ENGINE OIL LEVEL
It is normal for an engine to use oil
for lubrication and cooling of
moving parts and it is sometimes
necessary to top up the level
between oil changes.
However, if more than 0.5 litre is
used every 625 miles (1000 km)
aftertherunninginperiodconsult
your Renault Dealer.
Oil change frequency: Check the oil
level from time to time and
certainly before any long journey,
to avoid the risk of damaging your
engine.
Reading the oil level
The car must be parked on level
ground and the engine should have
been switched off for some time
beforehand to obtain an accurate
reading.
The oil level can be read:
- on the instrument panel;
- using the dipstick.Reading the level on the instrument
panel

on for approximately 30 seconds:
-if the level is correct, the display
will show “oil OK”: display

precise indication of the level,
press the trip mileage counter
reset button or the information
scroll button on the onboard
computer.The squares which appear on the
display indicate the level. The
number of squares displayed
reduces as the oil level drops and
they are replaced by a dash: display
message2.

-if the level is at its minimum,the
word “OK” will not appear on the
display, the dashes and the word
“oil” will flash (display message3)

It is vital to top up the oil as soon
as possible.
