Child safety: general information
CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly
seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children
are at risk of specific injuries as their
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone
would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph
(50 km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10
metres.
Transporting a child without
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your
arms. In the event of an accident,
you will not be able to keep hold of
the child, even if you yourself are
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in
a road accident, replace the child
seat and have the seat belts and
ISOFIX fittings checked.
Never leave a child unat-
tended in the vehicle.
Check that your child is
always strapped in and that
the belt or safety harness used is
correctly set and adjusted. Avoid
wearing bulky clothing which could
cause the belts to slacken.
Never let your child put their head or
arms out of the window.
Check that the child is in the correct
position for the entire journey, espe-
cially if asleep.
To prevent the doors being
opened, use the childproof
locks (refer to the informa-
tion on “Locking/unlocking
the doors” in Section 1).

FUEL TANK (2/3)
Vehicles running on ethanol-based
fuel
Always use unleaded petrol or fuel
containing a maximum of 85 percent
ethanol (E85).
In very cold conditions, it may be very
difficult or even impossible to start the
engine.
Note: you may notice an increase in
fuel consumption with this type of fuel.
When the fuel is changed the engine
must adjust, which may cause minor in-
conveniences for a few minutes (longer
starting times, cutting out, etc.).Fuel grade
Always use a high-grade fuel that
complies with the legislation in force
in each country. It must conform to the
specifications given on label
C

inside
the fuel filler flap.
Refer to the “Engine specifications”
table in Section 6.
Petrol version
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) must conform
to the specifications given on the label
inside fuel filler flap

C
.
Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that con-
forms to the specifications given on the
label inside fuel flap

C
.
Filling with fuel
Insert the nozzle to open valve A and
insert it fully before turning it on to fill
the fuel tank (risk of splashing).
Keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling operation.
When the pump cuts out automatically
at the end of the filling procedure, a
maximum of two further filling attempts
may be made, as there must be suffi-
cient space in the fuel tank to allow for
expansion.
Make sure that no water enters the fuel
tank during filling. The valve
A

and its
surround must remain clean.
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
antipollution system and may lead to a
loss of warranty.
To ensure that the fuel tank is not filled
with leaded petrol, the fuel tank filler
neck contains a restrictor fitted with a
foolproof system which only allows
the nozzle for unleaded petrol to be
used (at the pump).
Do not mix even small
amounts of petrol (un-
leaded or E85) with diesel.
Do not use ethanol-based
fuel if your vehicle is not compatible
with this fuel.
Do not add additive to the fuel other-
wise you risk damaging the engine.

Driving
–

Drive
carefully for the first few miles
until the engine reaches its normal
operating temperature, rather than
let it warm up while the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
–

Speed
is expensive.
–

Sporty
driving uses a lot of fuel: drive
with a light right foot.
–

Brake
as little as possible. If you an-
ticipate an obstacle or bend in ad-
vance, you may then simply release
the accelerator pedal.
–

A
void sudden acceleration.
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (2/3)
– Double declutching and accelerating before switching off are unnecessary
in modern vehicles.
–

D
o not try to maintain the same
speed up a hill, accelerate no more
than you would on the level. Keep
your foot in the same position on the
accelerator pedal.
–

Do
not overrev the engine in the in-
termediate gears. Always use the
highest gear possible without labour-
ing the engine.
On versions with an automatic gear-
box, it is preferable to keep the gear
lever in position D.
Your vehicle has a greater
ground clearance than an
ordinary passenger vehicle.
This gives it a higher centre
of gravity, making it more suscepti-
ble to rolling during sudden or ag-
gressive manoeuvres, or when cor-
nering at high speeds.
Take extra care when the vehicle is
loaded (in particular when the load
is on the roof).
Ensure that all passengers are
wearing their seat belts.
A label affixed to the sun visor re-
minds you of this.
Vehicles with 4x4 (4WD) trans-
mission
On flat, level ground, with the vehi-
cle unladen, you are recommended
to start in second gear.
Driving problems
On the driver ’s side, only
use mats specially adapted
for the vehicle and attached
to prefitted devices. Check regularly
to make sure they are secure. Do
not overlay several mats.
Risk of pedals jamming .

Conseils : antipollution, économies de carburant, conduite (H79 - Da\
cia)
ENG_NU_898-5_H79_Dacia_2
ADVICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving (3/3)
– In vehicles fitted with air condi-
tioning, it is normal to observe an
increase in fuel consumption (es-
pecially in urban conditions) when
it is used. For vehicles fitted with
manual air conditioning, switch off
the system when it is not required.
Advice for reducing consumption
and therefore helping to preserve
the environment:
If the vehicle has been parked in the
sun, open the doors for a few mo-
ments to let the hot air escape before
starting the engine.
–

N
ever fill the fuel tank right to the
brim to avoid overflow.
–

D
o not leave an empty roof rack
fitted to the vehicle.
–

It
is better to fit a trailer for bulky ob-
jects.
–

W
hen towing a caravan, fit a wind
deflector and adjust it carefully.
Advice on use
– Electricity is fuel; switch off all the electrical components which are
not really needed. However (safety
first), keep your lights on when the
visibility is bad (“see and be seen”).
–

U
se the air vents. Driving with the
windows open at 60 mph (100 km/h)
will increase fuel consumption by
4%. –

A
void using the vehicle for door-to-
door journeys (short journeys, with
long stops in-between) because in
these conditions, the engine never
reaches its ideal temperature.
Tyres
Increased fuel consumption could be
the result of:
–

insuf
ficient pressure,
–

using non-recommended tyres.

It
is important to comply with the towing weights, governed by local legislation in each country and, in particular, laid down in
the Road Traffic Regulations. Contact an authorised dealer for any towing equipment m\
odifications.
–

For
vehicles fitted with a trailer, the gross train weight (vehicle + trailer) must never be exceeded . However, the following
is tolerated:
–

the Maximum permissible wei
ght at the rear may be exceeded by no more than 15%,
–

the maximum permissible all-
up weight may be exceeded by no more than 10% or 100 kg (whichever occu\
rs first).
In

either case, the maximum speed of the vehicle and trailer must not exceed 60 mph (100 kph) and the tyre pressures must
be increased by 0.2 bar (3 PSI).
–

The
engine output and climbing capability are reduced with altitude. We recommend that the maximum load be reduced by 10%
at an altitude of 1,000 metres and by an additional 10% for each 1,000 m\
etres thereafter.
The weights shown are for a basic vehicle without options: they will vary depending on the equipment level of your ve-
hicle. Please consult an authorised dealer.
