OPERATING FAULTS
On the road
– Steering becomes heavy.
– The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature warning light comes on
(or the indicator needle is in the red
area).
Radiator: in the event of a very low water level, remember that it must not be topped up with cold water when the
engine is very hot. After any procedure 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 our
Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
(continued)
CAUSES
Belt broken.
Insufficient oil in pump.
Coolant pump: belt stretched or broken.
Engine cooling fan not working.
Coolant leaks.
WHAT TO DO
Have the belt replaced.
Top up the power-assisted steering
fluid level (refer to the information on
the "Power-assisted steering pump" in
Section 4).
If the fault is still present, contact a
RENAULT Dealer.
Stop the vehicle and switch off the
engine. Contact a RENAULT Dealer.
Check the condition of hoses and the
tightness of the 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 tem-
porary: contact your RENAULT Dealer
as soon as possible.
