The descriptions of the models given in this handbook are based on the technical specifications at the time of writing. This hand-
book covers all items of equipment (both standard and optional) available for these models, but whether or not these are
fitted to the vehicle depends on the version, options selected and the c\
ountry where the vehicle is sold.
This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to b\
e introduced later in the model year.
Throughout the manual, the “approved dealer” is your DACIA dealer.
Welcome aboard your vehicle
This Driver’s Handbook contains the information necessary:
–
for
you to familiarise yourself with your vehicle, to use it to its best advantage and to benefit fully from the all the functions and
the technical developments it incorporates.
–

to
ensure that it always gives the best performance by following the simple, but comprehensive advice concerning regular main-
tenance.
–

to enable you to deal quickly with minor faults not requiring sp
ecialist attention.
It is well worth taking a few minutes to read this handbook to familiarise yourself with the information and guidelines it contains
about the vehicle and its functions and new features. If certain points are still unclear, our Network technicians will be only too
pleased to provide you with any additional information.

–

It
is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in particular, laid down in
the Road Traffic Regulations. Contact an authorised dealer for any towing equipment m\
odifications.
–

For
vehicles fitted with a trailer, the gross train weight (vehicle + trailer) must never be exceeded . However, the following
is tolerated:
–

the Maximum permissible wei
ght at the rear may be exceeded by no more than 15%,
–

the maximum permissible all-
up weight may be exceeded by no more than 10% or 100 kg (whichever occu\
rs first).
In

either case, the maximum speed of the vehicle and trailer must not exceed 60 mph (100 kph) and the tyre pressures must
be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
–

The
engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by 10%
at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,000 m\
etres thereafter.
The weights shown are for a basic vehicle without options: they will vary depending on the equipment level of your ve-
hicle. Please consult an authorised dealer.
