ADVICE ON ANTI-POLLUTION AND HOW TO ECONOMISE ON FUEL(continued)
Monitoring exhaust gas
The exhaust gas monitoring system
will detect any malfunctioning of
the vehicle’s exhaust gas
depollution system.
If this system malfunctions, toxic
substances may be released into the
atmosphere or mechanical damage
may occur.
This warning light on the
instrument panel will
indicate if there are any
problems with the system.
It illuminates when the ignition is
switched on and extinguishes
within 3 seconds.
- If it illuminates continuously,
consult your Renault Dealer as
soon as possible.
- If it flashes, reduce the engine
speed until the light stops
flashing. Consult your Renault
Dealer as soon as possible.
Driving
•Drive carefully for the first few
miles until the engine reaches its
normal operating temperature.
• Speed is expensive.
• “Snappy” driving uses a lot of
fuel: drive with a “light right
foot”.• Take your foot off the accelerator
pedal to slow down rather than
use the brakes wastefully and
judge the road well in advance.
• Avoid fierce acceleration.
•Donotoverrevtheengineinthe
intermediate gears.
Always use the highest ratio
possible without labouring the
engine.
On versions with an automatic
transmission, it is preferable to
keep your the gear lever inD.
•Donottrytomaintainthesame
speed up a hill; accelerate no
more than you would on the level.
Keep your foot in the same
position on the accelerator pedal.
• Double declutching and
accelerating before switching off
are superfluous actions in
modern cars.
• Bad weather, flooded roads
Do not drive through
floods if the depth of
water is above the lower
edge of the wheel rims.
