Brake fluid level
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground.Level 2
It is normal for the level to drop as
the linings become worn, but it should
never drop below the “MIN” warning
line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum
wear yourself, you should obtain the
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from our network or from the
manufacturer’s website.Topping up
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our
Technical Department (and taken from
a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
The engine may be hot
when carrying out opera-
tions in close proximity. In
addition, the engine cooling
fan can come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.

ACCESSORIES
Electrical and electronic accessoriesBefore installing this type of accessory, make sure it is compatible with your vehicle. You can get advice from an au-
thorised dealer.
Connect accessories with a maximum power of 120 watts only. Fire hazard.
No work may be carried out on the vehicle’s electrical or radio circuits, except by authorised dealers: an incorrectly connected
system may result in damage being caused to the electrical equipment and/or the components connected to it.
If the vehicle is fitted with any aftermarket electrical equipment, make sure that the installation is correctly protected by a fuse.
Establish the rating and position of this fuse.
Use of transmission/receiving devices (telephones, CB equipment etc.).Telephones and CB equipment with integrated aerials may cause interference to the electronic systems originally fitted to the
vehicle: it is advisable only to use equipment with an external aerial. Furthermore, we remind you of the need to conform
to the legislation in force concerning the use of such equipment.
Fitting after-market accessoriesIf you wish to install accessories on the vehicle: please contact an authorised dealer. Also, to ensure the correct operation of
your vehicle, and to avoid any risk to your safety, we recommend that you use only accessories specifically designed for your
vehicle, which are the only accessories for which the manufacturer will provide a warranty.
If you are using an anti-theft device, only attach it to the brake pedal.
Obstructions to the driver
On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with the pre-fitted components, and check the fitting regu-
larly. Do not lay one mat on top of another. There is a risk of wedging the pedals

TOWING: breakdown (2/4)
3233032331
2WD vehicles
Vehicles fitted with an automatic transmission or continuously vari-able transmission.
With the ignition off, the gearbox is no longer lubricated. If it is not, the vehi-cle must be transported on a trailer or be towed with the front wheels off the ground.
If the lever is stuck in P, even though you are de-pressing the brake pedal, the lever can be released manually.
To do this, first remove the cover 2 on the left-hand side of the gear lever.
While depressing the brake pedal, shift the gear lever into neutral (N) and simultaneously press the button 1 on the lever and on the button under the cover 2.

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.
