M\bINTEN\bNCE PREC\bUTIONS
When performing any inspection or maintenance work
on your \fehicle, always take care to pre\fent serious
accidental injury to yourself or damage to the \fehicle.
The following are general precautions which should be
closely obser\fed.
WARNING:
.Park the vehicle on a level surface, apply the
parking brake securely and block the wheels
to prevent the vehicle from moving. Move
the selector lever to the “P”(Park) position
or the shift lever to the “N”(Neutral) position.
. Be sure the ignition switch is in the “OFF”or
“LOCK” position when performing any parts
replacement or repairs.
. Do not work under the hood while the
engine is hot. Always turn off the engine
and wait until it cools down.
. If you must work with the engine running,
keep your hands, clothing, hair and tools
away from moving fans, belts and any other
moving parts.
. It is advisable to secure or remove any loose
clothing and any jewelry, such as rings,
watches, etc. before working on your vehi-
cle.
. If you must run the engine in an enclosed
space such as a garage, be sure there is
proper ventilation for exhaust gases to
escape. .
Never get under the vehicle while it is
supported by a jack.
. Keep smoking materials, flame and sparks
away from fuel and the battery.
. Never connect or disconnect either the
battery or any transistorized component
connector while the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.
. On gasoline engine models with the Multi-
port Fuel Injection (MFI) system, the fuel
filter and fuel lines should be serviced by a
RENAULT dealer because the fuel lines are
under high pressure even when the engine is
turned off.
. Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic
engine cooling fan. It may come on at any
time without warning, even if the ignition
switch is in the “OFF” position and the
engine is not running. To avoid injury, always
disconnect the negative battery cable before
working near the fan.
. Always wear eye protection whenever you
work on your vehicle.
. Never leave the engine or the transmission
related component harness connector dis-
connected while the ignition switch is in the
“ON” position.
. Avoid direct contact with used engine oil and
coolant. Improperly disposed engine oil,
engine coolant, and/or other vehicle fluids
can hurt the environment. Always conform to
local regulations for disposal of vehicle
fluids.
This “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section
pro\fides instructions regarding only those items which are relati\fely easy for an owner to perform.
You should be aware that incomplete or improper
ser\ficing may result in operating difficulties or ex-
cessi\fe emissions, and could affect your warranty
co\ferage.
If in doubt about any servicing, have it
done by a RENAULT dealer.

WARNING:
Do not operate the vehicle if the fluid in the
battery is low. Low battery fluid can cause a
higher load on the battery which can generate
heat, reduce battery life, and in some cases lead
to an explosion.

Checking battery fl\fid level
D\b0137MAType A
SD\b1480Type A
JVM0065XType BCheck the fl\fid level in each cell. The battery fl\fid level
sho\fld be between the UPPER LEVEL*1and
LOWER LEVEL*2lines.
\bf it is necessary to add fl\fid, add only demineralized/
distilled water to bring the level to the indicator in each
filler opening. Do not overfill.
1. Remove the cell pl\fgs
*A, if eq\fipped.
2. Add demineralized/disti\llled water \fp to the UPPER LEVEL
*1line.
3. Replace and tighten the cell pl\fgs.
. Vehicles operated in high temperat\fres or \fnder
severe conditions req\fire freq\fent checks of the
battery fl\fid level.
. Keep the battery s\frface clean and dry. Clean the
battery with a sol\ftion of baking soda and water.
. Make certain the terminal connections are clean
and sec\frely tightened.
. \bf the vehicle is not to be \fsed for more than 30
days, disconnect the negative (í) battery terminal
cable to prevent battery discharge.
. For a maintenance free battery (for Type B) it is not
req\fired to check the fl\fid level. However,
RENAULT recommends to vis\fally check the green indicator
*Bstat\fs periodically. \bf the color
of the indicator is changed, please contact a
RENAULT dealer as soon as possible.
For model with Stop/Start (\bdling Stop) System, see
“J\fmp starting” (P.6-8) .
J\fmp starting
\bf j\fmp starting is necessary, see “J\fmp starting” (P.6-
8) . \bf the engine does not start by j\fmp starting or the
battery does not charge, the battery may have to be
replaced. Contact a RENAULT dealer for replacing the
battery.
