Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with injection
equipment incorporating a mechanical
regulator which prevents overrevving
of the engine irrespective of the gear
in use.
Running out of fuel
You may start the engine normally after
refilling the fuel tank even if you have
completely run out of fuel, provided
that the battery is fully 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 diesel tank rela-
tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing 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 con-
tact with the hot exhaust system.
