ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information
Reading the oil levelThe oil level should be read with the ve-
hicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
The dipstick must be used to read
the exact oil level and make sure
that the maximum level has not been
exceeded (risk of engine damage).
Refer to the following pages.

B
A
B
Exceeding the maximum
engine oil level
Under no circumstances
must the maximum fill
level B be exceeded: risk of damage
to the engine and catalytic con-
verter.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle.
Contact an authorised dealer.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is normal to top up the level be-
tween oil changes.
However, contact your approved
Dealer if more than 0.5 litres is being
consumed every 600 miles (1,000 km)
after the running in period.
Oil change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.
In order to prevent splashback, it is
recommended that a funnel be used
when topping up/filling with oil.
– remove the dipstick and wipe with a
clean, lint-free cloth;
– push the dipstick in as far as it will
go (for vehicles equipped with a cap-
type dipstick C, screw the cap in as
far as it will go);
– take out the dipstick again;
– read the level: it should never fall
below minimum mark A or exceed
maximum mark B.
Once the operation has been comple-
ted, ensure that the dipstick is pushed
in as far as it will go or that the “cap-
type dipstick” is completely screwed in.
Deactivate the Stop and
Start function for any opera-
tion performed in the engine
compartment.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: topping up, filling (3/3)
Never run the engine in an
enclosed space as exhaust
gases are poisonous.
Resetting the alert after an oil
change
(depending on the vehicle)
If you change the oil yourself, you will
need to reset the oil change warning.
To do this, after switching on the igni-
tion, for ten seconds you must:
– Depress the accelerator pedal fully,
– with your foot on the accelerator, de-
press the brake pedal three times in
succession.
Reinitialisation is complete when the
# indicator light goes out. If this is
not the case, repeat the operation.
Special case: if you change the oil
before the oil change interval exceeded
warning is displayed, it will also be nec-
essary to reset the display. In this case,
the
# warning light comes on for
approximately 5 seconds to confirm the
reset.
The engine may be hot
during operations in close
proximity. In addition, the
engine cooling fan may
come on at any moment.
Risk of injury.
Exceeding the maximum
engine oil level
Under no circumstances
must the maximum fill level
be exceeded: risk of damage to the
engine and catalytic converter.
If the oil level exceeds the maximum
level, do not start your vehicle.
Contact an authorised dealer.
Deactivate the Stop and
Start function for any opera-
tion performed in the engine
compartment.
Oil change
Service interval: refer to the
Maintenance Document for your vehi-
cle.
Oil change capacity
Please refer to the maintenance docu-
ment for your vehicle, or contact an au-
thorised dealer.
Always check the engine oil level using
the dipstick, as explained previously (it
should never fall below the minimum
level, or be over the maximum level on
the dipstick).
Engine oil grade

your vehicle.

Batterie (H79 Ph2 - Dacia) ENG_NU_1079-6_H79Ph2_Dacia_4
BATTERY (1/2)
Battery 1 does not require any mainte-
nance.
Handle the battery with care
as it contains sulphuric acid,
which must not come into
contact with eyes or skin. If
it does, wash the affected area with
plenty of cold water and consult a
doctor, if necessary.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot
objects and sparks do not come into
contact with the battery as there is a
risk of explosion.
1
The charge status of your battery can
decrease especially if you use your
vehicle:
– for short journeys;
– for driving in town;
– when the temperature drops;
– after extended use of consumers
(radio etc.) with the engine switched
off.
Replacing the battery
As this operation is complex, we advise
you to contact an approved Dealer.
As the battery is specific
to the vehicle (presence of
a ventilation pipe to expel
corrosive and explosive
gases), make sure that it is replaced
with a battery that enables this pipe
to be connected. Please contact an
authorised dealer.
Deactivate the Stop and
Start function for any opera-
tion performed in the engine
compartment.

Kit de gonflage des pneumatiques (H79 Ph2 - Dacia) ENG_NU_1079-6_H79Ph2_Dacia_5
TYRE INFLATION KIT (4/4)
Once the tyre is correctly inflated,
remove the kit: slowly unscrew the in-
flation adapter 1 to prevent any repair
product from escaping and store the
container in plastic packaging to pre-
vent the product from escaping.
– Affix the driving recommendation
label to the dashboard where it can
easily be seen by the driver;
– Put the kit away.
– At the end of this initial inflation op-
eration, air will still escape from the
tyre. You must drive a short distance
in order to seal the hole.
– Start immediately and drive at be-
tween 12 and 40 mph (20 and
60 km/h) in order to distribute the
product evenly in the tyre and, after
driving for 2 miles (3 km), stop and
check the pressure.
– If the pressure is greater than 1.3 bar
but less than the recommended
pressure (refer to the label affixed to
the edge of the driver’s door), read-
just it. Otherwise, please contact an
authorised dealer: the tyre cannot be
repaired.
Precautions when using the
kit
The kit should not be operated for more
than 15 consecutive minutes.
1
Following repair with the kit,
do not travel further than
120 miles (200 km). In addi-
tion, reduce your speed and
under no circumstances exceed
48 mph (80 km/h). The sticker,
which you must affix in a prominent
position on the dashboard, reminds
you of this.
Depending on the country or local
legislation, a tyre repaired with the
inflation kit may need to be replaced.
