Special features of diesel versions
SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with an injec -
tion pump which prevents the engine
speed being exceeded irrespective of
the gear selected.
If the
Ä and Ò warning lights
come on, consult an approved dealer
as soon as possible.
When driving, depending on the fuel
grade used, it is possible that white
smoke may be emitted.
This is due to the exhaust particle filter
being cleaned automatically, and does
not affect the way the vehicle runs.
Running out of fuel
If the tank has been completely
drained, the system must be reprimed
after the tank is refilled: see information
on the “Fuel tank” in Section 1 before
restarting the engine.
Precautions to be taken in
winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
– ensure that the battery is always fully
charged;
– always keep the diesel tank rela -
tively full to avoid water vapour con-
densing in it and accumulating at the
bottom of the tank.
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub -
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with a hot exhaust system.

Advice: antipollution, fuel economy and driving
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel
consumption and initial settings, your
vehicle conforms to current antipol -
lution regulations. The manufacturer
is actively striving to reduce pollutant
exhaust gas emissions and to save
energy. But the fuel consumption of
your vehicle and the level of pollutant
exhaust gas emissions are also your
responsibility. Ensure that it is main -
tained and used correctly.Maintenance
It should be noted that failure to respect
antipollution regulations may lead to
legal action being taken against the
vehicle owner. In addition, replacing
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust
components with parts other than those
originally recommended by the manu -
facturer may alter your vehicle so that
it no longer complies with antipollution
standards. Have your vehicle adjusted
and checked by an authorised dealer,
in accordance with the instructions
given in your maintenance schedule:
they will have all the equipment nec -
essary for ensuring that your vehicle is
maintained to its original standard.
Engine adjustments
Air filter, diesel filter: a choked ele-
ment hinders performance. It must be
replaced. Exhaust gas monitoring system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will
detect any operating faults in the vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic sub
-
stances may be released into the at -
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis warning light on the in -
strument panel will indicate if
there are any faults in the system:
This lights up when the ignition is
switched on and goes out when the
engine is started.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an
approved Dealer as soon as possi -
ble;
– if it flashes, reduce the engine speed
until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved dealer as soon as
possible.

Environment
ENVIRONMENT
Emissions
Your vehicle has been designed to
emit fewer greenhouse gases (CO2)
while in use, and therefore to consume
less fuel (e.g. 140 g/km, equivalent to
5.3 l/100 km for a diesel vehicle).
Our vehicles are also equipped with a
particle filter system including a cata -
lytic converter, an oxygen sensor and
an active carbon filter (the latter pre -
vents vapour from the fuel tank being
released into the open air).
For certain diesel vehicles, this system
also has a particle filter to reduce the
volume of soot particles emitted.
Please make your own
contribution towards
protecting the environment
too.
– Worn parts replaced in the course
of routine vehicle maintenance (bat-
tery, oil filter, air filter, batteries, etc.)
and oil containers (empty or filled
with used oil) must be disposed of
through specialist organisations. –
At the end of the vehicle’s service
life, it should be sent to approved
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
– In all cases, comply with local legis -
lation.
Recycling
Your vehicle is 85% recyclable and
95% recoverable.
To achieve these objectives, many of
the vehicle components have been de-
signed to enable them to be recycled.
The materials and structures have
been carefully designed to allow these
components to be easily removed and
reprocessed by specialist companies.
In order to preserve raw material re -
sources, this vehicle incorporates nu -
merous parts made from recycled plas-
tics or renewable materials (vegetable
or animal-derived materials such as
cotton or wool).
Your vehicle has been designed with
respect for the
environment in mind for
its entire service life: during production,
use and at the end of its life.
This commitment is illustrated by the
Dacia eco² group signature.
ManufactureYour vehicle has been manufactured at
an industrial site which uses a progress
policy to reduce environmental impacts
on rivers and natural areas (reduc -
tion of water and energy consumption,
visual and noise pollution, atmospheric
emissions and waste water, sorting and
reusing waste).

4x2 (2WD) and 4x4 (4WD)
mode selector
Depending on the road conditions,
turning selector 1 enables the following
modes to be selected:
– 2WD ;
– AUTO ;
– 4WD Lock.
Transmission: 4-wheel drive (4WD)
TRANSMISSION: 4-wheel drive (4WD) (1/4)
“AUTO" mode
To activate this mode, turn selector 1 to
the “AUTO” position.
Operating principle
“AUTO” mode automatically distributes
the engine torque between the front and
rear axles according to the road condi -
tions and the vehicle speed. This po -
sition optimises roadholding. Use this
mode on any type of road (dry, snow -
covered, slippery, etc.) or when towing
(trailer or caravan). This mode is not in-
dicated on the instrument panel.
“2WD" mode
To activate this mode, turn selector 1 to
the “2WD" position. The
‘ indica -
tor light will light up on the instrument
panel.
Operating principle
The “2WD” mode uses the front wheels
only. Use this mode on dry roads with
good grip.
Remember that driving a vehicle off-
road is very different to driving it on
the road.
To make the most of your vehicle
in an off-road situation, we recom -
mend that you are trained to drive a
4x4 (4WD) vehicle.
The safety of both you and your
passengers is your responsibility,
and depends on your skill and the
care you take when driving off-road.

Electronic stability program and
traction control when driving off -
road
(vehicles equipped with ESP)
When driving on soft ground (sand,
mud, deep snow), we recommend that
you deactivate the ESP function by
pressing the “ESP” switch.
In this case, only individual wheel brak-
ing remains active. This function ap -
plies the brake to any wheel that is slip-
ping, allowing the engine torque to be
transferred to the wheels with the most
grip. This is particularly useful when
crossing a bridge.
All the ESP functions will be reactivated
when the vehicle speed reaches ap -
proximately 30 mph (50 km/h), (36 mph
(60 km/h) in “4WD Lock” mode), or
when the engine is restarted, or when
the “ESP” button is pressed again.Operating faults
If the system detects an operating
fault, it automatically switches to “2WD”
mode, and the
‘ and Ò warn-
ing lights come on.
Drive as soon as possible at a moder-
ate speed to an approved dealer.
For certain operating faults, the system
may not be able to switch to “2WD" or
"4WD Lock" mode. "AUTO" mode re -
mains active.
Contact an approved dealer as soon as
possible.
In this case, we recommend that you
stop as soon as possible to allow the
system to cool down (until the warning
light stops flashing).
Cooling may take up to five minutes.
If the system detects excessive wheel
-
spin on the front wheels, it adapts the
engine to run in a way that reduces
wheelspin.
Anti-lock braking in “ LOCK” mode
(vehicles equipped with ABS)
When “4WD Lock" mode is active, the
ABS switches to off-road mode. In this
case, the wheels may lock intermit -
tently to achieve better grip, thus reduc-
ing braking distances on soft ground.
When this mode is active:
– the vehicle’s manoeuvrability is lim -
ited during braking. This operating
mode is therefore not recommended
in very low-grip conditions (eg. ice).
– there may be some noise. This is
normal, and does not indicate an op-
erating fault.

All-wheel drive system
– Irrespective of the mode selected, do not start the engine if one or more wheels are not in contact with the ground
(eg. when the vehicle is on a jack or roller bench).
– Do not turn the mode selector when cornering, reversing or if the wheels are spinning excessively. Only select the
“2WD”, “AUTO” or “4WD Lock” mode when the vehicle is being driven in a str\
aight line.
– Only use tyres which meet the required specifications.
– “4WD Lock” mode is reserved solely for use off-road. The use of this mode in any other conditions may adversely affect the
vehicle’s manoeuvrability and damage its mechanical components.
– Always ensure tyres with identical specifications are fitted to all four wheels (brand, size, structure, wear etc.). Fitting tyres
of different sizes to the front and rear wheels and/or left and right wheels may have serious consequences for the tyres,
gearbox, transfer gearbox and the rear differential pinions.
