EMERGENCY SPARE WHEEL
Emergency spare wheel 3
This is located in the luggage
compartment.
To access it:
- open the luggage compartment;
- lift the carpet 1and 2(depending
on vehicle);
Special note:
The “Tyre pressure monitor”
function does not monitor the
emergency spare wheel (the wheel
replaced by the emergency spare
wheel disappears from the
instrument panel display).
Refer to the Tyre pressure monitor
information in Section 2.
- unscrew the centre fixing 4.
- remove the emergency spare wheel.
If the spare wheel has
been stored for several
years, have it checked by
your Dealer to ensure that
it is still safe to use. Vehicles fitted with an
emergency spare wheel
smaller than the four
other wheels.
When using the emergency spare
wheel, driving speed should not
exceed 78 mph (130 km/h).
Replace the emergency spare
wheel as soon as possible with a
wheel with the same dimensions
as the original.

TOOL KIT
The tool kit Ais located inside the
luggage compartment to the right of
the emergency spare wheel.
To gain access to the tools, remove
the emergency spare wheel then
release the tool kit.
Wheel trim tool 2or 4
This tool is used to remove the
wheel embellishers.
Towing hitch 3
Refer to the information on Towing
in Section 5.
Wheelbrace 5
This is used to tighten or release the
wheel bolts.
Storage compartments
Locations are provided in the tool
kit to store an anti-theft wheel
locking nut.
Jack 1
Remove jack 1.
When replacing the jack, fold it up
completely and replace it in its
location.
The jack is designed for
wheel changing purposes
only. Under no
circumstances should it
be used for carrying out repairs
underneath the vehicle or to gain
access to the underneath of the
vehicle.

CHANGING A WHEEL
If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Undo the wheel bolts with
wheelbrace 1. Position it so that you
can push it from above.
Fit the jack 3horizontally; the jack
head must be fitted at the height of
the bodywork support 2closest to
the wheel concerned, marked by an
arrow 4.
Crank up the jack by hand at first to
align the base plate (which should
be inclined further inwards under
the car). Turn a few times to lift the wheel off
the ground.
Undo the bolts and take off the
wheel.
Fit the spare wheel on the central
hub and turn it to locate the
mounting holes in the wheel and the
hub.
If bolts are supplied with the
emergency spare wheel, only use
these bolts for the emergency spare
wheel. Tighten the bolts and lower
the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, fully
tighten the bolts and check they are
correctly tightened as quickly as
possible (tightening torque 110 Nm).
If you have a puncture,
replace the wheel as soon
as possible.
A tyre which has been
punctured should always be
inspected (and repaired, where
possible) by a specialist.
Park the car on firm, level
ground which is not slippery
(e.g. avoid tiled flooring,
etc.) - if necessary, place a
plank of wood under the jack for
support. Switch on the hazard
warning lights.
Apply the hand brake and engage a
gear (first or reverse, or Pfor
automatic transmission).
Ask all the passengers to leave the
vehicle and keep them away from
traffic.

TYRES (continued)
Pressures should be checked when
the tyres are cold; ignore higher
pressures which may be reached in
hot weather or following a fast
journey.
If the tyre pressures cannot be
checked when the tyres are cold,
assume an increase of 0.2 to 0.3 bar
(or 3 psi. ).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
Note: a label (depending on country
or model) fixed to the edge or frame
of the driver’s door gives the
recommended tyre pressures.
Changing wheels around
This practice is not recommended.
Tyre pressures
Tyre pressures must be adhered to,
tyre pressures for all wheels
(including the spare wheel) must be
checked at least once a month and
always before a long journey (refer
to the information on Tyre
pressures).
Emergency spare wheel
Refer to the information relating to
the emergency spare wheel and
changing a wheel in Section 5.
Fitting new tyres
Incorrect tyre pressures
lead to abnormal tyre
wear and unusually hot
running, factors which
may seriously affect safety and
lead to:
- poor roadholding,
- the risk of blow-outs or of throwing a tread at high speed.
The pressure depends on the load
and the speed of use. Adjust the
pressures according to the
conditions of use (refer to the
information on Tyre pressures). Vehicles equipped with
the tyre pressure monitor
Each of the sensors fitted
in the valves is dedicated
to one particular wheel: the
wheels must therefore not be
swapped around.
There is a risk of incorrect
information which could have
serious consequences. For safety reasons, this
operation must be carried
out by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
- It may mean that your vehicle no longer conforms to current
regulations.
- It may change the way it handles when cornering.
- It may cause the steering to be heavy.
- It may cause tyre noise.
- It may affect the use of snow chains.

FUSES
Fuse box 1
If electrical equipment does not
work, check the condition of the
fuses.
Open cover 2(underneath the
steering wheel or inside the glove
box).
To identify the fuses, refer to the
fuse allocation sticker (shown on the
following page).
In accordance with local
legislation or as a precautionary
measure:
Obtain an emergency kit of spare
bulbs and fuses from your
RENAULT Dealer.
Take out the fuse using tweezers 3,
located on the cover 2.
To remove the fuse from the
tweezers, slide the fuse to the side.
It is not advisable to use the free fuse
locations.
CORRECT INCORRECT
Check the fuse in question
and, if necessary, replace it
with a fuse of the same
rating.
If you fit a higher-amp fuse, it may
cause the electrical circuit to
overheat (risk of fire) in the event of
a consumer drawing an excessive
current.
