tivation of power-assisted
steering.
There is a risk of accidents.
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone in your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or locking the
doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
Never switch off the igni-
tion before the vehicle has
stopped completely. Once
the engine has stopped, the
brake servo, power-assisted steer-
ing, etc. and the passive safety de-
vices such as air bags and preten-
sioners will no longer operate.

2.21
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-termediate gears.
You should always use the highest gear possible.
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Brake as little as possible. If you an- ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad-
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
– Do not try to maintain the same speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on flat ground. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only
use mats suitable for the
vehicle, attached with the
pre-fitted components, and check
the fitting regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
There is a risk of wedging the
pedals
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING (4/5)
– Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through
floods if the water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.
Driving advice, Eco-driving
Behaviour
– Drive carefully for the first few miles until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Dynamic driving with a lot of frequent acceleration and braking is expen-
sive on fuel in comparison to the time
saved.

TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (1/3)
If the vehicle is equipped with the func-
tion, this system monitors the tyre pres-
sure.
Operating principle
Each wheel (except for the emergency
spare wheel) has a sensor in the infla-
tion valve which periodically measures
the tyre pressure.
The system displays the current pres-
sures on the instrument panel 1 and
alerts the driver in the event of insuffi-
cient pressure.
2
1Resetting procedure
With the ignition on:
– repeatedly and briefly press control 2
to select the tyre pressure display
and, depending on the vehicle, the
«Tyre pressure» function;
– press and hold (around 3 seconds) the button 2 to launch the reset. The
flashing tyres followed by the mes-
sages «Learning TP initiated» and
then «Tyres location in progress» in-
dicates that the reset request for the
tyre pressure reference value has
been acknowledged.
Reset can take several minutes of driv-
ing.
If the resetting is followed by short trips,
the message “Tyres location in pro-
gress” can remain displayed after suc-
cessive restarts.
Note
The standard tyre pressure cannot be
less than that recommended and indi-
cated on the door frame.
3
Resetting the standard level
for the tyre pressures
This should be done:
– when the standard tyre pressure needs to be changed to adapt to
usage conditions (empty, carrying a
load, motorway driving, etc.);
– after swapping a wheel (however this practice is not recommended);
– after changing a wheel.
It should always be done after checking
the tyre pressure of all four tyres when
cold.
Tyre pressures must correspond to the
current usage of the vehicle (empty,
carrying a load, motorway driving, etc.).
Resetting can also be done from the
multifunction screen 3 if your vehi-
cle is fitted with a navigation system.
Select the menu “Vehicle”, “Tyre
pressure”.

“Puncture”
A wheel B is shown, depending on the
vehicle, in red or white accompanied
by the warning light 4
fixed, the
message “Puncture” and a beep.
This message appears along with the
® warning light. They indicate that
the affected wheel is punctured or se-
verely underinflated. Replace it or con-
tact an approved dealer if it is punc-
tured. Top up the tyre pressure if the
wheel is deflated.
“Check tyre pressure sensors”
A wheel A disappears, the warning
light 4
flashes for several sec-
onds then comes on continuously and
the message “Check tyre pressure sen-
sors” appears.
This message appears along with the
© warning light. They indicate that
at least one wheel is not fitted with sen-
sors (e.g. emergency spare wheel).
Otherwise, consult an authorised
dealer.
“Adjust tyre pressure”
A wheel B is shown, depending on the
vehicle, in orange or white accompa-
nied by the warning light
4
fixed
and the message “Adjust tyre pres-
sure”. They indicate that a wheel is de-
flated.
Check and, if necessary, readjust the
pressures of the four wheels when cold.
The warning light 4
goes off after
a few minutes’ driving.

2.27
Tyre repair product and
inflation kit
Because the valves are specially desi-
gned, only use equipment approved by
the approved network. Please refer to
“Tyre inflation kit” in Section 5.
Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip-
ment (wheels, tyres, hubcaps, etc.).
Please see the information on “Tyres”
in Section 5.
Contact an Approved Dealer to replace
the tyres and to find out about acces-
sories compatible with the system and
available from your dealer network: the
use of any other accessory could affect
the correct operation of the system.
Emergency spare wheel
If the vehicle is equipped with an emer- -
gency spare wheel, it will not have a
sensor.
TYRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (3/3)
Changing a wheel
The system may take seve-
ral minutes depending on
use for the new wheel po-
sitions and pressures to be recogni-
sed; check the tyre pressures after
all operations.
This function is an additio-
nal driving aid.
However, the function is
not intended to replace the
driver. It cannot, therefore, under
any circumstances replace the vi-
gilance or the responsibility of the
driver. Check the tyre pressures, in-
cluding the emergency spare wheel,
once a month.
“Tyres location in progress”
This message “Tyres location in pro-
gress” appears when driving if one or
more wheels have been fitted with sen-
sors not recognised by Renault.
Consult an approved dealer
Readjustment of tyre
pressures
The tyre pressures should be ad-
justed when cold (please refer to the
label located on the edge of the driver’s
door). If the tyre pressures cannot be
checked when the tyres are cold, the
recommended pressures should be in-
creased by 0.2 to 0.3 bar (3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
