FUEL INFORMATION
Diesel engine*
M9T 2.3DCI engine:
Diesel fuel above 50 cetane and with less than 10
ppm of sulphur (EN590) must be used.
* If two types of diesel fuel are available, use
summer or winter fuel properly according to
the following temperature conditions.
• Above –7°C (20°F) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
• Below –7°C (20°F) ... Winter type diesel fuel.
CAUTION
• Do not use home heating oil, petrol or other
alternate fuels in your diesel engine. The use
of those or adding those to diesel fuel can
cause engine damage.
• Do not use summer fuel at temperatures be-
low –7°C (20°F). The cold temperatures will
cause wax to form in the fuel. As
aresult, it
may prevent the engine from running
smoothly. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
(ATF)
Contact an approved dealer or qualified workshop if
checking or replacement is required.
CAUTION
• Use only ATF that is recommended in the
Maintenance Service Booklet. Do not mix with
other fluids.
• Using automatic transmission fluid other than
the ATF that is recommended in the Mainte-
nance Service Booklet may cause deteriora-
tion in driveability and automatic transmission
durability and may damage the automatic
transmission. Such damage is not covered by
the warranty.
AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM
REFRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT
The air conditioner system of your vehicle must be
charged with the refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a) and the lubricant specified in the maintenance service
booklet for your vehicle..
CAUTION
Use of any other refrigerants or lubricants will
cause severe damage, and you may need to re-
place your vehicle’s entire air conditioner sys-
tem. The release of refrigerants into the atmosphere is
prohibited in many countries and regions. The re-
frigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your vehicle will not
harm the Earth’s ozone layer. However, it may con-
tribute in asmall part to the global warming effect.
RENAULT recommends that the refrigerant be ap-
propriately recovered and recycled. Contact an ap-
proved dealer or qualified workshop when servicing
the air conditioner system.
