FUEL TANK
(continued)
Filling with fuel
Petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
No modifications whatsoever 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).

Petrol and diesel versions
– Insert the nozzle so that the metal
valve is pushed back and then fully
insert it before beginning to fill the
tank (risk of splashback).
– Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling opera-
tion.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi-
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Persistent smell of fuel
If you notice a persistent smell of fuel
you should:
– stop the vehicle as soon as 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 restart-
ing the vehicle before it has been
inspected by qualified RENAULT
Network personnel.
