Renault Clio (2017 year). Instruction

5.14

Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure

loss warning system
If under-inflated (puncture, low pres-

sure, etc.), the warning light



the instrument panel comes on. See

“Tyre pressure loss warning” in

Section 2.

Pressures should be checked when the

tyres are cold; ignore higher pressures

which may be reached in hot weather

or following a fast journey.
If tyre pressures cannot be checked

when the tyres are cold, assume an in-

crease of 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.

TYRES

(2/3)

Please be aware that a

poorly tightened or miss-

ing valve cap can make the

tyres less airtight and lead

to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to

those fitted originally and tighten

them fully.

Incorrect tyre pressures

lead to abnormal tyre wear

and unusually hot running.

These are factors which

may seriously affect safety and lead

to:
– poor road holding,
– risk of bursting or tread separa-

tion.

The pressure depends on the load

and the speed of use. Adjust the

pressure according to the condi-

tions of use (refer to the label affixed

to the edge of the driver’s door).

Tyre pressures

Adhere to the tyre pressures (including

the emergency spare wheel). The tyre

pressures should be checked at least

once a month and additionally before

any long journey (refer to the label af-

fixed to the edge of the driver’s door).

5.15

Emergency spare wheel

Refer to the information on the

“Emergency spare wheel” and in-

structions on “Changing a wheel” in

Section 5.

Changing wheels around

This practice is not recommended.

Fitting new tyres

TYRES

(3/3)

Snow or Winter tyres
We would recommend that these be

fitted to all four wheels to ensure that

your vehicle retains maximum adhe-

sion.
Warning: These tyres sometimes have

a specific direction of rotation and a

maximum speed index which may be

lower than the maximum speed of your

vehicle.
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only be

used for a limited period and as laid

down by local legislation. It is neces-

sary to observe the speed specified by

current legislation.
These tyres must, at a minimum, be

fitted to the two front wheels.

Chains may only be fitted

to tyres of the same size

as those originally fitted to

your vehicle.

In all cases, we would recommend

that you contact an approved dealer

who will be able to advise you on

the choice of equipment which is

most suitable for your vehicle.

18” wheels cannot be

fitted with chains.
If you wish to fit snow

chains, you must use spe-

cial equipment.
Consult an approved Dealer.

Use in winter

Chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow

chains to the rear axle is strictly for-

bidden.
Chains cannot be fitted to tyres which

are larger than those originally fitted to

the vehicle.

For safety reasons, this op-

eration must be carried out

by a specialist.
Fitting different tyres may

change your vehicle as follows:
– it may mean that your vehicle no

longer conforms to current regu-

lations;

– it may change the way it handles

when cornering;

– it may cause the steering to be

heavy;

– it may affect the use of snow

chains.

FUSES

(1/5)

Fuses in engine compartment B

Some functions are protected by fuses

located in the engine compartment

(unit B).

However, because of their reduced

accessibility, we advise you to have

your fuses replaced by an approved

Dealer.

To comply with current legislation, or

as a precaution, you can obtain an

emergency kit from your approved

dealer containing a set of spare

bulbs and fuses.

Check the fuse in question and replace it, if necessary, by a fuse of the

same rating.
If a fuse is fitted with too high a rating, it may cause the electrical circuit

to overheat (risk of fire) in the event of an item of equipment using an ex-

cessive amount of current.
