AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL: Controls B and C (1/5)
Indicators
The following indicators are displayed
on the screen 3:
1 Active mode, ventilation speed and air distribution in the passenger com-
partment (temporary display after
pressing the associated controls).
2 Outside air temperature.
4 Air temperature, left and right.
Automatic mode
The automatic climate control system
guarantees comfort in the passen-
ger compartment and good visibility
(except in the event of extreme condi-
tions), while optimising consumption.
The system controls the ventilation
speed, air distribution, air recirculation,
and starting and stopping the air condi-
tioning and air temperature.
This mode consists of a choice of three
programmes:
AUTO: allows the selected comfort
level to be best attained, depending
on the exterior conditions. Press the
button 15.
SOFT: reaches the desired comfort
level more gently and silently. Press the
button 14.
FAST: increases the flow of air in the
passenger compartment. This mode is
recommended in particular to optimise
comfort in the rear seats. Press the
button 16.
10
Some buttons have a warning light
indicating their operative state.

Operating faults
As a general rule, contact your ap-
proved dealer in the event of an oper-
ating fault.
– Reduction in de-icing, demisting or air conditioning performance.
This may be caused by the passen-
ger compartment filter cartridge be-
coming clogged.
– No cold air is being produced .
Check that the controls are set cor-
rectly and that the fuses are sound.
Otherwise, switch off the system.
Presence of water under the
vehicle
After prolonged use of the air condi-
tioning system, it is normal for water
to be present under the vehicle. This is
caused by condensation.
AIR CONDITIONING: information and operating instructions (1/2)
Do not add anything to the
vehicle’s ventilation circuit
(for example, to remove
bad odours).
There is a risk of damage or of
fire.
Do not open the refriger-
ant fluid circuit. The fluid
may damage eyes or skin.
Fuel consumption
You will normally notice an increase in
fuel consumption (especially in town)
when the air conditioning is operating.
For vehicles fitted with air conditioning
with no automatic mode, switch off the
system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and helping to preserve the
environment
Drive with the air vents open and the
windows closed. If the vehicle has been
parked in the sun, open the doors for a
few moments to let the hot air escape
before starting the engine.
MaintenanceRefer to the Maintenance Document
for your vehicle for the inspection fre-
quency.
Advice on use
In some situations (air conditioning off,
air recirculation activated, ventilation
speed at zero or low etc.), you may
notice that condensation starts to form
on the windows and windscreen.
If there is condensation, use the “Clear
View” function to remove it, then use
the air conditioning in automatic mode
to stop it forming again.
Use the air conditioning system reg-
ularly, even in cold weather, running
it at least once a month for approxi-
mately 5 minutes.
Vehicles equipped with ECO
mode: once activated, ECO mode
may reduce the performance of the
air conditioning. Please refer to the
information on “Driving advice, Eco-
driving” in Section 2.

3.23
ELECTRIC WINDOWS (2/2)
Operating faults
In case of a fault when closing a
window, the system reverts to normal
mode: pull the switch as many times as
necessary until the window closes com-
pletely, hold the switch (still on the clo-
sing side) for around one second, then
completely lower then raise the window
to reset the system.
If necessary, contact an approved
Dealer.
When closing the windows,
ensure that no part of the
body (arm, hand, etc.) is
protruding from the vehicle.
Risk of serious injury.
One-touch mode
This mode works in addition to the ope-
ration of the electric windows described
previously.
Briefly press or pull the window switch
fully: the window is fully lowered or
raised. Pressing the switch again stops
the window moving.
Note: if the window detects resistance
when closing (e.g.: branch of a tree,
etc.) it stops and then lowers again by a
few centimetres.
Remote control window closing
(vehicles with 4 one-touch electric win-
dows).
When you lock the doors from the out-
side, press the locking button on the
RENAULTcard twice in quick suc-
cession, or on the driver’s door in
hands-free mode, and all the windows
will close automatically (and, depend-
ing on the vehicle, the sunroof).
It is recommended that the user only
operates the system when the vehi-
cle can be seen clearly and no one is
inside.
