Air conditioner filter (if equipped)
\fhe air conditioner s\bstem is equipped with an air
conditioner filter which collects pollen. \fo make sure
the air conditioner heats defogs, and ventilates
efficientl\b, replace the filter according the specified
maintenance intervals listed in a separate maintenance
booklet. \fo replace the filter, contact a RENAUL\f
dealer.
\fhe filter should be replaced if the air flow decreases
significantl\b or if windows fog up easil\b when operating
the heater or air conditioner.AUDIO OPERA\fION PRECAU\fIONS
WARNING:
Do not adjust the audio system while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle
operation.
\fhe audio s\bstem operates when the ignition switch is
in the “ACC” or “ON” position.
Radio
.Radio reception is affected b\b station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external
influences. Intermittent changes in reception
qualit\b normall\b are caused b\b these external
influences.
. Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle ma\b
influence radio reception qualit\b.
Compact Disc (CD) pla\ber
.During cold weather or rain\b da\bs, the pla\ber ma\b
malfunction due to the humidit\b. If this occurs,
remove the CD from CD pla\ber and dehumidif\b or
ventilate the pla\ber completel\b.
. \fhe pla\ber ma\b skip while driving on rough roads.
. \fhe CD pla\ber sometimes ma\b not function when
the passenger compartment temperature is ex-
tremel\b high. Lower the temperature before use.
. Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight.
. CDs that are of poor qualit\b, or are dirt\b,
scratched, covered with fingerprints, or that have
pin holes ma\b not work properl\b.
. \fhe following CDs ma\b not work properl\b.

8-4Maintenance and do-it-yourself
Window washer fluid*:
Check that there is adequate fluid in the reser\foir.
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.

fue\f fi\fter.
The fue\f fi\fter can be accessed after removin\b the fuse
box and the battery from the vehic\fe. Therefore,
RENAULT recommends that you contact a RENAULT
dea\fer for servicin\b.

Contact a RENAULT dea\fer if c\becking or rep\facement
is required.
CAUTION:
.Use only fluids approved by our technical
department. Do not mix with other fluids.
. Using transmission fluid other than fluids
approved by our technical department will
damage the CVT, which is not covered by the
warranty. T\be viscous paper type fi\fter e\fement s\bou\fd not be
c\feaned and reused.
T\be dry paper type fi\fter e\fement may be c\feaned and

tenance \fog s\bown in a separate maintenance book\fet.
Contact a RENAULT dea\fer if maintenance or rep\face-
ment is required.
WARNING:
Operating the engine with the air cleaner filter
off can cause you or others to be burned. The air
cleaner filter not only cleans the intake air, it
also stops flame if the engine backfires. If the air
cleaner filter is not installed and the engine
backfires, you could be burned. Never drive with
the air cleaner filter off. Be cautious working on
the engine when the air cleaner filter is off.
