Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
warning light (where fitted)
When the DPF warning light illuminates, it indicates
that particulate matter is accumulated to the speci- fied amount of the limit in the filter and the filter
needs to regenerate. For filter regeneration details,
see “Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) (where fitted)” in
the “5. Starting and driving” section.
CAUTION
If you continue driving with the DPF warning light
on without performing the filter regeneration, this
will lead to particulate matter overload in the fil-
ter.
If this occurs, then the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) will turn on. The performance of the engine
might be limited to protect the DPF system. See
an approved dealer or qualified workshop to per-
form the service regeneration. Door open warning light

operating.
When the warning light blinks while driving, the driv-
ing condition is slippery and the vehicle’s traction
limit is about to be exceeded.
If the ESP warning light illuminates while the engine
is running or while driving, it may indicate that the
ESP system is not functioning properly and may
need servicing. Have the system checked, and if
necessary repaired, by an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop promptly. If amalfunction occurs, the
ESP function is turned off, but the vehicle is still driv-
able. (See “Electronic Stability Programme (ESP)

light turns off. This indicates that the oil pressure
sensors in the engine are operational.
If the engine oil pressure warning light illuminates or
blinks while the engine is running, it may indicate
that the engine oil pressure is low.
Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible. Stop
the engine immediately and call an approved dealer
or qualified workshop. CAUTION
• Running the engine with the engine oil pres-
sure warning light illuminated could cause se-
rious damage to the engine.

RUNNING-IN SCHEDULE
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE
5-2 Starting and driving

Installing spare tyre
WARNING
• Never use wheel nuts which are not provided
with your vehicle. Incorrect wheel nuts or im-
properly tightened wheel nuts may cause the
wheel to become loose or come off. This
could cause an accident.
• Never use oil or grease on the wheel studs or
nuts. This may cause the wheel nuts to be-
come loose.
1. Clean any mud or dirt from the surface between the wheel and hub.
2. Carefully put the spare tyre on and tighten the wheel nuts with your fingers. Check that all the
wheel nuts contact the wheel surface horizon-
tally. 3. Tighten the wheel nuts alternately and evenly in
the sequence illustrated ( ➀-
➅ ), more than 2
times with the wheel nut wrench, until they are
tight.
4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tyre touches the ground.
5. Tighten the wheel nuts securely, with the wheel nut wrench, in the sequence illustrated.
6. Lower the vehicle completely.
Tighten the wheel nuts to the specified torque
with atorque wrench as soon as possible.
Wheel nut tightening torque:
133 N·m (13.6 kg-m, 98 ft-lb)
The wheel nuts must be kept tightened to speci-
fication at all times. It is recommended that the
wheel nuts be tightened to specification at each
lubrication interval. WARNING
Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has
been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles) (also in
case of aflat tyre, etc.).
Stowing damaged tyre and tools WARNING
Be sure that the tyre, jack and tools are properly
stored after use. Such items can become dan-
gerous projectiles in an accident or sudden stop. Securely store the damaged tyre, jack and tools in
the storage area in the reverse order of removal.
(See “Preparing tools” earlier in this section.)
REPAIRING FLAT TYRE (for models
with emergency tyre puncture repair kit)
The emergency tyre puncture repair kit is supplied
with the vehicle instead of aspare tyre. This repair
kit must be used for temporarily fixing aminor tyre
puncture. After using the repair kit, see an approved
dealer or qualified workshop as soon as possible for
tyre inspection and repair or replacement.
CAUTION
• RENAULT recommends using only Genuine
RENAULT Emergency Tyre Sealant provided
with your vehicle. Other tyre sealants may
damage the valve stem seal which can cause
the tyre to lose air pressure.
• Do not use the emergency tyre puncture re-
pair kit provided with your vehicle on other
vehicles.
• Do not use the emergency tyre puncture re-
pair kit for
apurpose other than to inflate and
check the tyre pressure for the vehicle.
• Use the emergency tyre puncture repair kit
only on DC12V.
• Keep water and dust off the emergency tyre
puncture repair kit.
• Do not disassemble or modify the emergency
tyre puncture repair kit. JVE0208XZ
6-6 In case of emergency

GLASS
Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and dust film
from the glass surfaces. It is normal for glass to
become coated with afilm after the vehicle is parked
in the hot sun. Glass cleaner and asoft cloth will
easily remove this film.
UNDERBODY
In areas where road salt is used in the winter, it is
necessary to clean the vehicle’s underbody regu-
larly in order to prevent dirt and salt from building up
and causing the acceleration of corrosion on the
underbody and suspension.
Before the winter and again in the spring, the under- seal must be checked and, if necessary, re-treated.
WHEELS
• Wash the wheels when washing the vehicle to
maintain their appearance.
• Clean the inner side of the wheels when the
wheel is changed or the underside of the vehicle
is washed.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners when washing the
wheels.
• Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or corro-
sion. This may cause loss of pressure or damage
the tyre bead.
• RENAULT recommends that the road wheels be
waxed to protect against road salt in areas where
it is used during winter. ALUMINIUM ALLOY WHEELS
Wash the wheels regularly with
asponge damp-
ened in amild soap solution, especially during win-
ter in areas where road salt is used. The salt residue
from road salt could discolour the wheels if it is not
washed off regularly.
CAUTION
Follow the directions below to avoid staining or
discolouring the wheels:
• Do not use
acleaner that uses strong acid or
alkali contents to clean the wheels.
• Do not apply wheel cleaners to the wheels
when they are hot. The wheel temperature
should be the same as ambient temperature.
• Rinse the wheel to completely remove the
cleaner within 15 minutes after the cleaner is
applied.
CHROME PARTS
Clean all chrome parts regularly with anon abrasive
chrome polish to maintain the finish. Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, plastic parts and seats using
avacuum cleaner
or soft bristled brush. Wipe the vinyl and leather sur-
faces with aclean, soft cloth dampened in mild soap
solution, then wipe clean with adry, soft cloth.
Regular care and cleaning is required in order to
maintain the appearance of the leather.
Before using any fabric protector, read the manu-
facturer’s recommendations. Some fabric protec-
tors contain chemicals that may stain or bleach the
seat material.
Use asoft cloth dampened only with water to clean
the meter and gauge lens covers.
CAUTION
• Never use benzene, thinner or any similar ma-
terial.
• Small dirt particles can be abrasive and dam-
aging to leather surfaces and should be re-
moved promptly. Do not use saddle soap, car
waxes, polishes, oils, cleaning fluids,
solvents, detergents or ammonia-based
cleaners as they damage the natural leather
finish.
• Never use fabric protectors unless recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
• Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on meter
or gauge lens covers. It may damage the lens
covers.
