I - PREPARATION OPERATION FOR THE
MEASUREMENT DEVICE
aCheck that the measurement device functions prop-
erly (see the device's instruction manual).
aSet units to ˚C.
aSet the device's sensitivity to 0.1˚C.
aSet the reading mode to (∆T) = (T1 - T2)aCheck the two sensors T1 and T2 in order to calcu-
late the correction (∆) to be applied to the measure-
ment (T1 - T2). the two sensors must indicate the
same measurement under the same conditions.
Check the sensors by:
-bringing the ends of the 2 sensors together until
they touch,
-placing the sensors in the air flow of an air vent,
-setting the passenger compartment fan assembly
to top speed.
-waiting for the value to become stable.
-recording the correction value (∆). Equipment required
Dual-sensor temperature measuring device
Note:
When performing RENAULT maintenance, check
the air conditioning system at the end of the vehi-
cle's maintenance program so that the engine will
be cold.
119360
119358
Note:
It is not necessary to start the vehicle. The
device display is in mode (∆T) = (T1 - T2).
WARNING
Note the diff erence and sign as soon as the tem-
per ature becomes stable.
Calculate the correction (∆) = - (T1 - T2) to be
applied to the measurement (∆T).
Examples:
If (T1 - T2) = - 0.3˚C, correct the measurement
(∆T) by (∆) = + 0.3˚C
If (T1 - T2) = + 0.3˚C, correct the measurement
(∆T) by (∆) = - 0.3˚C

II - VEHICLE PREPARATION OPERATION
aPut the vehicle in the shade, where the temperature
is greater than or equal to 15˚C minimum.
aClose the bonnet.
aOpen the front windows.
aStart the engine and let it idle.
aSet the air conditioning controls with:
-recirculation mode in the external position,
-the ventilation distribution in "face" mode,
-the temperature control to coldest temperature set-
ting in front (and at the back, if it exists),
-the speed of the passenger compartment fan as-
sembly set to maximum (switch off the rear control
if it exists),
-the front side and centre air vents open with the
vanes in a neutral position,
-the air conditioning system must be turned on (indi-
cator light illuminated).
aWait 5 minutes with the engine idling before tak-
ing any measurements.
III - MEASUREMENTS
aRecord the air temperature at the scuttle panel grille
(T3).
-open the bonnet, depending on the vehicle, to ac-
cess the scuttle panel grille.
-place the sensor where air is drawn through the
scuttle panel grille.-wait for the value to become stable.
-record the T3 temperature value.
-close the bonnet if it was opened.
aRecord the air temperature at the left air vent (T1),
and at the right air vent (T2).
-fit sensor T1 in the left air vent (1) .
-fit sensor T2 in the right air vent (2) .
aRecord the differences in temperature once the (∆T)
value has stabilised:
-between T3 and the higher of values T1 or T2, (T3
- highest value).
-record this difference in temperature.
-between T1 and T2 (read the (∆T) value (T1-T2)
display mode).
-record the difference in temperature (∆T) accord-
ing to the correction (∆) to be applied to the mea-
surement.
aIf the (∆T)=(T1-T2) measurement is unstable, follow
the procedure below:
119359
119357
Note:
Depending on the vehicle's air conditioning sys-
tem programming, this check method may not be
applicable because the engine cooling fan
assembly has been activated. Its operation ren-
ders the (∆Τ) value between T1 and T2 unstable.
To eliminate this error, the fan assembly must be
activated for the entire period over which temper-
ature T1 and T2 measurements are recorded.

aDrain the refrigerant circuit using a refrigerant
charging station (see 62A, Air conditioning, Re-
frigerant circuit: Draining - Filling, page 62A-8) .
aDisconnect the battery (see ) (80A, Battery).
aRemove:
-the wiper arms (see Windscreen wiper arm: Re-
moval - Refitting) (85A, Wiping - Washing),
-the scuttle panel grille (see Scuttle panel grille:
Removal - Refitting) (56A, Exterior equipment),

ting) (56A, Exterior equipment).
aRemove:
-the air filter unit (see Air filter unit: Removal - Re-
fitting) (12A, Fuel mixture),
-the upstream oxygen sensor (see Oxygen sen-
sors: Removal - Refitting) (17B, Petrol injection). Equipment requiredrefrigerant charging station

IMPORTANT
To avoid all risk of damage to the systems, apply
the safety and cleanliness instructions and opera-
tion recommendations before carrying out any
repair:
- (see 62A, Air conditioning, Air conditioning:
Precautions for the repair, page 62A-1) ,
- (see Vehicle: Precautions for the repair) (01D,
Mechanical introduction).
Note:
Use blanking plugs for the fuel circuits with part
numbers 77 01 208 229 or 77 01 476 857 to plug
any openings exposed to the open air. They must
be clean. Do not use any which have already been
used to plug a fuel circuit.
WARNING
To prevent moisture from entering the system,
place plugs on the cold loop components which are
open to the air.
WARNING
In order to avoid any refrigerant leaks, do not dam-
age (deform, twist, etc.) the pipe.
WARNING
To prevent the surrounding components from over-
heating, do not damage (tear, pierce, bend, etc.) a
heat shield.
Any damaged heat shields must be replaced.WARNING
Consult the device's operating manual to avoid
incorrect use.
