SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with
injection equipment which
prevents engine overspeed
irrespective of the gear in use.
Running out of fuel
If the fuel tank has been drained
completely, you may start the
engine normally after refilling the
fuel tank provided that the battery is
well charged.
However, if after a few seconds and
several attempts the engine fails to
start, contact a RENAULT Dealer.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
• ensure that the battery is always
fully charged.
• always keep the fuel tank
relatively full to avoid water
vapour condensing in it and
accumulating at the bottom of the
tank.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such as
grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust
system.
