instrument panel RENAULT TWIZY 2017 1.G Owners Manual

1.6
Special cases
– At very high exterior temperatures, a safety mode is triggered. Warning
light
 comes on the instrument
panel. This mode reduces vehicle
power and can lead to its immobi-
lisation. We recommend that you
stop and allow the electrical system
to cool down, until the warning light
 goes off. The vehicle then re-
covers its performance.
– After a maximum charge for the trac- tion battery and during the first few
miles when driving the vehicle, or
during very low outside tempera-
tures, the engine brake is tempora-
rily reduced. Please adapt your dri-
ving style accordingly.
The engine brake should
under no circumstances be
used as a substitute for the
brake pedal.
Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through
floods if the depth of
water is above the
lower edge of the wheel
rims.
If a water level reaches
the vehicle floor, do not re-
charge the vehicle. Please
consult an authorised
dealer.
Risk of electric shock and a risk to
life.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (5/5)

1.12
Important: before starting the vehi-
cle, please make sure that the cord
is properly stored in its housing and
that the flap is fully closed.
When charging, make sure that the
charging cord 2 is not overstretched.
Do not pull the vehicle using the
charging cord.
If the stretch limiter 8 is damaged,
please replace the charging cord.
Please contact an authorised dealer.
Precautions to take when removing
from the socket
– Unplug the cord from the power supply by pulling out the plug. The
instrument panel goes out;
– reposition the cord 2 correctly in the
front storage compartment.
Depending on the vehicle, place the
end of the plug in its housing or the
cord connector facing down;
– close the flap 3 . Check that the
bonnet is correctly locked.
ELECTRIC VEHICLE: charging (5/5)

Special conditions
If it becomes impossible to unplug the
vehicle from the charging terminal (the
plug is mechanically locked), turn the
key as if to start the vehicle, switch off
the ignition, then switch on again.
Attempting to start the vehicle ends the
charging process and unlocks the plug
from the terminal.
Repeat this operation as many times as
is necessary.8

After each charge, it is normal to
hear a fan noise from the vehicle if it
is still plugged in.

1.21
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/3)
Side support belt
Please see the information on “Seat
belts” in Section 1.
Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
Airbag
This is fitted in the front seats.
An Airbag marking on the steering
wheel informs you of the presence of
this equipment.
The airbag system consists of:
– an airbag and its gas generator fitted on the steering wheel;
– an electronic unit for system monitor- ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– a single warning light
å on the
instrument panel.
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.

1.23
ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT
The air bag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both \
the air bags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection
system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times. If se\
at belts
are not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in\

the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superfi\
cial injuries
occurring when the air bag is deployed, although such minor injuries are\
always
possible with air bags.
The airbags are not always triggered if the vehicle overturns or in the \
event of a
rear impact, however severe. Impacts to the underside of the vehicle (s\
uch as
from a pavement or stones, etc.) can cause this system to be triggered.\
– Any work or modification to any part of the airbag system (airbags, ECU\
, wiring, etc.) is prohibited (except by qualified personnel from an authorised dealer).
– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidenta\
l trig- gering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified Network personnel
may work on the air bag system.
– As a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle \
has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and\
hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved dealer for disposal o\
f the gas generator(s).
Operating faults
This warning light 1 å will light up
on the instrument panel when the igni-
tion is switched on and then go out after
a few seconds.
If it does not come on when the ignition
is switched on, or if it comes on when
the engine is running, there is a fault
with the system (airbags, etc.) in the
front seats.
Contact your approved dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.
1All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructed in any
way when it is inflated and also to prevent the risk of serious injuries caused
by items which may be dislodged when the air bag inflates.
