This will damage the paint. If clutch fluid is
spilled, wash it off with plenty of water immedi-
ately.
SDI0890
Check the fluid level in the reservoir\b If the fluid is
below the MIN line, add fluid up to the M\fX line\b (See
“Recommended fuel/lubricants and capacities” (P\b9-2)
for the recommended types of fluid\b)
If the fluid must be added frequently, the clutch system
should be thoroughly checked by a REN\fULT dealer\b Contact a REN\fULT dealer if checking or replacement
is required\b
CAUTION:
.
Use only fluids approved by our technical
department. Do not mix with other fluids.
. Using automatic transmission fluid other
than fluids approved by our technical de-
partment will cause deterioration in drive-
ability and transmission durability, and may
damage the transmission, which is not
