Starting the engine
In very cold conditions (temperatures
below –20°C): so that it is easier to
start the engine, switch on the ignition
for several seconds before starting the
engine.
Feature when starting the engine, if the
outdoor temperature is very low (below
- 10 ° C): hold down the clutch pedal
until the engine starts.
– Petrol injection
engine warm or cold:
– activate the starter without ac-
celerating;
– release the key as soon as the
engine starts.ÉDiesel injection indicator
light
Turn the ignition key to the “Ignition
on” position and hold this position
until the preheating indicator light
goes out.
Turn the key to the “Start” position
without depressing the accelera -
tor pedal. Release the key as soon
as the engine starts.
Stopping the engine
With the engine idling, turn the key
back to the “Stop” position.
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the key inside the vehi-
cle and never leave a child
(or a pet) unsupervised, even for a
short while.
There is a risk that they could start
the engine or operate electrical
equipment (electric windows etc.)
and trap part of their body (neck,
arms, hands, etc.).
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition
before the vehicle has stopped
completely . Once the engine has
stopped, the brake servo, pow -
erassisted steering, etc., and the
passive safety devices such as
air bags and pretensioners will no
longer operate.
The steering is locked when the key
is removed.

Special features of petrol versions
SPecIAl NoteS oN PetRol veRSIoNS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives
which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition system, running out of
fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle. If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu
-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance Document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con -
verter, do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
keep trying to start the engine, but con-
tact an approved Dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub -
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.

Conseils antipollution, économies de carburant, conduite (X44 - E33 - Renault)
ENG_NU_952-4_X44_Renault_2
ADvIce: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (3/3)
Advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the
electrical components which are
not really needed. however (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel con -sumption by
4%.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.
– For vehicles fitted with air condi -
tioning , it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es -
pecially in city conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore 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 mo -
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack
fitted to the vehicle.
– It is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob-
jects.
– Avoid using the vehicle for door -
to-door calls (short journeys with
long waits in between) because the
engine never reaches its normal op-
erating temperature.
t yres
– An under-inflated tyre increases fuel
consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres
can increase fuel consumption.

Adjusting the ventilation
speed
Turn control C from 0 to 4.
The passenger compartment is ven -
tilated by blown air. The blower deter -
mines how much air enters but vehicle
speed has a slight effect on this.
The further the control is positioned to
the right, the greater the amount of air
blown into the passenger compartment.

Air recirculation operation
(isolation of the passenger
compartment)
Turn control D towards air recirculation
symbol
â.
In these conditions air is taken from the
passenger compartment and is recircu-
lated, with no air being taken from out-
side the vehicle. Air recirculation is for:
–
isolating the vehicle from the exter -
nal atmosphere (driving in polluted
areas, etc.);
– bringing the passenger compartment
to the desired temperature as quickly
as possible.
Prolonged use of this position (iso -
lation mode) may mist up the win -
dows slightly or cause odours due
to the air not being renewed.
It is therefore advisable to return to
normal operation (external air) by
pressing control D when you have
passed through the polluted area.

The system cannot be switched on if

Using the air conditioning system ena-
bles you to:
– lower the internal passenger com -
partment temperature, especially in
hot weather, when driving in traffic or
when the vehicle has been parked in
the sun;
– reduce the humidity of the air blown
into the passenger compartment (re-
moval of condensation).
Fuel consumption increases when the
air conditioning system is being used
(switch it off when it is not required). Note: The air conditioning may be used
in all conditions but does not operate
when the external temperature is low.
