Starting, Stopping the engine
STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
Never leave your vehicle with the key or remote control inside and never leave a child (or a pet) unsupervised, even 
for a short while.
The reason for this is that the child may endanger himself or others by starting the engine, activating equipment such 
as the window winders for example, or locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle has stopped completely. Once the engine has stopped, the brake servo, 
power assisted steering and passive safety equipment such as air bags wi\
ll no longer operate.
The steering is locked when the key is removed.

ENG_NU_975-3_X92_Dacia_2
–  Brake as little as possible by suitably 
anticipating an obstacle or bend and 
then simply releasing the accelerator 
pedal.
–  Avoid sudden acceleration.
–  Do  not  overrev  the  engine  in  the  in-
termediate gears.
Always  use  the  highest  gear  possi -
ble without labouring the engine.
–  Do  not  try  to  maintain  the  same 
speed  up  a  hill,  accelerate  no  more 
than you would on level roads. Keep 
your foot in the same position on the 
accelerator pedal.
–  Double declutching and accelerating 
before  switching  off  the  engine  are 
unnecessary in modern vehicles.
–  Bad weather, flooded roads.
Do  not  drive  through  water 
if  it  is  higher  than  the  lower 
edge of the wheel rim.
Exhaust gas monitoring 
system
The exhaust gas monitoring system will 
detect  any  operating  faults  in  the  vehi-
cle’s antipollution system.
If  this  system  malfunctions,  toxic  sub -
stances  may  be  released  into  the  at -
mosphere or damage may occur.
ÄThis  warning  light  on  the  in -
strument  panel  will  indicate  if 
there are any faults in the system:
This  lights  up  when  the  ignition  is 
switched  on  and  goes  out  when  the 
engine is started.
–  If  it  lights  up  continuously,  consult 
your  approved  dealer  as  soon  as 
possible;
–  if it flashes, reduce the engine speed 
until the light stops flashing. Contact 
your  approved  dealer  as  soon  as 
possible.
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.
ADvICE: antipollution, fuel economy and driving  (2/3)
Driver obstruction
On the driver’s side, only use mats suitable for the vehicle, attached with 
the pre-fitted components, and check the fitting regularly. Do not lay sev-
eral mats on top of each other.
There is a risk of wedging the pedals.
