Pull stalk 1towards you to flash the
headlights, even if the lights are not
in use.

This switch illuminates all four
direction indicators and the side-

road users if:
 you are obliged to stop for any reason beyond your control in an
unusual or prohibited location,
 you are obliged to drive under special conditions.
“Danger” Signal (continued)

hazard warning lights may come on
automatically under deliberate
heavy deceleration.
In this case, the hazard warning
lights may be switched off by
pressing switch 2once.
Direction indicators
Shift stalk 1parallel to the steering
wheel and in the direction you are
going to turn.
When driving on the motorway, the
steering wheel manoeuvres are
generally inadequate for automatically
bringing the stalk back to 0. There is an
intermediate position in which you
must keep the stalk during the
manoeuvre.
By releasing the stalk, it automatically
returns to 0.

No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wir-
ing, fuel circuit, injector, pro-
tection covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (such work must only
be undertaken by qualified
RENAULT Network personnel).
FUEL TANK (continued)
Filling up with fuel
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
anti-pollution devices and may lead
to a loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not
filled with leaded petrol, the fuel
tank filler neck contains a restrictor
fitted with a foolproof system which
only allows the nozzle for unleaded
petrol to be used (at the pump).
- Insert the nozzle so that the metal valve is pushed back and then fully
insert it before beginning to fill the
tank (risk of splash-back).
- Keep the nozzle in this position throughout the entire filling
operation.
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent fuel odour
you should:
 stop the vehicle when traffic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
 switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and to keep away
from the traffic;
 not work on, or restart, the vehicle before it has been inspected by
qualified staff from the RENAULT
Network.
Filling up with fuel (continued)
Petrol and diesel versions
No more than two filling operations
may be made after the fuel feed has
switched off automatically for the
first time because there must be
sufficient space in the fuel tank to
allow for expansion.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
If you notice any of the above faults,
have the necessary repairs carried
out as soon as possible by your
RENAULT Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by
regularly taking your vehicle to your
RENAULT Dealer at the intervals
specified in your Warranty and
Services booklet.
Starting faults
To avoid damaging the catalytic
converter, do not keep trying to start
the engine (using the Start button, or
by pushing or towing the vehicle)
without having identified and
corrected the starting fault .
If the fault cannot be identified, do
not continue to try to start the
engine, contact a RENAULT Dealer.
The following operating conditions
should be avoided:

low fuel level warning light is lit,

are not approved by RENAULT.
Or operating faults such as:
fuel or spark plug disconnected
resulting in the engine misfiring
and bucking while driving,

may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat and thus reduce its
efficiency, or destroy it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle .
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible
substances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
