OPERATING FAULTS (continued)
On the open road CAUSES REMEDIAL ACTION
• Steering becomes heavy. Belt broken. Have the belt replaced.
Insufficient oil in pump. Top up the power-assisted steering
fluid (refer to the section entitled
“Power assisted steering pump” in
Section 4).
If the fault is still present, contact a
RENAULT Dealer.
• The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature warning light lights up.
Coolant pump: belt stretched or
broken.
Engine cooling fan not working.
Stop the vehicle and switch off the
engine. Contact a RENAULT Dealer.
Coolant leaks. Check the condition of hoses and
clips.
Check the expansion bottle: it should
contain coolant. If it does not, top it
up (once it has cooled). Take care not
to scald yourself. This action is only
temporary: contact your RENAULT
Dealer as soon as possible.
Radiator: never fill a hot radiator with cold coolant if a considerable quantity has been lost. After any operation
on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling system, it must be refilled with a new
mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved by RENAULT's Technical
Department may be used for this purpose.
