Environment - Renault Clio 2007 Owner's Manual

ENVIRONMENT

Your vehicle has been designed with
respect for the environment in mind.
– Most versions are equipped with a
particle filter system including a cat-
alytic converter, an oxygen sensor
and an active carbon filter (the
latter prevents vapour from the fuel
tank being released into the open
air).
– These vehicles operate with un-
leaded fuel only.
– 87% of the parts in your vehicle can
be recycled and it already contains
recycled materials.
– 95% of the plastic components
in your vehicle are marked with a
symbol which allows the principal
component material to be identified.
These markings mean that parts re-
moved can be sorted more easily,
making it easier to recycle them.
In addition to this, your vehicle meets
the requirements laid down in European
legislation relating to environmental
protection.
Make your contribution towards pro-
tecting the environment too.
Do not dispose of parts replaced in the
course of routine vehicle maintenance
(battery, oil filter, air filter, etc.) and oil
containers (empty or full of used oil)
with household waste.
Dispose of them through specialist or-
ganisations. In all cases, comply with
local legislation.
