FUEL TANK (continued)
Filling with fuel
Petrol versions
Only use unleaded fuel.
Using leaded petrol will damage the
anti-pollution system 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 valve which only
allows the nozzle for unleaded
petrol to be used (at the petrol
pump).
- Insert the nozzle as far as it will go
so as to open the valve.
- Start to fill the tank with fuel and
keep the nozzle in this position
throughout the entire filling
operation.
Filling with fuel (continued)
Petrol and diesel versions
A maximum of two filling
operations may be made after the
fuel feed has switched off
automatically for the first time. The
fuel tank is designed to allow room
for expansion and this must be
retained.
Any operation on or
modification to the fuel
supply system (computers,
wiring, fuel circuit,
injector, protective covers...) is
strictly forbidden due to the
safety risks it may entail and
should only be carried out by
qualified staff from the Renault
network.
Persistent fuel odour
Your vehicle has a pressurised fuel
supply system. If you notice a
persistent fuel odour you should:
• stop the vehicle if traffic
conditions allow and switch off
the ignition;
• switch on the hazard warning
lights and ask your passengers to
leave the vehicle and stay clear of
the traffic;
• not operate on or restart the
vehicle before it has been
inspected by qualified staff from
the Renault network.
