Battery

BAtteRy

(1/2)

The engine may be hot

during operations in close

proximity. In addition, the

engine cooling fan may

start at any moment.
Risk of injury.

Depending on the vehicle, the battery is

in the engine compartment or in the lug-

gage compartment.
It is always maintenance-free.
Depending on the vehicle, a system

continuously checks the battery charge

status. If the level drops, the message

“Battery low start engine” is displayed

on the instrument panel. In this case,

start the engine. Then the message

“Battery charging” appears on the in-

strument panel.
The charge status of your battery can

decrease especially if you use your ve-

hicle:
– for short journeys;
– for driving in town;
– when the temperature drops;
– when the radio is used for extended

periods with the engine switched off

etc.

Handle the battery with care

as it contains sulphuric acid

which must not come into

contact with the eyes or

skin. If it does, wash the affected

area with plenty of cold water. If

necessary, consult a doctor.
Ensure that naked flames, red hot

objects and sparks do not come into

contact with the battery as there is a

risk of explosion.

The battery is a

specific

type, please ensure it is

replaced with the same

type. Consult an approved

dealer.

Label A

Observe the indications on the battery:

– 1 naked flames and smoking are for-

bidden;

you should

Wash your car frequently,

with the

engine off, with cleaning products rec-

ommended by the manufacturer (never

use abrasive products). Rinse thor-

oughly beforehand with a jet:

– spots of tree resin and industrial

grime;

– mud in the wheel arches and under-

neath the body which forms damp

patches;

–

bird droppings, which cause a

chemical reaction with the paint that

rapidly discolours paintwork and

may even cause the paint to peel

off;

wash the vehicle

immediately to

remove these marks since it is im-

possible to remove them by polish-

ing;

– salt, particularly in the wheel arches

and underneath the body after driv-

ing in areas where the roads have

been gritted.

Remove any plant matter (resin, leaves,

etc.) from the vehicle regularly.

What you should not do

Do not degrease or clean mechani-

cal components (e.g. the engine com-

partment), underneath the body, parts

with hinges (e.g. inside the doors) and

painted plastic external fittings (e.g.

bumpers) using high-pressure clean-

ing equipment or by spraying on prod-

ucts not approved by our Technical

Department. Doing this could give rise

to corrosion or operational faults.
Wash the vehicle in bright sunlight or

freezing temperatures.
Do not scrape off mud or dirt without

pre-wetting.
Allow dirt to accumulate on the exterior.
Allow rust to form following minor im-

pacts.
Do not use solvents not approved by

our Technical Department to remove

stains as this could damage the paint-

work.
Do not drive in snow or muddy condi-

tions without washing the vehicle, par-

ticularly under the wheel arches and

body.

A well-maintained vehicle will last

longer. It is therefore recommended to

maintain the exterior of the vehicle reg-

ularly.
Your vehicle has been treated with very

effective anti-corrosion products. It is

nevertheless subject to various outside

influences.

Corrosive agents in the atmosphere

– atmospheric pollution (built-up and

industrial areas),

– saline atmospheres (near the sea,

particularly in hot weather),

– seasonal and damp weather condi-

tions (e.g. road salt in winter, water

from road cleaners, etc.).

Minor impacts
Abrasive action

Dust and sand in the air, mud, road grit

thrown up by other vehicles, etc.
You should take a number of minor pre-

cautions in order to safeguard your ve-

hicle against such risks.

ENG_NU_936-5_BK91_Renault_4

Respect local regulations about wash-

ing vehicles (e.g. do not wash your ve-

hicle on a public highway).
Observe the vehicle stopping distances

when driving on gravelled surfaces to

prevent paint damage.
Repair, or have repaired quickly, areas

where the paint has been damaged, to

prevent corrosion spreading.
Remember to visit the body shop pe-

riodically in order to maintain your

anti-corrosion warranty. Refer to the

Maintenance Document.
If it is necessary to clean mechani-

cal components, hinges, etc., spray

them with products approved by our

Technical Department to protect them

after they have been cleaned.

We have selected special products

to care for your vehicle and you can

obtain these from the manufactur-

er’s accessory outlets.

Using a roller type car wash

Return the windscreen wiper stalk to

the Park position (refer to the informa-

tion on the “Windscreen washer, wiper”

in Section 1). Check the mounting of

external accessories, additional lights

and mirrors, and ensure that the wiper

blades are secured with adhesive tape.

Remove the radio aerial mast if your

vehicle is fitted with this equipment.

Remember to remove the tape and refit

the antenna after washing.

Cleaning the headlights

As the headlights are made of plastic

“glass”, use a soft cloth or cotton wool

to clean them. If this does not clean

them properly, moisten the cloth with

soapy water, then wipe clean with a soft

damp cloth or cotton wool.

Finally, carefully dry off with a soft dry

cloth.
Cleaning products containing alco-

hol must not be used.

Vehicles with a matte paint

finish

This type of paint requires certain pre-

cautions.

Do not do the following
– use wax-based products (polishing);

– rub hard;

– wash the vehicle in a roller-type car

wash;

– wash the vehicle using a high-pres-

sure device;

– attach stickers to the paintwork (risk

of leaving marks).

you should do the following
Wash the vehicle by hand using plenty

of water, using a soft cloth or a gentle

sponge.

order to clean the passenger com-

partment (for example, mats), always

ensure that they are correctly refitted

and are the right way around (the driv-

er’s mat should be fitted on the driver’s

side, etc.) and fit them with the compo-

nents supplied with the equipment (for

example, the driver mat should always

be fixed using the pre-fitted mounting

components).

gency spare wheel disappears from the

instrument panel display).
Refer to the information on the “Tyre

pressure monitor” in Section 2.

In the event of a puncture,

depending on the vehicle,

you will have:

An emergency spare wheel or tyre in-

flation kit (refer to the information on the

following pages).

emergency spare wheel

This is located in the luggage compart-

ment. To access it:

– open the tailgate;

– lift up the luggage compartment

carpet 1 and 2;

– unscrew the central mounting;

– remove the emergency spare wheel.

If the emergency spare wheel has been stored for several years, have it checked by your Dealer to ensure that it is

safe to use.

Vehicles fitted with an emergency spare wheel smaller than the four other wheels:

– Never fit more than one emergency spare wheel to the same vehicle.
– Replace the emergency spare wheel as soon as possible with a wheel with the same dimensions as the original.
– When this is fitted to the vehicle, which must only be a temporary measure, the driving speed must not exceed the speed

indicated on the label on the wheel.

– Fitting an emergency spare wheel may alter the way the vehicle usually runs. Avoid sudden acceleration or deceleration and

reduce your speed when cornering.

– If you need to use snow chains, fit the emergency spare wheel to the rear axle and check the tyre pressure.

(1/5)

Do not attempt to use the

inflation kit if the tyre has

been damaged as a result

of driving with a puncture.

You should therefore carefully check

the condition of the tyre sidewalls

before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or

punctured tyres can be dangerous

and may make the tyre impossible

to repair.
this repair is temporary
A tyre which has been punctured

should always be inspected (and re-

paired, where possible) as soon as

possible by a specialist.
When taking a tyre which has been

repaired using this kit to be replaced,

you must inform the specialist.
When driving, vibration may be felt

due to the presence of the repair

product injected into the tyre.

The kit is only approved for

inflating the tyres of the ve-

hicle originally equipped

with the kit.

It must never be used to inflate

the tyres of another vehicle, or any

other inflatable object (rubber ring,

rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when han-

dling the repair liquid bottle. If drop-

lets do leak out, rinse them off with

plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil-

dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle

in the countryside. Return it to your

approved dealer or to a recycling or-

ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service

life which is indicated on its label.

Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re-

place the inflation tube and repair

product bottle.

The kit repairs tyres when

tread A has been dam-

aged by objects smaller

than 4 mm. It cannot repair

all types of puncture, such as cuts

larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre

sidewall B.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in

good condition.
Do not pull out the foreign body

causing the puncture if it is still in

the tyre.

– unscrew the valve cap of the wheel

concerned and screw inflation

hose 10 onto the valve;

– connect end piece 9 to one of the ve-

hicle’s accessories sockets (refer to

the information on the “Accessories

socket” in Section 3) then press

switch 7 to inflate the tyre to the rec-

ommended pressure (refer to the

label located on the edge of the driv-

er’s door);

– after a maximum of 5 minutes, stop

inflating and read the pressure on

pressure gauge 6. To adjust the

pressure if necessary: continue in-

flating to increase the pressure or

press button 5 to decrease it.

If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is

not reached after 15 minutes, repair

is not possible; do not drive the ve-

hicle but contact an approved dealer.

Before using this kit, park

the vehicle at a sufficient

distance from traffic, switch

on the hazard warning

lights, apply the handbrake, ask all

passengers to leave the vehicle and

keep them away from traffic.

Once the tyre is inflated correctly:

– stop using the kit;
– slowly unscrew the two inflation end

pieces 8 and 10;

– screw end piece 10 onto the bottle

so that no product escapes;

– Affix the driving recommendation

label, located under bottle 1, to the

dashboard where it can easily be

seen by the driver;

– store the kit;

– after the first inflation procedure the

tyre will still be leaking; it is vital to

drive in order to plug the hole;

– Start immediately and drive at be-

tween 12 and 36 mph (20 and

60 km/h) to distribute the product

evenly throughout the tyre, stopping

after a distance of 2 miles (3 kilome-

tres) to check the pressure;

– if the pressure is above 1.3 bar but

lower than the recommended pres-

sure, readjust it (refer to the label

affixed to the edge of the driver’s

door), otherwise contact an ap-

proved dealer: repair is not possible.

note: after using the inflation kit, you

should visit an approved Dealer to re-

place the inflation hose and the bottle

of repair product.

Precautions when using the kit
The kit should not be operated for more

than 15 consecutive minutes.

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.

Nothing should be placed

around the driver’s feet

as such objects may slide

under the pedals during

sudden braking manoeuvres and

obstruct their use.

Please be aware that a

poorly tightened or miss-

ing valve cap can make the

tyres less airtight and lead

to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to

those fitted originally and tighten

them fully.

lead to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to

those fitted originally and tighten

them fully.

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.

Changing a wheel

Start cranking the jack up by hand to

align the base plate (which should be

pushed slightly under the vehicle).
Turn the wheelbrace until the wheel lifts

off the ground.

cHAnGInG A WHeeL

(1/2)

Vehicles equipped with a jack

and wheelbrace

If necessary, remove the wheel trim.
Use the wheelbrace 3 to slacken off the

wheel bolts. Position it so as to be able

to push from above.
Line jack 4 up horizontally, the jack

head must be positioned at the same

height as plate mounting 1, as close as

possible to the wheel concerned, indi-

cated by an arrow 2.

Switch on the hazard warn-

ing lights.
Keep the vehicle away from

traffic and on a level sur-

face where it will not slip (if neces-

sary, place a solid support under the

jack base).
Apply the parking brake and engage

a gear (first or reverse, or

P for auto-

matic transmissions).

Ask all the passengers to leave the

vehicle and keep them away from

traffic.

To prevent any risk of injury

or damage to the vehicle,

only crank the jack until the

wheel you are replacing is

a maximum of 3 centimetres off the

ground.

If the vehicle is parked on

the hard shoulder, you must

warn other road users of

your vehicle’s presence

with a warning triangle or with other

devices as per the legislation apply-

ing to the country you are in.

If the vehicle is not equipped with a

jack or wheelbrace, you can obtain

these from your approved dealer.

If you use anti-theft bolts, fit these

nearest the valve (wheel embel-

lisher may not be able to fit).

If you have a puncture, re-

place the wheel as soon as

possible.
A tyre which has been punc-

tured should always be inspected

(and repaired, where possible) by a

specialist.

Undo the bolts and take off the wheel.
Fit the emergency spare wheel on the

central hub and turn it to locate the

mounting holes in the wheel and the

hub.
If bolts are supplied with the emergency

spare wheel, only use these bolts for

the emergency spare wheel. Tighten

the bolts, checking that the wheel is

correctly positioned on its hub and un-

screw the jack.
With the wheel on the ground, tighten

the bolts fully and check they are

tight as quickly as possible: tightening

torque 130 N.m (tightening torque for

rear wheel drive vehicles: 145 N.m).
