ASSISTED PARKING (2/4)
Choice of manoeuvre
The system can perform four types of
manoeuvres:
– parallel parking;
– perpendicular parking;
– angle parking;
– moving out of a parallel parking space.
From the multifunction screen, select
the manoeuvre to be performed.
Note: when starting the vehicle, or after
having successfully completed parallel
parking using the system, the default
manoeuvre proposed by the system is
assistance in exiting a parallel parking
space. In other cases, the default ma-
noeuvre can be set from the multifunc-
tion screen.
Operation
Parking
As long as the vehicle speed is less
than 20 mph (30 km/h), the system
looks for available parking spaces on
both sides of the vehicle.
Once a space has been found, it is dis-
played on the multifunction screen, in-
dicated by a small letter “P”. So that
the vehicle can detect a space, drive
slowly, with the indicators activated on
the same side as the space, until the
message “Stop” is displayed, along
with a beep.
The space is then indicated on the mul-
tifunction screen by a capital “P”.
– Stop the vehicle;
– select reverse gear.
The
 indicator light lights up
on the instrument panel and a beep
sounds;
– release the steering wheel;
– follow the system instructions pro- vided on the multifunction screen. Your speed should not exceed around 4
mph (7 km/h).
Once the warning light
 on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.

2.91
ASSISTED PARKING (3/4)
Your speed should not exceed around
4 mph (7 km/h).
Once in position to exit the space, the
system will notify you of the end of the
manoeuvre.
Once the warning light
 on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.
Suspending the manoeuvreThe manoeuvre is suspended in the fol-
lowing circumstances:
– you take control of the wheel;
– a door or the boot is opened;
– the vehicle is at a standstill for too long;
– an obstacle in the direction of move- ment prevents the manoeuvre from
being completed;
– the engine will stop.
Once the warning light
 on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been sus-
pended. To resume the manoeuvre,
press and hold the system activation
switch. In this case, the reason for suspending
the manoeuvre will be displayed on the
multifunction screen.
Make sure:
– you have released the steering
wheel;
and
– that all doors and the boot are closed;
and
– that no obstacles are in the way of the direction of movement;
and
– that the engine is started.
Cancelling the manoeuvre
The manoeuvre can be stopped in the
following cases:
– by pressing the system activation switch;
– the vehicle speed has exceeded 4 mph (7 km/h);
– you have performed more than ten forwards/backwards movements in
one manoeuvre;
– the parking distance control sensors are dirty or blocked;
– the vehicle wheels have skidded.
Once the warning light
 on the
instrument panel goes off and a beep
sounds, the manoeuvre has been com-
pleted.
Exiting a parallel parking space
– Select “Exit parallel parking space” mode;
– activate the direction indicator on the side you wish to go out of;
– press and hold switch 1 (around
2 seconds).
The
 indicator light lights up
on the instrument panel and a beep
sounds;
– release the steering wheel;
– go forwards and backwards using the parking distance control system
alerts.

ASSISTED PARKING (4/4)
This function is an additional driving aid. This function is not under any circumstances intended to replace the due\
care
and attention of the driver, who should at all times be in control of the vehicle.
Make sure that the manoeuvre complies with the applicable traffic regulations at your location.
– The driver should always be ready for sudden incidents while driving: al\
ways ensure that there are no small, narrow moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pushchair, bicycle, stone, post etc.) in the blind spot when manoeuvring.
– The system cannot detect objects located in the sensor blind spots.
– When manoeuvring, the steering wheel may turn quickly: do not put your h\
ands inside, and make sure that nothing is caught inside.
– Always visually check that the parking space proposed by the system is s\
till available and contains no obstacles.
– The system should only be used when towing a trailer or when there is a \
towing or load carrying system on the vehicle.

MULTI-SENSE (1/2)
The Multi-Sense system enables once
of five modes to be selected which, de-
pending on the vehicle, affect the drive,
the light environment, the comfort and
the engine noise:
– modes Comfort , Neutral, Eco and Sport are preset and associated with
customisable light environments and
engine noise;
– mode Perso is fully customisable.
The drive modes affect the:
– power-assisted steering;
– engine and gearbox responsiveness;
– heating level.
They also affect the:
– passenger compartment and instru- ment panel lighting;
– instrument panel and multifunction screen information;
– engine noise;
– massage seat.
After each start-up, the vehicle uses the
mode set at the time the engine was
last switched off.
Mode Comfort
This mode favours smooth steering.
The interior environment is softened.
Mode Neutral
Default mode, mode Neutral selects the
vehicle factory settings.
Mode Eco
Mode Eco is geared towards saving
energy and the environment. The
steering is smooth, engine and gearbox
management enable fuel consumption
to be lowered. Air conditioning is man-
aged to be used only when necessary.
Please refer to the information on
“Driving advice, Eco-driving” in
Section 2.

TOWING: breakdown (1/2)
Before towing, put the gearbox in neu-
tral, unlock the steering column and re-
lease the parking brake.
For vehicles fitted with an automatic
gearbox, if it is not possible to put the
gear lever into position N, please con-
sult an authorised dealer.
Steering column unlocking
Insert the key into the ignition or, de-
pending on the vehicle, with the
RENAULT card on you, press the
engine start button for approximately
2 seconds.
Reposition the lever to neutral (posi-
tion N for vehicles fitted with an auto-
matic gearbox).

cessory functions are powered: you
can use the vehicle’s lights (direction
indicators, brake lights, etc.). At night
the vehicle must have its lights on.
Depending on the vehicle, once you
have finished towing, press the engine
start button twice (risk of running down
the battery). The speed specified by current legis-
lation for towing must always be ob-
served. If your vehicle is the towing
vehicle, do not exceed the maximum
towing weight for your vehicle (refer to
the information on “Weights” in
Section 6).
Towing a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox
Transport the vehicle on a trailer or tow
it with the front wheels off the ground.
In exceptional circumstances
, you
may tow it with all four wheels on the
ground, only in a forward gear, with the
gear lever in neutral position N over a
maximum distance of 50 miles (80 km)
and at a maximum speed of 16 mph
(25 km/h).
When activated, in the event that the
lever is stuck in P , depress the brake
paddle. It is possible to free the lever
manually. To do this, unclip the base of
the lever, then insert a tool (rigid rod)
into the slot 2 (located on the right of
the lever) and press simultaneously on
the button 1 to unlock the lever.

– Use a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),

– Avoid accelerating or braking suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage being
caused to the vehicle.
– In all cases, it is advisable not to exceed 15.5 mph (25 km/h).
When the engine is
stopped, steering and brak-
