Renault Clio: Engine coolant

With the engine switched off and on
level ground, the level when cold must
be between the MINI and MAXI marks
on reservoir 1.
Top this level up when cold before it
reaches the MINI mark.
When working in the engine
compartment, ensure that
the windscreen wiper stalk
is in the park position.
Risk of injury. |
Frequency of checking coolant level
Check the coolant level regularly
(very severe damage is likely to be
caused to the engine if it runs out of
coolant).
If the level needs to be topped up, only
use products approved by our Technical
Department which ensure:
- protection against freezing;
- an anti-corrosion protection for the
cooling system.
Before performing any
action in the engine compartment,
the ignition must
be switched off by pressing
the engine stop button (please see
the information on “Starting, stopping
the engine” in Section 2). |
Replacement interval
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels. |
No operations should be
carried out on the cooling
circuit when the engine is
hot.
Risk of burns. |
READ NEXT:
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground.
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
Topping up
With the engine switched off, open the
cap 3. Fill until you can see the fluid,
then replace the cap.
