- top-up the level (for information, the capacity between the minimum
and maximum readings on the
dipstick 2is 1.5-2 litres depending
on the engine);
- wait for approximately 10 minutes to allow the oil to drain into the
engine;
- check the level using the dipstick 2
(as explained above);
Do not exceed the Maximumlevel
and do not forget to refit cap 1.
Topping up/filling
The vehicle must be parked on level

BATTERY: troubleshooting (continued)
Connecting a battery charger
The battery charger should be
compatible with a battery with a
nominal voltage of 12 Volts.
With the engine switched off, it is
essential to disconnect the cables
connected to both battery terminals,
starting with the negative terminal .
Do not disconnect the battery when
the engine is running. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions for the
battery charger you are using.
Only a well-charged and well-
maintained battery will have a long
and useful life and enable you to
start the vehicle’s engine normally.
The battery must be kept clean and
dry.
Have the battery’s charge status
checked regularly:
 Especially if you use your vehicle for short journeys or for frequent
driving in town.  When the external temperature
drops (in winter), the charge
decreases . In winter, only use
electrical equipment which is
really necessary.
 Finally, you should understand that the charge decreases naturally
as a result of certain “permanent
electrical consumers” such as the
clock, After-Sales accessories, etc.
When many accessories are fitted to
the vehicle, have them connected
to + after ignition feed . In this case,
it is advisable to have your vehicle
fitted with a battery which has an
increased capacity. Contact your
RENAULT Dealer. If your vehicle is to be left stationary
for a relatively long time, disconnect
the battery or have it recharged
regularly, in particular during cold
weather. The equipment with a
memory, radio etc. will then have to
be reprogrammed. The battery must
be stored in a cool dry place,
protected from frost.
Special procedures may
be required to charge
some batteries. Contact
your RENAULT Dealer.
Avoid all risk of sparks which
may cause an immediate
explosion and charge the battery
in a well-ventilated area. Risk of
serious injury.

BATTERY: troubleshooting (continued)
Starting the vehicle using the
battery from another vehicle
Proceed as follows when starting
your vehicle from another vehicle’s
battery:
Obtain suitable jump leads (with a
large cross section) from a
RENAULT Dealer or, if you already
have jump leads, ensure that they
are in perfect condition.
The two batteries must have an
identical voltage: 12 volts. The
battery supplying the current should
have a capacity (amp-hours, Ah)
which is at least the same as that of
the discharged battery.
Ensure that there is no risk of
contact between the two vehicles
(risk of short circuiting when the
positive terminals are connected)
and that the discharged battery is
properly connected. Switch off your
vehicle ignition.
Start the engine of the vehicle
supplying the current and run it at
an intermediate engine speed. Check that there is no contact
between cables
Aand Band that
cable A(+) is not touching any metal
parts on the vehicle supplying the
current.
Start the engine as you would
normally. As soon as it is running,
disconnect cables A and B in the
inverse order (4-3-2-1).
Secure the positive cable (+) Ato the
(+) terminal 1 of the discharged
battery, then to the (+) terminal2 of
the battery supplying the current.
Attach negative cable (–) B to (–)
terminal 3 of the battery supplying
the current and then to (–) terminal4
of the discharged battery.

It is essential that you use unleaded petrol
with the octane rating stated on the label
inside the fuel filler flap.
If not available, for a limited time only,
unleaded fuel
- with an octane rating of 91 for a label with the ratings 95 or 98;
- with an octane rating of 87 for a label with the ratings 91, 95 or 98. Diesel
The label located inside the fuel filler flap indicates authorised fuels
Only use the spark plugs specified for your
vehicle’s engine.
The type should be marked on a label
stuck inside the engine compartment. If it
is not then contact your RENAULT Dealer.
Fitting spark plugs which are not to
specification may damage the engine.
