SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions
should be avoided:
• driving for long periods when the
low fuel level warning light is lit
up,
• using leaded petrol,
• using oil or fuel additives which
are not approved by RENAULT.
Or faults such as:
• faulty ignition, running out of
fuel or spark plug disconnected
resulting in the engine misfiring
and snatching when driving,
• loss of power;
as they may cause the catalytic
converter to overheat and thus
reduce its efficiency,
or destroy it
and cause heat damage to the
vehicle
.
If you notice any of the above faults,
have the necessary repairs carried
out as soon as possible by your
RENAULT Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by
regularly taking your vehicle to
your
RENAULT
Dealer
at
the
intervals specified in your service
booklet.
Starting faults
To avoid damaging the catalytic
converter,
do not keep
trying to start
the engine (using the start button, or
by pushing or towing the vehicle)
without
having
identified
and
corrected the starting fault
.
If the fault cannot be identified, do
not continue to try and start the
engine, call a RENAULT Dealer.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where
combustible
substances
or
materials
such as grass or leaves can come
into contact with a hot exhaust
system.
