FUEL TANK (5/5)
Running out of fuel on diesel
versions
Vehicle with priming bulb 5
After a breakdown caused by com-
pletely running out of fuel, the system
must be reprimed before the engine is
restarted:
Fill the tank with at least 8 litres of
diesel fuel.
Press priming bulb 5 several times.
The engine may be hot
when working in close prox-
imity. In addition, the engine
cooling fan may come on at
any moment.
Risk of injury.
No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wiring,
fuel circuit, injector, protection
covers, etc.) as this may be danger-
ous (such work must be undertaken
by qualified Network personnel).
The engine can now be restarted.
If the engine does not start after several
attempts, contact an approved Dealer.
Vehicles without priming bulb 5
Put the ignition key in “Ignition On” (M)
position and wait a few minutes before
starting. This will enable the fuel circuit
to be primed. If the engine does not
start, repeat the procedure.

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 com-
pleted, ensure that the dipstick is
pushed in as far as it will go or that
the “cap-type dipstick” is completely
screwed in.

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
Refer to the maintenance document for
your vehicle.
Engine oil change: if you
are changing the oil when
the engine is hot, be careful
not to scald yourself if the
oil overflows.
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.
Filling: take care when
topping up the oil that
no oil drips onto engine
components - risk of fire.
Remember to refit the cap securely
as there is a risk of fire if oil splashes
onto hot engine components.
Never run the engine in an
enclosed space as exhaust
gases are poisonous.
Consult an approved dealer at once
if you notice an abnormal or re-
peated drop in any of the fluid levels.
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.

brake shoes become worn, but it must
never drop lower than the “MINI” warn-
ing line shown on brake fluid reser-

Coolant
With the engine switched off and on
level ground, the level when cold must
be between the MINI and MAXI marks
on reservoir 2.
Top this level up when cold before it
reaches the MINI mark.
No operations should be
carried out on the cooling
circuit when the engine is
hot.
Risk of burns.
Checking intervals
Check the coolant level regularly
(very severe damage is likely to be
caused to the engine if it runs out of
coolant).
If the level needs to be topped up, only
use products approved by our Technical
Department which ensure:
– protection against freezing;
– anti-corrosion protection of the cool- ing system.
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Service
Booklet for your vehicle.
Consult an approved dealer at once
if you notice an abnormal or re-
peated drop in any of the fluid levels.

Batterie (X52 - Dacia)
ENG_NU_993-5_X52_Dacia_4
BATTERY
The battery 1 does not require any
maintenance.
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. Consult an ap-
proved Dealer.
Handle the battery with
care as it contains sulphu-
ric acid, which must not
come into contact with eyes
or skin. If it does, wash the affected
area with plenty of water and see 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.
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;
– 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.
