ENVIRONMENT
Your vehicle has been designed with
the aim of caring for the environment.
Recycling:
Make your contribution towards pro-
tection of the environment too.
RENAULT has used all its expertise to
reduce environmental impact through-
out the service life of your vehicle as
much as possible.
– Worn parts replaced in the course of
routine vehicle maintenance (vehi-
cle battery, oil filter, air filter, batter-
ies, etc.) and oil containers (empty or
filled with used oil) must be disposed
of through specialist organisations.
Manufacture:
Your vehicle was manufactured by
RENAULT in a factory which complies
with the strictest environmental stand-
ards.
This vehicle is more than 95% recycla-
ble. To facilitate recycling, the choice
of materials, and the ease with which
fluids can be extracted and parts re-
moved, have all been carefully consid-
ered.
Furthermore, RENAULT has imple-
mented a system for checking all the
vehicle components.
– At the end of the vehicle’s service
life, it should be sent to approved
centres to ensure that it is recycled.
The vehicle contains many parts made
of recycled plastics or renewable ma-
terials (wood, cotton, natural rubber,
etc.).
– In all cases, comply with local legis-
lation.
Emissions:
Your vehicle is equipped with a parti-
cle filter system including a catalytic
converter, an oxygen sensor and
an active carbon filter (the latter pre-
vents vapour from the fuel tank being
released into the open air).
For certain diesel vehicles, this system
also has a particle filter to reduce the
volume of soot particles emitted.
