ADVICE ON ANTI-POLLUTION AND HOW TO ECONOMISE ON FUEL, DRIVING
RENAULT is actively participating
in
the
reduction
of
pollutant
exhaust gas emissions and in saving
energy.
By virtue of its design, moderate
fuel
consumption
and
initial
settings your Renault conforms to
current anti-pollution standards.
Technical design, however, cannot
achieve all. The fuel consumption
of your car and the level of pollutant
exhaust gas emissions are very
much within your control. Make
sure that your vehicle is maintained
correctly, use it carefully and watch
your driving style.
Maintenance
It should be noted that failure to
respect
anti-pollution
standards
may lead to legal action being taken
against
the
vehicle
owner.
In
addition, the replacement of parts of
the engine, fuel supply system and
exhaust by parts other than those
originally recommended by the
manufacturer
may
alter
your
vehicle such that it no longer
complies
with
anti-pollution
standards.
Have your vehicle checked and
adjusted by your Renault Dealer in
accordance with the instructions in
the vehicle’s servicing booklet.
Your Renault Dealer has all the
equipment necessary for ensuring
your vehicle is maintained in its
original standard.
Always remember that the emission
of pollutant fumes is directly linked
to fuel consumption.
Engine adjustments
• Ignition:
This does not require
adjustment.
•
Spark
plugs:
Optimum
conditions of use, performance
and output demand that the
specifications laid down by our
design
office
be
rigorously
adhered to.
If the spark plugs have to be
changed, use the make, type and
gap specified for your vehicle’s
engine. Consult your Renault
Dealer for this information.
•
Idling
speed:
This does not
require adjustment.
•
Air filter, diesel filter:
A choked
element hinders output and must
be changed.
•
Injection pump setting:
It must be
set to the recommended values.
