electrical and electronic accessories

Before installing this type of accessory, make sure it is compatible with your vehicle. You can get advice from an au-

thorised dealer.
Connect accessories with a maximum power of 120 watts only.

Fire hazard.

No work may be carried out on the vehicle’s electrical or radio circuits, except by authorised dealers: an incorrectly connected

system may result in damage being caused to the electrical equipment and/or the components connected to it.
If the vehicle is fitted with any aftermarket electrical equipment, make sure that the installation is correctly protected by a fuse.

Establish the rating and position of this fuse.

use of transmission/receiving devices (telephones, cB equipment etc.).

Telephones and CB equipment with integrated aerials may cause interference to the electronic systems originally fitted to the

vehicle: it is advisable only to use equipment with an external aerial.

Furthermore, we remind you of the need to conform

to the legislation in force concerning the use of such equipment.

Fitting after-market accessories

If you wish to install accessories on the vehicle: please contact an authorised dealer. Also, to ensure the correct operation of

your vehicle, and to avoid any risk to your safety, we recommend that you use only accessories specifically designed for your

vehicle, which are the only accessories for which the manufacturer will provide a warranty.
If you are using an anti-theft device, only attach it to the brake pedal.
Obstructions to the driver

On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with the pre-fitted components, and check the fitting regu-

larly. Do not lay one mat on top of another.

replacing windscreen wiper

blades 1

With the ignition on and engine

switched off, lower the windscreen

wiper stalk completely: they stop

slightly away from the bonnet.

Lift wiper arm 3, pull tab 2 (move-

ment A) and push the blade upwards.
to refit

Slide the blade along the arm until it

clips on. Make sure that the blade is

correctly locked in position. Return the

windscreen wiper stalk to the park po-

sition.

– In frosty weather, make

sure that the wiper blades

are not stuck by ice (to

avoid the risk of the motor

overheating).

– Check the condition of the wiper

blades. Replace the wiper blades

as soon as they begin to lose ef-

ficiency (approximately once a

year).

Whilst changing the blade, take care

not to drop the arm onto the window

after it has been removed as this

may break the window.

Check the condition of the wiper

blades. You are responsible for their

service life:

– clean the blades, windscreen and

rear screen regularly with soapy

water;

– do not use them when the wind-

screen or rear screen are dry;

– free them from the windscreen or

rear screen when they have not

been used for a long time.

– Lift wiper arm 6;
– pivot blade 4 until some resistance is

met (movement C);

– depending on the vehicle, press

tab 5, then remove the blade by pull-

ing it (movement B).

to refit
To refit the wiper blade, proceed in re-

verse order to removal. Make sure that

the blade is correctly locked in position.

Towing

tOWInG: breakdown

Before towing, unlock the steering

column: with the clutch depressed,

engage

first gear (lever in position n

r for vehicles with automatic trans-

missions), insert the RENAULT card in

the card reader then press the engine

start button for

two seconds.

The column is unlocked, the acces-

sory functions are supplied: the vehi-

cle lights can be used (indicators, brake

lights etc.). At night the vehicle must

have its lights on.
Once you have finished towing, press

the engine start button twice (risk of

running down the battery).
The speed specified by current legis-

lation for towing must always be ob-

served. If your vehicle is the towing

vehicle, do not exceed the maximum

towing weight for your vehicle (refer to

the information on “Weights” in Section

6).

towing a vehicle with an

automatic gearbox

With the engine switched off, the trans-

mission is no longer lubricated. It is

preferable to tow this type of vehicle on

a trailer or tow it with the front wheels

off the ground.
under exceptional circumstances,

you may tow the vehicle with all four

wheels on the ground, only going for-

ward, with the gear lever in the

n posi-

tion, and for a distance not exceeding

30 miles (50 km).

Do not remove the

RENAULT card from the

reader when the vehicle is

being towed.

If the lever is stuck in

even though you are de-

pressing the brake pedal,

the lever can be released

manually. To do this, insert a rigid

rod in the hole 1, press the rod and

unlocking button located on the gear

lever knob simultaneously.

ENG_NU_936-5_BK91_Renault_5

tOWInG: breakdown

(continued)

Only use the front 3 and rear 5

towing points (never use the drive-

shafts or any other part of the vehicle).

These towing points may only be used

for towing: never use them for lifting the

vehicle directly or indirectly.

When the engine is

stopped, steering and brak-

ing assistance are not op-

erational.

Access to towing points

Unclip cover 2 or 6 by sliding a flat tool

(or the key integrated in the RENAULT

card) under the cover.
Screw in towing hitch 4 fully: as much

as possible by hand at first, then finish

by tightening it using the wheelbrace.
Use only towing hitch 4 and the wheel-

brace located under the luggage com-

partment carpet in the tool kit (refer

to the information on the “Tool kit” in

Section 5).

– Use a rigid towing bar.

If a rope or cable is used

(where the law allows this),

the vehicle being towed

must be able to brake.

– A vehicle must not be towed if it is

not fit to be driven.

– Avoid accelerating or braking

suddenly when towing, as this

may result in damage being

caused to the vehicle.

– When towing a vehicle, it is ad-

visable not to exceed

15 mph

(25 km/h).

Do not leave the tools unse-

cured inside the vehicle as

they may come loose under

braking.

After use, check that all the tools

are correctly clipped into the tool kit,

then, depending on the vehicle, po-

sition it correctly in its housing.
Risk of injury.

your approved dealer.

Weights are indicated on the vehicle identification plate (refer to

permissible nose weight*

permissible load on the roof with the carrying device

80 kg (including the carrying device)

* towing weight (towing a caravan, boat, etc.)
Towing is prohibited when the MTR - MMAC calculation is equal to zero, or when the MTR is equal to zero (or is not listed) on the

identification plate.

– It is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in particular, laid down in

the Road Traffic Regulations. Contact your approved dealer about any towing equipment.

– When towing, under no circumstances may

the total train weight (vehicle + trailer) be exceeded. However the following is

permitted:

– rear axle MMTA exceeded by no more than 15%,

– maximum MMAC exceeded by no more than 10% or 100 kg (whichever is reached first).

In either case, the maximum speed of the vehicle and trailer must not exceed 60 mph (100 kph) and the tyre pressures must

be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).

– The engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by 10%

at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,000 metres thereafter.

Weight transfer

The towing load must not exceed 1,500 kg.

If the Maximum Authorised Mass of the vehicle has not been reached, up to 200 kg can be transferred to the braked trailer, within

the limits of the Gross Train Weight.
