LEVELS
Brake fluid
This must be checked frequently,
especially if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
Level1
The level falls naturally as the brake
pads wear, but it should never be
allowed to fall below the
MINIMUMwarning mark.Topping up
After any operation on the
hydraulic circuit, a specialist must
replace the brake fluid.
Only use fluids approved by
RENAULT’s Technical Department
and which have been taken from a
sealed container.
Fluid change frequency:Refer to
the servicing booklet for your
vehicle.
Take care when working
under the bonnet as the
engine cooling fan may cut
in at any moment.

CHANGING A WHEEL
•Remove the wheel embellisher
(see section on embellishers).
• Use the wheelbrace1to loosen
the wheel bolts slightly. Fit it so
that you press downwards and
not upwards.
• Offer up the jack horizontally, the
jack head must be slid
underneath the jacking point
under the body, nearest the wheel
concerned.
• Screw up the jack by hand at first
to align the base plate (which
should be inclined further
inwards than the jack head). Use a
piece of wood under the base
plate if on soft ground.• Insert the end of the wheelbrace2
into the jack3and turn a few
times to lift the wheel off the
ground:
• Remove the bolts.
• Take off the wheel.
• Position the emergency spare
wheel on the central hub and turn
it to locate the mounting holes in
the wheel and the hub.
• Tighten the bolts and lower the
jack.
• Tighten the bolts fully when the
wheel is on the ground.Park your vehicle on firm,
flat ground (if necessary,
placing a plank under the
base of the jack).
Switch on the hazard warning
lights.
Apply the handbrake and engage a
gear (first or reverse, orPon an
automatic gearbox).
Ask all the passengers to get out of
the vehicle and keep them away
from moving traffic.
If you have a puncture,
replace the wheel as soon
as possible.
A tyre which has been
punctured should always be
inspected (and repaired if possible)
by a specialist.

TOWING breakdown,(continued)
• Renault recommends
using a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows
this), the vehicle being towed
must be able to brake.
• A vehicle must not be towed if it
is not fit to be driven.
• Do not accelerate or brake
suddenly when towing, as this
may result in damage to the
vehicle.
• When towing a vehicle, do not
exceed15 mph (25 km/h).Towing a vehicle with
automatic transmission: special
notes
Engine switched off:The transmission
is no longer lubricated. It is preferable
to tow this type of vehicle on a trailer
or tow it with the front wheels off the
ground.
In exceptional cases, you can tow the
vehicle with all four wheels on the
ground for a maximum distance of 30
miles (50 km).
The selector lever must be in
neutral (position N).
If the lever becomes jammed in P
position,even though you are
pressing down the brake pedal, the
lever can be released manually.
To do this, unclip coverJ.Presson
both the raised part (under coverJ)
and the unlocking buttonAat the
same time to move the lever from
positionP.
