I - PREPARATION OPERATION FOR THE
MEASUREMENT DEVICE
aCheck that the measurement device functions prop-
erly (see the device's instruction manual).
aSet units to ˚C.
aSet the device's sensitivity to 0.1˚C.
aSet the reading mode to (∆T) = (T1 - T2)aCheck the two sensors T1 and T2 in order to calcu-
late the correction (∆) to be applied to the measure-
ment (T1 - T2). the two sensors must indicate the
same measurement under the same conditions.
Check the sensors by:
-bringing the ends of the 2 sensors together until
they touch,
-placing the sensors in the air flow of an air vent,
-setting the passenger compartment fan assembly
to top speed.
-waiting for the value to become stable.
-recording the correction value (∆). Equipment required
Dual-sensor temperature measuring device
Note:
When performing RENAULT maintenance, check
the air conditioning system at the end of the vehi-
cle's maintenance program so that the engine will
be cold.

Note:
It is not necessary to start the vehicle. The
device display is in mode (∆T) = (T1 - T2).
WARNING
Note the diff erence and sign as soon as the tem-
per ature becomes stable.
Calculate the correction (∆) = - (T1 - T2) to be
applied to the measurement (∆T).
Examples:
If (T1 - T2) = - 0.3˚C, correct the measurement
(∆T) by (∆) = + 0.3˚C
If (T1 - T2) = + 0.3˚C, correct the measurement
(∆T) by (∆) = - 0.3˚C
