BATTERY: breakdown (continued)
Connecting a battery charger
Both battery leads must be
disconnected (engine switched off).
Do not disconnect the battery when
the engine is running. Follow the
instructions for use given by the
manufacturer of 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
diminishes. In winter, only use
those electrical consumers which
are really necessary.
• Finally, you should understand
that the charge decreases
naturally as a result of certain
permanent consumers such as:
the clock, after sales accessories,
etc.
When a large number of accessories
are fitted to the vehicle, have them
connected to + after ignition.Inthis
case, it is advisable to have your
vehicle fitted with a battery which
has an increased nominal capacity.
Consult 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
and trip computer will then have to
be reprogrammed. The battery must
be stored in a cool dry place,
protected from frost.
Specific procedures may
be required to charge
some batteries. Consult
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.
