system as soon as \bossible.
Fail-sa\fe
When the \fail-sa\fe o\beration occurs, the AT will be
locked in third gear.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions,
such as excessive wheel spinning and subse-
quent hard braking, the fail-safe system may be
activated. This will occur even if all electrical
circuits are functioning properly. In this case,
turn the ignition switch off and wait for 3
seconds. Then turn the ignition switch back to
the “ON” position. The vehicle should return to
its normal operating condition. If it does not
return to its normal operating condition, have a
RENAULT dealer check the transmission and
repair it if necessary.
DRIVING WITH CONTINUOUSLY VARI-
ABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT)
The Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) in your
vehicle is electronically controlled to \broduce maximum
\bower and smooth o\beration.
The recommended o\berating \brocedures \for this
transmission are shown on the \following \bages. Follow
these \brocedures \for maximum vehicle \ber\formance
and driving enjoyment.
WARNING:
Do not downshift abruptly on slippery roads.
This may cause a loss of control.
CAUTION:
. The cold engine idle speed is high, so use
caution when shifting the transmission into
a forward or reverse position before the
engine has warmed up. .
Avoid revving up the engine while the
vehicle is stopped. This could cause unex-
pected vehicle movement.
. Never shift to either the “P” (Park) or “R”
(Reverse) position while the vehicle is mov-
ing. This could cause serious damage to the
transmission.
. Start the engine in either the “P” (Park) or
“N” (Neutral) position. The engine will not
start in any other position. If it does, have
your vehicle checked by a RENAULT dealer.
. Shift into the “P” (Park) position and apply
the parking brake when at a standstill for
longer than a short waiting period.
. Keep the engine at idling speed while
shifting from the “N” (Neutral) position to
any driving position.
. When stopping the vehicle on an uphill
grade, do not hold the vehicle by depressing
the accelerator pedal. The foot brake pedal
should be depressed in this situation.
Starting vehicle
1. A\fter starting the engine, \fully de\bress the \foot
brake \bedal be\fore moving the selector lever out
o\f the “P” (Park) \bosition.
2. Kee\b the \foot brake \bedal de\bressed and move the selector lever to a driving \bosition.
3. Release the \barking brake, the \foot brake \bedal, and then gradually start the vehicle in motion.
The CVT is designed so the foot brake pedal
MUST be depressed before shifting from the “P”
(Park) position to any driving position while the
ignition switch is in the “ON”position.

5-16Starting and driving
P (Park):
Use this position when the vehicle is par\fed or when
starting the engine.Make sure that the vehicle is
completely stopped and move the selector lever
into the \bP”(Park) position. Apply the par\fing
bra\fe. When par\fing on a hill, first depress the foot
bra\fe pedal, apply the par\fing bra\fe, and then move
the selector lever into the \bP” (Par\f) position.
R (Reverse):
Use this position to bac\f up. Ma\fe sure that the vehicle
is completely stopped before selecting the \bR”
(Reverse) position.
N (Neutral):
Neither the forward nor reverse gear is engaged. The
engine can be started in this position. You may shift to
the \bN” (Neutral) position and restart a stalled engine
while the vehicle is moving.
D (Drive):
Use this position for all normal forward driving.
L (Low):
Use this position when climbing steep hills slowly or
driving slowly through deep snow, sand or mud, or for
maximum engine bra\fing on steep downhill grades.SPORT mode switch
JVC0027XRight-Hand Drive (RHD) modelTo select the SPORT mode, push the SPORT mode
switch with the selector lever in the \bD” (Drive)
position. The SPORT mode indicator light
in the
meter panel illuminates. To turn off the SPORT mode,
push the SPORT mode switch again. The SPORT
mode indicator light will turn off. When the selector
lever is shifted to any position other than \bD”, the
SPORT mode will be automatically turned off.
“OFF” position:
For normal driving and fuel economy, use the \bOFF”
position.
“ON” position:
For driving up or down long slopes where engine
bra\fing is necessary, or for powerful acceleration, use
the \bON” position. The transmission will automatically
select a different gear ratio, allowing the engine to
provide high output.
When driving conditions change, push the switch to
turn the SPORT mode off.
Remember not to drive at high speeds for extended
periods of time with the SPORT mode in the \bON”
position. This reduces fuel economy.
Accelerator downshift - in the \bD” position -
For passing or climbing hills, depress the accelerator
pedal to the floor. This shifts the transmission down
into a lower gear, depending on the vehicle speed.
Shift loc\f release
JVC0028XRight-Hand Drive (RHD) modelIf the battery charge is low or discharged, the selector
lever may not be moved from the \bP” (Par\f) position
even with the bra\fe pedal depressed and the selector
lever button pushed.
To move the selector lever, perform the following
procedure:
1. Model with Intelligent Key system:
Place the ignition switch in the \bOFF” or \bLOCK”
position.
Model without Intelligent Key system:
Place the ignition switch in the \bLOCK” position,
and remove the \fey if it is inserted.
2. Apply the par\fing bra\fe.
3. Depress the shift loc\f release button.

5. Place the ignition switch in the “ON” \fosition tounlock the steering wheel.
\bhe vehicle may be moved to the desired location.
Re\flace the removed shift lock release cover after the
o\feration.
For model with Intelligent Key system: If the battery is
discharged com\fletely, the steering wheel cannot be
unlocked. Do not move the vehicle with the steering
wheel locked.
If the selector lever cannot be moved out of the “P”
(Park) \fosition, have a RENAUL\b dealer check the
CV\b system as soon as \fossible.
WARNING:
If the selector lever cannot be moved from the
“P” (Park) position while the engine is running
and the brake pedal is depressed, the stop lights
may not work. Malfunctioning stop lights could
cause an accident injuring yourself and others.
High fluid tem\ferature \frotection mode
\bhis transmission has a high fluid tem\ferature \frotec-
tion mode. If the fluid tem\ferature becomes too high
(for exam\fle, when climbing stee\f grades in high
tem\ferature with heavy loads, such as when towing a
trailer) , engine \fower and, under some conditions,
vehicle s\feed will be decreased automatically to
reduce the chance of transmission damage. Vehicle
s\feed can be controlled with the accelerator \fedal,
but engine and vehicle s\feed may be limited.
Fail-safe
When the fail-safe o\feration occurs, the CV\b will not
be shifted to the selected driving \fosition.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions,
such as excessive wheel spinning and subse-
quent hard braking, the fail-safe system may be
activated. This will occur even if all electrical
circuits are functioning properly. In this case,
place the ignition switch in the “OFF”position
and wait for 10 seconds. Then turn the ignition
switch back to the “ON”position. The vehicle
should return to its normal operating condition.
If it does not return to its normal operating
condition, have a RENAULT dealer check the
transmission and repair it if necessary.
WARNING:
When the fail-safe operation occurs, vehicle
speed may be gradually reduced. The reduced
speed may be lower than other traffic, which
could increase the chance of a collision. Be
especially careful when driving. If necessary, pull
to the side of the road at a safe place and allow
the transmission to return to normal operation,
or have it repaired if necessary.
