How to change a tyre
The spare wheel (1), the jack (2) and the crank (3) are located in the front box. Remove the spare wheel to access the jack. The jack is embedded in one of the points (A) provided at the lower part of the body, near the rear part door.
Tip
The jack is designed for wheel change. In no cases it should be used to perform a repair under the vehicle.
How to change a wheel (continued)
To change a wheel.
• Tighten the handbrake to immobilize the rear wheels.
• Slightly unlock the wheel nuts by placing the press it to crank, not pull up.
• To lift the car: it is necessary to present the jack horizontally, the hook of the jack head should be turned to you (rotate if necessary), the jack head being under car, the hook should be flush with the housing of the support provided at the lower part of the body (1).
• Start the jack screw by hand to properly place his platform (slightly tucked under the car).
• On soft ground, always place a board under the platform.
• Insert the crank in the yoke by engaging one of the pins in the pinhole, and give a few turns to take off the wheel off the ground:
• Remove the nuts;
• Remove the wheel;
• Put the spare wheel in place on the upper mounting rod, and centre it on other fasteners;
• Tighten the bolts and lower the jack;
• Wheels on the ground, tighten the nuts.
Spare wheel
Important
The use of the spare wheel must always be short and be only in case of incident requiring wheel change: you have to change and repair the wheel normally fitted to the vehicle and go back on this one within the as soon as possible because the spare tyre is only a temporary repair means. Indeed:
• This wheel and tire were sized to have longevity only for temporary use (2000 km) under mild conditions: speed limit was 130 km / h, leisurely driving avoiding heavy braking loads, acceleration and cornering.
• Also, due to the different dimensions of the spare wheel, drivability of the vehicle may be slightly affected by the mounts of this wheel.
Tip
When you change a wheel:
• After a few kilometres, check the tightness of nuts;
• Monitor the pressure, and repair as quickly as possible flat tyre. As soon as it is repaired, refit it to where it was. Bring the spare tyre to the pressure of 3 bar before replacing it.

Before departure
Pneumatic safety - wheels
You must comply with the rules of the Highway Code. In addition, for good handling, it is recommended that you do mount on your car tyres of the same brand, same type and the same profile.
The tyres must be in good condition and the tread must have a relief enough; tyres by our technical department have tread wear indicators (1) are constituted by projections incorporated in the thickness of the tread.
When the tyre tread has been eroded to the level of the projections-control, they become visible (2), it is then necessary to replace your tyres because the tread is, at most, 1.6 mm and this leads to poor adhesion on wet roads.
It is important to respect INDICATED inflation pressures in the table 'tyre inflation pressure' they should be checked at least once a month and more before each journey. Also check the pressure of the spare wheel.
Insufficient pressure causes excessive wear and abnormal heating of tyres with all the attendant consequences on the safety plan:
-poor handling
-risk of bursting or de-treading.
Pressures should be checked cold: ignore higher pressures which may be reached in hot weather or after a high speed journey. If checking the pressure cannot be performed on cold tyres, the pressures indicated must be increased from 0.2 to 0.3 bar.
It is imperative never to deflate a hot tyre.
Driving incidents such as 'striking the curb', may damage the tyres and also lead to maladjustment of the front axle.
Whenever a shock occurs or that one cannot stop quickly as a result of a puncture, it is essential to promptly check the tyre by a specialist.
An overloaded vehicle, long journeys by motorway, particularly in hot weather, or continual driving on bad roads competitor has more rapid tyre wear and affect safety.
Spare wheel: Chapter: 'how to change a wheel"
Swapping wheels
This practice is not recommended.
Towing
Use only the towing points (1) provided in the front (and never driveshafts). These tie-down points may be used in tension: they should never be used for lifting the vehicle directly or indirectly.
The steering wheel should not be locked; the ignition key to position (M) (ignition) for signaling (lights 'STOP', direction indicators). At night the vehicle must be illuminated.
In addition, it is imperative to respect the towing conditions defined by the legislation in force in each country.
Brake servo. If this equipment is fitted, note that braking operation is no longer assisted when the engine is not running; if you have to brake, so you have to press harder on the pedal.
Driving on mountain roads, steep gradients, etc.
On vehicles equipped with an electric fan motor, there is no need to spend time unnecessarily in a lower gear in order to promote cooling by faster rotation of the motor; the fan being controlled electrically, it rotates so that it is necessary to stabilize the temperature of the water.
Using a workshop hoist:
Use the locations provided for our vehicles by our technical services.
Minor works
Lamp replacement
Removing headlight units
Lift the bonnet
Remove the spring (1) from the slot, rotate the light unit around the joint (5-6). To extract the light unit, point it toward the centre of the vehicle.
Refitting
Engage the pin (6) in the support hole (5), rotate the light unit to bring the pin (4) into the notch of the support (3) (motor side). Keep the hooking spring (1) in the recess (2). Replace the new lamp, thoroughly clean; it carries a stud which prohibits any orientation error.
Disconnecting the connector (7).
Tip
After replacing a headlight bulb, have the headlight adjustment checked.

Dispose of oil in correct drains.
Under no circumstances should you do engine flush.
Capacity: 3.5 liters.
Oil Filter
Replacement is planned in the Diagnostic Maintenance.
Provide an additional 0.25 liter each change of the oil filter.
Engine oil quality
In normal use: 15 W 40 multigrade oil.
Gearbox drain
First change between 1000 and 3000 km. Then every 15,000 km.
Drain plug 2. Filling in by the stopper 3.
Oil Quality
Use oil SAE 80 W (or SAE 75 W for very cold countries) corresponding to API GL 5 or MIL L 2105C.
Capacity: 2.8 lites.
Maintenance and Adjustment
Connection of spark plugs
Firing order 1-3-4-2.
Timing of ignition
The ignition settings require special equipment.
The timing is determined by the severe curve number on the distributor (1).
Vacuum unit disconnected:
10 Degrees (0 / -1), engine running less than 1100 rev / min.
30 Degrees (0 / -4), turn engine over 5000 r / min.
For curve R 309 / D 59.
Injection
The settings should be performed by a Renault agent.
Washing:
Do not wash your car in the sun. For easy washing the windshield, switch forwards the wiper blades. If you add to your wash water cleaning agent (use the products selected by our services), put in very little and then make its removal by rinsing with abundant clean water.
After washing the vehicle, check the effectiveness of your brakes.
Never put petrol, trichloroethylene, oil, benzene, or alcohol in contact with paint or plastic accessories (lights cover, accessories wheel covers, etc.)
Tips on preventing corrosion
Important: several times during the winter and at the end of each winter, wash the vehicle under pressure below the wing, to eliminate the different products (salt, sand, etc.) spread on roads during each winter and that have accumulated under the vehicle. Their removal will allow you to get a better conservation of your vehicle by preventing corrosion.
* Make sure the drain holes in the bottom of the doors, rear spoiler, tailgate, sills and chassis are not blocked.
* Repair the places where protection sealant is peeling.
* As soon as possible repair the chipped paint, scratches and cracks in the base layer caused by stones or gravel.
Cleaning:
Seating and Trim: we have selected special products for maintenance of upholstery cloth or imitation [leather] you find in our Renault shop.
Seat belts: they must be kept clean. Detergents or dyes are to be avoided (risk of damage). Use products selected by our Technical Department (Renault shop) or default, use warm soapy water with sponge and dry with a dry cloth.
Advice
Before passing under brush gantry washing , be sure to secure with tape , the wiper blades projectors , as well as the radio antenna. After washing, it is advisable to lubricate the locks. We have approved a product to be sprayed.
Just ask your Renault Agent.
