SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
The following operating conditions:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using oil or fuel additives which are
not approved by the manufacturer.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition system, running out of
fuel or disconnected spark plugs re-
sulting in the engine misfiring or cut-
ting out when driving;
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle.If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by reg-
ularly taking your vehicle to your ap-
proved dealer at the intervals speci-
fied in your Maintenance Service
Document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter, 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 and start the engine, but
contact an approved dealer.
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.

Particularités des versions GPL (H79 Ph2 - Dacia) ENG_NU_1079-6_H79Ph2_Dacia_2
SPECIAL FEATURES OF LPG VERSIONS (3/3)
If driving under severe
conditions
If driving under severe conditions (hea-
vily laden vehicle, high outside tempe-
rature, starting on a steep slope, etc),
you are recommended to switch to
petrol mode.
At temperatures close to 0°C or less, it
is recommended to use ECO mode to
maximise the use of LPG. Please refer
to the information on “Driving advice,
Eco-driving” in Section 2.
In the event of an accident
The main precautions to be taken are
the same as with petrol vehicles:
– apply the handbrake;
– stop the engine (a safety device that
stops LPG from entering the engine
is automatically triggered);
– switch off the ignition;
– observe local regulations.
LPG has a very specific
smell so you will be able to
detect any leaks easily. If
you smell gas in your vehi-
cle or immediately surrounding your
vehicle:
– switch to petrol mode immedia-
tely and make sure there are no
flames or sources of fire near the
vehicle;
– go to an authorised dealer.
Do not touch, hit or dis-
mantle any part of the LPG
system components.
Operating fault
In the event of a fault which may affect
the correct operation of the engine, the
system automatically switches from
LPG to petrol mode.
This is confirmed by:
– the appearance of the yellow war-
ning light B;
– slow flashing of the green warning
light D;
– a beep sounds.

MAINTENANCE AND ANTIPOLLUTION ADVICE
Your vehicle complies with criteria for
recycling and recovering vehicles at the
end of their service life, which will come
into force in 2015.
Some of the parts on your vehicle have
been designed to be recycled later.
These parts are easily removable in
order to be collected and reprocessed
in recycling networks.
Furthermore, by virtue of its design,
moderate fuel consumption and initial
settings, your vehicle also conforms
to current anti-pollution regulations.
The manufacturer is actively striving
to reduce pollutant exhaust gas emis-
sions and to save energy. However,
the fuel consumption of your vehicle
and the level of pollutant exhaust gas
emissions are also your responsibility.
Ensure that it is maintained and used
correctly.Maintenance
It is important to remember that fail-
ure to respect anti-pollution regulations
could lead to legal action being taken
against the vehicle owner.
In addition, replacing engine, fuel
supply system and exhaust compo-
nents with parts other than those origi-
nally recommended by the manufac-
turer may alter your vehicle so that it
no longer complies with anti-pollution
regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and
checked by an authorised dealer, in ac-
cordance with the instructions given in
your maintenance schedule: they will
have all the equipment necessary for
ensuring that your vehicle is maintained
to its original standard.
Engine adjustments
– Air filter, fuel filter: a choked ele-
ment will reduce efficiency. It must
be replaced.
– Idle speed: no adjustment is needed.
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
an authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible.
