FUEL TANK
(continued)
Filling up with fuel
Petrol versions
Use unleaded petrol only.
Using leaded petrol will damage the
anti-pollution devices and may lead
to a loss of warranty.
To ensure the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank
filler neck contains a restrictor fitted
with a valve which
only allows the
nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used
(at the pump).
- Insert the nozzle
as far as it will go
to open the valve.
- Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling
operation.
Filling up with fuel
(continued)
Petrol and diesel versions
No more than two filling operations
may be made after the fuel feed has
switched off automatically for the
first time because there must be
sufficient space in the fuel tank to
allow for expansion.
Diesel version
Use diesel engine fuel only. Make
sure that no water accidentally
enters the fuel tank during filling.
The fuel filler cap and neck must be
clean and dust-free. The diesel fuel
must be of a high grade.
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent fuel
odour you should:
-
stop the vehicle when traffic
conditions allow and switch off the
ignition,
-
switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and to keep away
from the traffic;
-
refrain from working on or
restarting the vehicle before it has
been inspected by qualified staff
from the RENAULT Network.
No modifications whatso-
ever are permitted on any
part of the fuel supply
system (computers,
wiring, fuel circuit, injector,
protection covers, etc.) as this
may be dangerous (such work
must be undertaken by qualified
RENAULT Network personnel).
