Renault Master (2018 year). Instruction — part 8
2.4
For manual gearboxes:
– the gearbox is in neutral;
and
– the clutch pedal is released.
If warning light
flashes, this
means that the clutch pedal is not suf-
ficiently released.
and
– the vehicle speed is less than ap-
proximately 2 mph (3 km/h).
The engine will restart when you press
the clutch pedal and move into gear.
For all vehicles:
Warning light
on the instru-
ment panel is lit when the engine is on
standby.
The vehicle equipment remain opera-
tional while the engine is stopped.
STOP AND START FUNCTION
(1/3)
Do not drive off when the
engine is on standby (warn-
ing light
is displayed
on the instrument panel).
If you get out of the vehicle, a beep
notifies you that the engine is on
standby and has not been switched
off.
This system enables a reduced fuel
consumption and lower greenhouse
gas emissions.
The system is activated automatically
when the vehicle is started.
While driving, the system stops the
engine (standby) when the vehicle is
at a standstill (traffic jam, traffic lights,
etc).
Conditions for engine
standby
The vehicle has set off from where it
was parked;
For sequential gearbox:
– the gearbox is in position A, Mor N;
and
– the brake pedal is depressed (suffi-
ciently hard);
and
– the accelerator pedal is not de-
pressed;
and
– the speed is zero for around
1 second.
The engine remains on standby if posi-
tion P is selected, or if position N is se-
lected with the handbrake engaged and
the brake pedal released.
If the engine stalls while the system
is in operation, pressing the clutch
pedal right down will start it again.
Before leaving the vehicle,
the engine must be stopped
and not put on standby
(please see the information
on “Starting, stopping the engine” in
Section 2).

2.7
SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
– make sure that the battery is always
fully charged;
– always keep the diesel tank rela-
tively full to prevent water vapour
condensing in it and accumulating at
the bottom of the tank.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with an injec-
tion pump with an electronic regulator
which prevents overrevving of the
engine irrespective of the gear en-
gaged.
If the
Ä
and
©
warning lights
come on, consult an approved dealer
as soon as possible.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Running out of fuel
You may start the engine normally after
refilling the fuel tank even if you have
completely run out of fuel, provided
that the battery is fully charged.
However, if the engine does not start
after a few seconds and several at-
tempts, refer to the information on the
“Fuel tank” in Section 1.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
2.8
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING
(1/4)
Fuel consumption is accredited in ac-
cordance with a standard regulatory
method. Identical for all manufactu-
rers, this enables vehicles to be com-
pared with one another. Consumption
in real time depends on vehicle usage
conditions, the equipment fitted and the
user’s driving style. To optimise fuel
consumption, please refer to the fol-
lowing advice.
Depending on the vehicle, you will have
various functions which enable you to
lower your fuel consumption:
– the rev counter;
– gear change indicator;
– the journey record and eco-driving
advice via the multimedia display;
– ECO mode – activated by the ECO
button.
If fitted on the vehicle, the navigation
system provides additional information.
Gear change indicator 1
and 2
(depending on vehicle)
To obtain optimum consumption levels,
a warning light on the instrument panel
lets you know the best time to move
up a gear, or down a gear for vehicles
where this is fitted:
Š
move up a gear;
‰
move down a gear.

DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING
(2/4)
ECO mode
ECO mode is a function which op-
timises fuel consumption. It acts on
certain power consuming systems in
the vehicle (heating, air conditioning,
power-assisted steering, etc.) and on
certain driving actions (acceleration,
gear changing, cruise control, deceler-
ation, etc.).
Activating the function
Press switch 4.
The warning light in the 4 switch lights
up.
While driving, it is possible to leave the
ECO mode temporarily in order to im-
prove engine performance.
Depress the accelerator pedal firmly
and fully.
ECO mode is reactivated when you
take pressure off the accelerator pedal.
Disabling the function
Press switch 4.
The indicator light in the switch 4 goes
out.

An overall rating from 0 to 100 is dis-
played to let you assess your eco driv-
ing performance. The higher the rating,
the lower the fuel consumption.
Eco advice is given to help improve
your performance.
With your favourite journeys saved, you
can evaluate your performance.
For more information, please see the
multimedia system instructions.
Journey record
Once the engine is switched off, you
will see “Journey record” displayed on
the screen 3, enabling you to view in-
formation relating to your last journey.
This indicates:
– average fuel consumption;
– number of miles/kilometres travelled;
– number of miles/kilometres saved.

2.10
Driving advice, Eco-driving
Behaviour
– Drive carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
– Speed is expensive.
– Sporty driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
– Do not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears.
You should always use the highest
gear possible.
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING
(3/4)
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 regularly. Do not lay one
mat on top of another.
There is a risk of wedging the
pedals
– Avoid sudden acceleration.
– Brake as little as possible. If you an-
ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad-
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
– Do not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
– Double declutching and accelerating
before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
– Bad weather, flooded roads:
Do not drive through
floods if the water is
above the lower edge of
the wheel rims.
2.11
DRIVING ADVICE, ECO-DRIVING
(4/4)
Advice on use
– Favour ECO mode.
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the
electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
– Use the air vents. Driving with the
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%.
– Never fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
– In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
– Do not leave an empty roof rack
fitted to the vehicle.
– When towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.
Tyres
– An underinflated tyre increases fuel
consumption.
– The use of non-recommended tyres
can increase fuel consumption.
2.12
MAINTENANCE AND ANTIPOLLUTION ADVICE
Your vehicle complies with criteria for
recycling and recovering vehicles at the
end of their service life, which entered
into force in 2015.
Some parts of your vehicle have there-
fore been designed to facilitate future
recycling.
These parts are easy to remove so
that they can be recovered and reproc-
essed by recycling companies.
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel
consumption and initial settings, your
vehicle also conforms to current anti-
pollution regulations. The manufac-
turer is actively striving to reduce pol-
lutant exhaust gas emissions and to
save energy. But the fuel consumption
of your vehicle and the level of pollutant
exhaust gas emissions are also your
responsibility. Ensure that it is main-
tained and used correctly.
Maintenance
It is important to remember that failure to
respect antipollution regulations could
lead to legal action being taken against
the vehicle owner. In addition, replacing
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust
components with parts other than those
originally recommended by the manu-
facturer may alter your vehicle so that
it no longer complies with antipollution
regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and
checked by an approved Dealer, in ac-
cordance with the instructions given in
your maintenance schedule: they will
have all the equipment necessary for
ensuring that your vehicle is maintained
to its original standard.
Engine adjustments
– Air filter, diesel filter: a choked el-
ement will reduce efficiency. It must
be replaced.
– Idle speed: this does not require ad-
justment.
Exhaust gas monitoring
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub-
stances may be released into the at-
mosphere or damage may occur.
Ä
This warning light on the in-
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an
approved Dealer as soon as possi-
ble;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.
Refer to the information on
«Additive tank» in Section 1.
2.13
ENVIRONMENT
Emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to
emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2)
while in use, and therefore to consume
less fuel (eg. 140 g/km, equivalent to
5.3 l/100 km for a diesel vehicle).
Our vehicles are also equipped with a
particle filter system including a cata-
lytic converter, an oxygen sensor and
an active carbon filter (the latter pre-
vents vapour from the fuel tank being
released into the open air).
For certain diesel vehicles, this system
also has a particle filter to reduce the
volume of soot particles emitted.
Please make your own
contribution towards
protecting the environment
too
– Worn parts replaced in the course of
routine vehicle maintenance (vehi-
cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter-
ies, etc.) and oil containers (empty or
filled with used oil) must be disposed
of through specialist organisations.
– At the end of the vehicle’s service
life, it should be sent to approved
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
– In all cases, comply with local legis-
lation.
Recycling
Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and
95% recoverable.
To achieve these objectives, many of
the vehicle components have been de-
signed to enable them to be recycled.
The materials and structures have
been carefully designed to allow these
components to be easily removed and
reprocessed by specialist companies.
In order to preserve raw material re-
sources, this vehicle incorporates nu-
merous parts made from recycled plas-
tics or renewable materials (vegetable
or animal-derived materials such as
cotton or wool).
Your vehicle has been designed with
respect for the environment in mind for
its entire service life: during production,
use and at the end of its life.
This commitment is illustrated by the of
the manufacturer eco² signature.
Manufacture
Your vehicle has been manufactured at
a factory which complies with a policy
to reduce the environmental impact
on the surrounding areas (reduction of
water and energy consumption, visual
and noise pollution, atmospheric emis-
sions and waste water; sorting and re-
using waste).
2.14
GEAR LEVER
Gear lever
Selecting reverse gear
With the vehicle stationary, move the
gear lever into neutral then into reverse.
Follow the grid drawn on gear knob 1,
lift ring 2 against the gear knob to select
reverse gear.
The reversing lights will come on as
soon as reverse gear is selected (with
the ignition on).
Vehicles with sequential gear-
box: refer to the information on the
“Sequential gearbox” in Section 2.

An impact to the underside
of the vehicle (e.g.: striking
a post, raised kerb or other
street furniture) may result
in damage to the vehicle (e.g.: de-
formation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.
2.15
Handbrake
To apply:
Pull upwards, check that the vehicle is
properly immobilised.
To release:
Pull the lever up slightly, press button 1
and then lower the lever to the floor.
Make sure that the hand-
brake is properly released
when driving (red indicator
light off), otherwise over-
heating, or even damage, may
occur.
When the vehicle is
stopped, depending on the
gradient and/or the vehicle
load, it may be necessary to
apply the handbrake by at least two
further notches and engage a gear
(1
st
or reverse).

lit on the instrument panel accom-
panied by the message “BRAKING
FAULT”: this indicates a fault with
the braking system.
In both cases, please consult an
Authorised Dealer.
Anti-lock braking system
(ABS)
Under heavy braking, the ABS prevents
the wheels from locking, allowing the
stopping distance to be managed and
keeping control of the vehicle.
Under these circumstances, the vehi-
cle can be steered to avoid an obstacle
whilst braking. In addition, this system
can increase stopping distances, par-
ticularly on roads with low surface grip
(wet ground etc.).
You will feel a pulsation through the
brake pedal each time the system is
activated. The ABS does not in any
way improve the vehicle's physical per-
formance relating to the road surface
and road-holding. It is still essential to
follow the rules of good driving practice
(such as driving at a safe distance from
the vehicle in front etc.).
In an emergency, apply firm and
continuous pressure to the brake
pedal. There is no need to pump
it repeatedly. The ABS will modu-
late the force applied in the braking
system.
Your braking systems
are partially operational.
However, it is dangerous
to brake suddenly and
it is essential to stop immediately,
as soon as traffic conditions allow.
Contact an approved dealer.
Depending on the vehicle, this is com-
posed of:
– anti-lock braking system (ABS);
– electronic stability program (ESC)
with understeer control and trac-
tion control;
– driver assistance with a trailer;
– emergency brake assist;
– active emergency braking;
– grip control;
– hill start assistance.
Other driving assistance systems are
detailed on the following pages.

Electronic stability program
(ESC) with understeer control
and traction control
Electronic stability control ESC
This system helps you to keep control
of the vehicle in critical driving condi-
tions (avoiding an obstacle, loss of grip
on a bend, etc.).
Operating principle
A sensor in the steering wheel detects
the direction selected by the driver.
Other sensors throughout the vehicle
measure the actual direction.
The system compares driver input to
the actual trajectory of the vehicle and
corrects the trajectory if necessary by
controlling the braking of certain wheels
and/or engine power. In the event that
the system is engaged, indicator light
flashes on the instrument panel.
DRIVING CORRECTION DEVICES AND AIDS
(2/8)
Understeer control
This system optimises the action of the
ESC in the case of pronounced under-
steer (loss of front axle road holding).
Traction control
This system helps to limit wheelspin of
the drive wheels and to control the ve-
hicle when pulling away accelerating or
decelerating.
Operating principle
Using the wheel sensors, the system
measures and compares the speed of
the drive wheels at all times and slows
down their over-rotation. If a wheel is
starting to slip, the system brakes au-
tomatically until the drive supplied be-
comes compatible with the level of grip
under the wheel again.
The system also adjusts the engine
speed to the grip available under the
wheels, independently of the pressure
exerted on the accelerator pedal.
These functions are an ad-
ditional aid in the event of
critical driving conditions,
enabling the vehicle behav-
iour to be adapted to suit the driving
conditions.
The functions do not take the place
of the driver. They do not increase
the vehicle’s limits and should
not encourage you to drive more
quickly. Therefore, they can under
no circumstances replace the vigi-
lance or responsibility of the driver
when manoeuvring the vehicle (the
driver must always be ready for
sudden incidents which may occur
when driving).
2.18

(3/8)
Emergency brake assist
This system supplements the ABS
and helps reduce vehicle stopping dis-
tances.
Operating principle
The system is for detecting an emer-
gency braking situation. In this case,
the braking assistance immediately de-
velops maximum power and may trig-
ger ABS regulation.
ABS braking is maintained as long as
the brake pedal is applied.
Hazard warning lights switching on
Depending on the vehicle, these may
light up in the event of sudden decel-
eration.
Operating faults
When the system detects an operat-
ing fault the message “CHECK ABS”
appears on the instrument panel along
with the
©
warning light.
Consult an approved dealer.
Driver assistance with a
trailer
This system helps to maintain control
over the vehicle while using a trailer.
It detects shaking caused by towing a
trailer under certain driving conditions.
Operating conditions
– The towbar must be approved by an
authorised dealer;
– the harness must be approved by an
authorised dealer;
– the towbar must be connected to the
vehicle.
Operating principle
The function stabilises the vehicle by:
– asymmetric braking of the front
wheels to reduce shaking caused by
the trailer;
– braking of all four wheels and limita-
tion on engine torque to reduce the
vehicle speed until the shaking has
stopped.
Warning light
flashes on the in-
strument panel to inform the driver.
Active emergency braking
Using the sensor 1, the system calcu-
lates the distance separating the vehi-
cle from the one in front and alerts the
driver if there is a risk of a front-end col-
lision. The driver can then brake the ve-
hicle to limit the damage arising from a
collision.
Note: Make sure that the sensor 1 is
not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, etc.).

Pressing and holding one of the but-
tons 3 or 4 again will reactivate the
system. The message “AEBS ACTIVE”
is displayed and the
indicator
light goes out on the instrument panel.
This system is reactivated each time
the ignition is switched on.
Conditions for non-activation of the
system
The system cannot be activated:
– when the gear lever is in neutral;
– when the parking brake is activated;
– while cornering.
Operation
While driving (at speeds of between
about 9 and 62 mph (15 and 100 km/h)),
if there is a risk of collision with the ve-
hicle in front, the warning light
will flash on the instrument panel in red
and a beep will sound.
If the driver depresses the brake pedal
and the system still detects a collision
risk, the warning light
continues
to flash on the instrument panel, ac-
companied by a beep, until the system
no longer detects any risk of collision.
If the driver fails to react following
an alert of an imminent collision, the
system activates the brakes.
The system only detects vehicles
driving in the same direction of traf-
fic. The system cannot detect mo-
torcycles because of the difficulty in
forecasting their trajectory.
Activating/deactivating the system
With the vehicle stationary and the ig-
nition on:
– repeatedly press button 3 or 4 to
select the “AEBS ACTIVE” function
on the display 2;
– press and hold button 3 or 4 for
around 3 seconds to deactivate
the system. The message “AEBS
DEACTIVATED” will be displayed
and the
indicator light on the
instrument panel will light up and
stay on to confirm the deactivation of
the system.
