SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS

The following operating conditions
should be avoided:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit up,
– using leaded petrol,
– using oil or fuel additives which are
not approved by RENAULT.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition, running out of fuel or
a disconnected spark plug resulting
in engine misfiring and jerking when
driving,
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle.
2.6
If you notice any of the above operat-
ing faults, have the necessary repairs
carried out as soon as possible by your
RENAULT Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regularly
taking your vehicle to your RENAULT
Dealer at the intervals specified in your
Maintenance Service Booklet.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter, do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
starting fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
continue to try to start the engine, but
contact a RENAULT Dealer.
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 con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.
