I have two, one for my Citroen and one for my Vauxhall Corsa.
They are not your typical workshop manual, both I have are accessed via a virtual machine installed on my PC. I had a problem installing the Vauxhall manual and found the email help desk good
Both I have are completely different from each other for example the Citroen version is better than the Vauxhall, so this reason I'm not going to recommend as I have never seen a Renault version.
However, I just looked on their website and the one for the Kangoo looks like a server based PDF manual at €38.99.!! 8-[

Have a look at these - they do an online version so they can update it regularly, but some are PDF printable too. They cover the Kangoo:

I've also read bad reviews of that other Emanuel site.

I had one of these (Revue-Technique manuals) for my XM (mid/late 1990's), very good, the only problem I had was it was in French, so I had to translate everything, and this was before the internet so I had to use a dictionary, ! 😒

I think the OP's in France Stu, so should be ok, but as far as I know these are the same as the Haynes manuals now as the web interface looks nearly identical:

Marc, Yes, I did realise that he was in France😊, but......
And yes, if you click on the review technique link https://www.revue-technique-auto.fr/ in Marc's first post, select the UK in the language option (flag at top of screen) punch in your registration number, voila!, you have a picture of a Haynes manual.

I used these years ago but the PDF although useful illustration wise, was only in French at the time and it was a pain translating sections when you need to look something up, so cancelled within the grace period and stuck to what I had.
