he oil replacement indicator is displayed
in the vehicle information display.
• The engine oil should be changed before the
distance to oil change reaches
0km(0miles).
Continued driving after the distance to oil
change reaches 0km(0miles) may result in
reduced engine performance.
• The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) may also
become saturated because regeneration is
restricted once the distance to oil change
reaches 0km(0m iles).
Have the vehicle inspected by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop if the above con-
dition occurs.
• The oil change interval will reduce faster with
certain types of driving, especially at low
speeds in urban conditions.
3. Low level reminder
If the low level indicator is displayed, the engine oil level is low. If the low level reminder is displayed,
check the level using the engine oil dipstick. (See
“Checking engine oil level” in the “8. Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section.)
CAUTION
The oil level should be checked regularly using
the engine oil dipstick. Operating with an insuffi-
cient amount of oil can damage the engine and
such damage is not covered by the warranty. 4. Oil level sensor warning
If the oil sensor warning is displayed, the engine oil
level sensor may be malfunctioning. Contact an ap-
proved dealer or qualified workshop immediately.
CLOCK AND OUTSIDE AIR
TEMPERATURE (where fitted)
The clock
➀and outside air temperature
➁are
displayed on the upper side of the vehicle informa-
tion display.
[Clock]
For details of how to set the clock, see “Settings”
earlier in this section or the separately provided
Touchscreen Navigation Owner’s manual.
[Outside Temp.] (°C or °F)
The outside air temperature is displayed in °C or °F
in the range of −40 to 60°C (−40 to 140°F). The outside air temperature mode includes
alow
temperature warning feature. If the outside air tem-
perature is below 3°C (37°F), the warning ➂is dis-
played on the screen (where fitted).
The outside temperature sensor is located in front of
the radiator. The sensor may be affected by road or
engine heat, wind directions and other driving con-
ditions. The display may differ from the actual out-
side temperature or the temperature displayed on
various signs or billboards. JVI0932XZ
2-30 Instruments and controls

The Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) reduces the
amount of materials that affect the environment by
collecting particulate matter included in exhaust
gases. Normally, particulate matter accumulated in
the DPF is automatically burned and converted to
harmless substances during driving. However, par-
ticulate matter collected in the DPF cannot be
burned under the following conditions:
• When vehicle speed remains below 15 km/h (10
MPH) for
along period of time.
• When the engine is frequently stopped and re-
started within 10 minutes.
• When the vehicle is frequently used for short
journeys of 10 minutes or less.
• When the engine is frequently stopped before it
has warmed up.
In these cases, it becomes difficult to burn particu-
late matter that has accumulated in the DPF auto-
matically. As aresult, the DPF warning light in the
meter will illuminate and the indicator light on the
DPF regeneration switch will blink. This is not amal-
function.
If the DPF warning light comes on, perform the DPF
regeneration process.
CAUTION
If the vehicle continues to be driven with the DPF
warning light illuminated and without doing the
regeneration process, the fail-safe will limit the
engine revolutions and/or torque. In this case, the engine oil must be replaced and the process
of service regeneration must be carried out by an
approved dealer or qualified workshop.
The service regeneration is not covered by the
warranty.
AUTOMATIC REGENERATION
If the DPF warning light comes on, it indicates that
particulate matter has accumulated in the DPF to
the specified limit. Particulate matter collected in the
DPF cannot be burned under low speed driving con-
ditions.
As soon as safely possible, drive the vehicle at a
high speed (more than approximately 80 km/h (50
MPH)) until the DPF warning light turns off. Always
conform to local regulations.
When the accumulated particulate matter has been
completely burned, the DPF warning light will turn
off. Pick-up vehicles have
asignificantly higher roll-
over rate than other types of vehicles.
They have higher ground clearance than passenger
cars to make them capable of performing in awide
variety of on-pavement and off-road applications.
This gives them ahigher centre of gravity than ordi-
nary cars. An advantage of higher ground clearance
is ab etter view of the road, allowing you to antici-
pate problems. However, they are not designed for
cornering at the same speeds as conventional pas-
senger cars any more than low-slung sports cars
are designed to perform satisfactorily under off-road
conditions. If at all possible, avoid sharp turns or
abrupt manoeuvres, particularly at high speeds. As
with other vehicles of this type, failure to operate
this vehicle correctly may result in loss of control or
vehicle rollover.
For information about driving using Four-Wheel
Drive (4WD) (where fitted), see “Four-Wheel Drive
(4WD) (where fitted)” later in this section.
DRIVING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Please observe the following precautions: WARNING
• Drive carefully when off the road and avoid
dangerous areas. Every person who drives or
rides in this vehicle should be seated with
their seat belt fastened. This will keep you
and your passengers in position when driving
over rough terrain.

VEHICLE BATTERY
WARNING
Do not operate the vehicle if the fluid in the bat-
tery is low. Low battery fluid can cause ahigher
load on the battery which can generate heat, re-
duce battery life, and in some cases lead to an
explosion.
Checking battery fluid level Check the fluid level in each cell. The battery fluid
level should be between the UPPER LEVEL
➀and
LOWER LEVEL ➁lines.
If it is necessary to add fluid, add only demineralised/
distilled water to bring the level to the indicator in
each filler opening. Do not overfill.
1. Remove the cell plugs ➂using
asuitable tool.
2. Add demineralised/distilled water up to the UP- PER LEVEL ➀line.
If the side of the battery is not clear, check the
distilled water level by looking directly above the
cell; the condition j
Ai ndicates OK and the con-
dition jBn eeds more to be added.
3. Replace and tighten the cell plugs.
• Vehicles operated in high temperatures or under
severe conditions require frequent checks of the
battery fluid level.
• Keep the battery surface clean and dry. Any cor-
rosion should be cleared with
afirmly wrung out
moist cloth.

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.
