ENVIRONMENT
Your vehicle has been designed with
the aim of caring forthe environment.
• Most versions are fitted with a
depollution system incorporating
thecatalytic converter, oxygen
sensor and active carbon filter
(which prevents fuel vapour
evaporating from the fuel tank
into the open air).
•These vehicles run on unleaded
fuel only.
•your vehicle comprises 87%
recyclable partsand already
contains parts which are made
fromrecycled materials(as marked
on the diagram above).
• 95% of the plastic parts in your
vehicle are marked by a symbol
which allows the principal
component material to be identified.
This marking means that the parts
removed can be sorted more
easily, making recycling of each of
them easier.In addition, your vehicle meets the
requirements of European legislation
concerning the protection of the
environment.
Make your contribution to
environmental protection too !
Do not dispose of parts replaced in
the course of routine vehicle
maintenance (battery, oil filter, air
filter...) and oil cans (empty or filled
with old oil...) with household
waste.
Dispose of them through specialist
organisations. In all cases comply
with local legislation.

components.
Engine oil change:Ifyou
change the oil when the
engine is hot, be careful to

enclosed space as exhaust
fumes are poisonous.
Consult your Renault Dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
