OPERATING FAULTS (continued)

On the open road CAUSES REMEDIAL ACTION

• Steering becomes heavy. Belt broken. Have the belt replaced.

Insufficient oil in pump. Top up the power assisted steering

fluid level (refer to Section 4 "Power

assisted steering pump").

If the fault is still present, contact a

RENAULT Dealer.

• The engine overheats. The coolant

temperature warning light comes on

(or the indicator needle is in the red

area).

Coolant pump: belt stretched or

broken.

Engine cooling fan not working.

Stop the vehicle and switch off the

engine. Contact a RENAULT Dealer.

Coolant leaks. Check the condition of hoses and

clips.

Check the expansion bottle: it should

contain coolant. If it does not, top it

up (once it has cooled). Take care not

to scald yourself. This action is only

temporary: contact your RENAULT

Dealer as soon as possible.

Radiator: never fill a hot radiator with cold coolant if a considerable quantity has been lost. After any operation

on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling system, it must be refilled with a new

mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved by RENAULT's Technical

Department may be used for this purpose.
