Indicator light © comes on accom-
panied by the message “Check park-
ing brake”. With the ignition on, simul-
taneously depress the brake pedal and
press switch 2. If they do not go off, do
not drive the vehicle and contact an ap-
proved dealer.
Never leave a child (or
animal) alone in the vehi-
cle with the RENAULT card
inside. They could acci-
dentally release the parking brake
which would enable the vehicle to
roll away.
The parking brake can be released. To
release manually:
– remove the luggage compartment
carpet and the emergency spare
wheel cover;
– insert wheelbrace 4 into loop 6 and,
for vehicles without amplifier 7, press
on housing 5;
– pull (movement B) or push (move-
ment C) the top of wheelbrace 4
until the parking brake is heard to re-
lease.
Before releasing the park-
ing brake manually, it is es-
sential to immobilise the ve-
hicle by engaging first gear
(manual gearbox) or shifting to po-
sition (automatic transmission). If
the slope requires it, chock the vehi-
cle. If it is not possible to immobilise
the vehicle, do not operate the lever
and contact an approved Dealer.
A reminder can be found on the
label in area A.
