PROACTIVE AUTOMATIC GEARBOX (continued)
How to drive as economically as
possible
Leave the selector in position D
(drive) on the open road. Press the
accelerator pedal lightly to ensure
gear changes at comparatively low
engine speeds.
Do not use positions D3, 2, 1 or the
winter position for normal driving
conditions.
Stopping the vehicle
When the vehicle is stationary,
keeping your foot on the brake
pedal, move the lever to position P
(park): the gearbox is in neutral and
the drive wheels are mechanically
locked by the transmission.
Apply the handbrake.
Operating incidents
• If the lever becomes jammed in P
position, even though you are
pressing down the brake pedal,
the lever can be released
manually.
To do this, unclip cover H.
Press on both the raised part I and
the unlocking button A at the
same time to move the lever from
position P.
• If this tell-tale light comes
on when driving,it
indicates a fault.
Consult your Renault Dealer as
soon as possible.
• If a vehicle with an automatic
gearbox breaks down, see the
information on towing in
section 5 for further instructions.
