TRANSPORTING OBJECTS IN THE LUGGAGE COMPARTMENT
Always place objects carried in the
luggage compartment so that their
largest dimension is against:
- the back of the rear bench seat, for
normal loading.
- the folded down seat, for
maximum loading.
Always put the heaviest
items directly onto the
floor. When the vehicle is
fitted with them, use the
lashing points located on the
floor at the rear to secure
transported items. Luggage
should be loaded in such a way
that no item will be thrown
forward and strike the occupants
if the driver has to brake
suddenly. Fasten the rear seat
belts, even if the seats are not
occupied.

OPERATING INCIDENTS(continued)
On the open road CAUSES REMEDIAL ACTION
• Steering becomes hard to turn. Belt broken. Have the belt replaced.
Lack of oil in pump. Top up oil (see maintenance section).
If the fault persists, consult your
Renault Dealer.
• The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature warning light illuminates
(or the needle on the gauge is in the
red zone).Water pump: belt slack or broken.
Faulty engine cooling fan.Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine
and call for the assistance of a Renault
Dealer.
Coolant leaks. Check the condition of the hoses and
clips.
Check the expansion bottle: it should
contain coolant. If it does not, top up
the level (after letting the engine cool
down). Take care not to burn yourself.
This action is only temporary: consult
your Renault Dealer as soon as
possible.
Radiator
Never fill a hot radiator with cold coolant if a considerable quantity has been lost. After any operation
on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling system, it must be refilled with a
new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved by our Technical
Department may be used for this purpose.
