Special notes

• During a cold start of the range extender, engine speed is limited for approximately one to two minutes until the operating temperature is reached. During this time, no energy is supplied to the electric motor.
• If you request the range extender when the traction battery charge is at zero, the vehicle speed will be limited to 70 km/h and acceleration will be reduced. Performance will be degraded.
• Below 10% traction battery charge, the range extender engine speed will be higher in order to supply energy quickly.
• Using the range extender is not recommended above 80% traction battery charge, except when you voluntarily need cabin heating.

Indicator light 2 comes on

• Steady green: the range extender is operating.
• Steady amber: range extender fault. Consult your RENAULT dealer.
• Flashing green: range extender start-up phase.

Fuel tank

Usable tank capacity: approximately 9.5 litres.

Use unleaded petrol only.

The low fuel warning light comes on when only one litre of fuel remains in the tank.

Always fill the tank completely for the fuel gauge to work correctly.
