Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be
used for a limited period and as laid
down by local legislation. It is neces-
sary to observe the speed specified by
current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be
fitted to the two front wheels.Use in winter
Chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly for-
bidden.
Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which
are larger than those originally fitted to
the vehicle.
Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be
fitted to all four wheels to ensure that
your vehicle retains maximum adhe-
sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes have
a specific direction of rotation and a
maximum speed index which may be
lower than the maximum speed of your
vehicle.
TYRES (3/3)
Chains may only be fitted
to tyres of the same size
as those originally fitted to
your vehicle.
In all cases, we would recommend
that you contact an approved dealer
who will be able to advise you on
the choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Fitting new tyres
Always ensure tyres with identi-
cal 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 differen-
tial pinions.
For safety reasons, this op-
eration must be carried out
by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may
change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no
longer conforms to current regu-
lations;
– it may change the way it handles
when cornering;
– it may cause the steering to be
heavy;
– It may affect the use of snow
chains.
When changing a tyre, make sure all four tyres are changed at the same
time in order to preserve the transmission system.

Remorquage : d pannage (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_5
TOWING: breakdown (1/4)
Towing procedure
Before any towing, check that the steer-
ing column is not locked.
If it is locked, insert the RENAULT card
into the reader and press the Start/Stop
button twice without pressing on the
pedals. The steering column unlocks,
the vehicle accessory functions are
supplied with power and you can use
the lights (stop lights, directional indica-
tor lights, etc.): the vehicle must have
its lights on at night.
Do not remove the RENAULT card from
the reader when the vehicle is being
towed.
Press the Start/Stop button twice in
succession to switch off the ignition
once towing is finished (risk of running
down the battery).
Furthermore, it is essential to respect
the towing regulations set out in the leg-
islation of the country concerned and, if
your vehicle is the towing vehicle, not to
exceed the towing weight of your vehi-
cle. Contact your approved Dealer.

Remorquage : d pannage (X45 - H45 - Renault) ENG_NU_1057-1_H45_Ph3_Renault_5
TOWING: breakdown (4/4)
Only use the front towing point 1 and
the rear towing point 4 (never use the
driveshafts). These towing points may
only be used for towing: never use
them for lifting the vehicle directly or in-
directly.
When the engine is
stopped, steering and brak-
ing assistance are not op-
erational.
– RENAULT recommends
the use of a rigid towing bar.
If a rope or cable is used
(where the law allows this),
the vehicle being towed must be
able to brake.
– A vehicle must not be towed if it is
not fit to be driven.
– Do not accelerate or brake sud-
denly when towing, as this may
result in damage being caused to
the vehicle.
– When towing a vehicle, it is ad-
visable not to exceed 15 mph
(25 km/h).

Using the towing hitch
Remove cover 2.
Screw in towing hitch 3 as far as
possible. To do this, insert the towing
hitch 3 and screw it in by hand, then
tighten it using the wheelbrace.
The towing hitch 3 and the wheelbrace
are located in the tool kit in the luggage
compartment (refer to information con-
cerning the tool kit in Section 5).
Never leave tools unse-
cured in the vehicle: there
is a risk that they may be
thrown about during brak-
ing.

OPERATING FAULTS (4/5)
On the road POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Steering becomes heavy. Assistance overheating. Consult an approved dealer.
The engine is overheating. The cool-
ant temperature indicator is in the
warning zone and warning light
® comes on.Engine cooling fan not working. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
contact an approved dealer.

tain fluid. If there is no coolant, consult an
approved dealer as soon as possible.
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by our Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
