Trip mileage recorder reset
button
To reset the trip mileage recorder,
select the Trip mileage recorder
display, then press key 2until the
recorder is reset.
Resetting of the journey
parameters
With one of the trip parameters
selected on the display, press
button 2 until the display is reset.
Interpreting some of the values
displayed after resetting
The values showing average fuel
consumption, range and average
speed will become more stable and
reliable the further you travel since
the last time the reset button was
pressed.
For the first few miles after pressing
the reset button you may notice:
 that the range increases as you
travel.
This is normal; average fuel
consumption may decrease when:
- the vehicle stops accelerating,
- the engine reaches its operating temperature (engine cold when
reset button pressed),
- when you drive from a built up area on to the open road.  that the average fuel consumption
increases when the vehicle is
stationary with the engine idling.
This is normal since the computer
takes account of fuel used during
idling.
Automatic resetting of the
journey parameters
A reset is automatic when the
maximum value for any of the
parameters is exceeded.

Do not mix even small
volumes of petrol with
diesel.
Never
press the metal valve
with your fingers.
Do not wash the filler area
with a high-pressure washer.
FUEL TANK
Capacity of the fuel tank: 60 litres
approximately.
To open flap A, place your finger in
recess Bthen pull the flap.
The fuel anti-return system (metal
valve) Cis built into the filler pipe.
For details on filling the fuel tank,
refer to the information on filling
with fuel.
Fuel grade
Use a high grade fuel that complies
with the standards currently in force
in each country.
Petrol versions
It is essential to use unleaded petrol.
The octane rating (RON) must
conform with the information given
on the label inside fuel filler flap A.
Refer to Section 6 for information on
“Engine specifications”.
Diesel versions
It is essential to use diesel fuel that
conforms with the information
given on the label inside fuel filler
flap A.
Make sure that no water
accidentally enters the fuel tank
during filling. The shut-off system
and its surrounding area must be
dust-free.

No modifications what-
soever are permitted on
any part of the fuel supply
system (computers, wir-
ing, fuel circuit, injector, pro-
tection covers, etc.) as this may be
dangerous (such work must only
be undertaken by qualified
RENAULT Network personnel).
FUEL TANK (continued)
Filling up with fuel
Petrol versions
Using leaded petrol will damage the
anti-pollution devices 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).
- Insert the nozzle so that the metal valve is pushed back and then fully
insert it before beginning to fill the
tank (risk of splash-back).
- Keep the nozzle in this position throughout the entire filling
operation.
Persistent fuel odour
If you notice a persistent fuel odour
you should:
 stop the vehicle when traffic conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
 switch on the hazard warning lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and to keep away
from the traffic;
 not work on, or restart, the vehicle before it has been inspected by
qualified staff from the RENAULT
Network.
Filling up with fuel (continued)
Petrol and diesel versions
No more than two filling operations
may be made after the fuel feed has
switched off automatically for the
first time because there must be
sufficient space in the fuel tank to
allow for expansion.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
If you notice any of the above faults,
have the necessary repairs carried
out as soon as possible by your
RENAULT Dealer.
These faults may be avoided by
regularly taking your vehicle to your
RENAULT Dealer at the intervals
specified in your Warranty and
Services booklet.
Starting faults
To avoid damaging the catalytic
converter, do not keep trying to start
the engine (using the Start button, or
by pushing or towing the vehicle)
without having identified and
corrected the starting fault .
If the fault cannot be identified, do
not continue to try to start the
engine, contact a RENAULT Dealer.
The following operating conditions
should be avoided:

low fuel level warning light is lit,

are not approved by RENAULT.
Or operating faults such as:
fuel or spark plug disconnected
resulting in the engine misfiring
and bucking while driving,

may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat and thus reduce its
efficiency, or destroy it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle .
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible
substances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.

SPECIAL FEATURES OF DIESEL VERSIONS
Precautions to be taken in winter
To avoid any faults in icy weather:
fully charged,
full to avoid water vapour
condensing and accumulating at
the bottom of the tank.
Diesel engine speed
Diesel engines are fitted with
injection equipment
which prevents
the engine speed from being
exceeded irrespective of the gear
selected.
Running out of fuel
If the fuel tank has been drained
completely , you may start the
engine normally after refilling the
fuel tank provided that the battery is
well charged.
However, if after a few seconds and
several attempts the engine fails to
start, contact a RENAULT Dealer.
2.07
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible
substances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
