Start RENAULT TALISMAN 2016 1.G Owners Manual

5.27
Starting the vehicle using the
battery from another vehicle
If you have to use the battery from ano-
ther vehicle to start, obtain suitable
jump leads (with a large cross sec-
tion) from an approved dealer or, if you
already have jump leads, ensure that
they are in perfect condition.
The two batteries must have an iden-
tical nominal voltage of 12 volts. The
battery supplying the current should
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah) which
is at least the same as that of the dis-
charged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of contact
between the two vehicles (risk of short
circuiting when the positive terminals
are connected) and that the discharged
battery is properly connected. Switch
off your vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle sup-
plying the current and run it at a mode-
rate speed.

Lift the box cover 3 located behind the
battery, then lift the battery half-cover 4.
Connect the positive cable A to sup-
port 1 (+) located under the box
cover 3, then to terminal 5 (+) of the
battery supplying the current.
Connect the negative cable B to ter-
minal 6 (–) of the battery supplying the
current then to the metal cable 2 (–) of
the discharged battery.
Start the engine, and as soon as it starts
running, disconnect cables A and B in
reverse order ( 2 - 6 - 5 - 1).

Check that there is no
contact between leads A
and B and that the positive
lead A is not touching any
metal parts on the vehicle supplying
the current.
Risk of injury and/or damage to the
vehicle.

Operating faults
If the battery is too weak to ensure cor-
rect operation, you can still start and
lock/unlock the vehicle (please refer to
the information on “Locking/unlocking
the opening elements” in Section 1).
RENAULT CARD: battery
Replacing the battery
When the message “Keycard battery
low” appears on the instrument panel,
replace the battery in the RENAULT
card:
– slide the rear casing 1 downwards
while pressing on zone A;
– remove the battery cover 2;
– remove the battery by pressing on
one side and lifting the other;
– replace it according to the direc-
tion and template shown inside the
cover.
Do not throw away your
used batteries; give them to
an organisation responsible
for collecting and recycling
batteries.
When refitting, proceed in the reverse
order, then press one of the buttons on
the card four times, close to the vehicle:
the message will disappear.
Note: it is not advisable to touch the
electronic circuit or contacts on the
RENAULT card when replacing the bat-
tery.
The batteries are available from ap-
proved Dealers, and their service
life approximately two years. Check
that there is no dye on the battery:
risk of an incorrect electrical con-
tact.

WIPER BLADES: replacement (1/2)
Windscreen wiper blades 1
With the ignition on and the engine
switched off, lower the windscreen
wiper stalk fully: the blades stop slightly
away from the bonnet.
Lift wiper arm 2 , press button 3 to re-
lease the blade.

32
Refitting
Slide the blade along the arm until
it clips on. Check that it is correctly
locked in place. Lower the windscreen
wiper arm carefully.
With the ignition on, return the wind-
screen wiper stalk to the stop position.
The blade on the driver’s side must
always be above the passenger blade.
If this is not the case, a quick sweep of
the windscreen wipers should be per-
formed once the vehicle is travelling at
over 7 km/h (4 mph).
Note: Before restarting your vehicle,
lower the windscreen wiper blades
onto the windscreen to avoid any risk
of damaging the bonnet or the wipers.
– In frosty weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the motor
overheating or damaging the
blades).
– Check the condition of the wiper
blades.
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
Whilst changing the blade, take care
not to drop the arm onto the window
after it has been removed as this
may break the window.
Do not activate the wipers on a dry
screen. This will lead to premature
wear or damage to the blades.

5.33
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).
The column is unlocked, the acces-
sory functions are supplied: the vehi-
cle lights can be used (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 in neutral position N over a maxi-
mum distance of 50 miles and not ex-
ceeding a speed of 15 mph (25 km/h).
3
If the lever is stuck in P , even though
you are depressing the brake pedal, the
lever can be released manually.
To do this, unclip the flap 2, then insert a
tool (with a hard rod to it) into the hole 1
and press the button 3 at the same time
in order to unlock the lever.
Contact an authorised dealer as soon
as possible.
