10A- 4 ENGINE AND LOWER ENGINE ASSEMBLY Engine: Precautions for repair 10A I - SAFETY General information All information contained in these manuals is intended exclusively for automotive industry professionals. The documentation is intended to cover all vehicles in the RENAULT range throughout the world, but may not cover equipment designed for use in specific countries. The methods and fault finding procedures recommen- ded and described in this manual have been designed by automotive industry repair professionals. a - General recommendations Observe basic principles of vehicle repair. The quality of repair depends first and foremost on the care exercised by the person in carrying it out. To ensure good repair: - use recommended professional products and original Renault parts, - observe the tightening torques, - replace the recommended roll pins, nuts or bolts, after each removal, - clean and degrease the sections to be bonded, to en- sure they bond correctly. The design quality of our vehicles demands that no- thing is left to chance in making a good repair, and it is essential to refit parts or components exactly as they were originally (for instance: heat shields, wiring rou- ting, pipe routing). Use professional products and apply them with care, for example do not apply too much sealant to the joint face. b - Special tooling - ease of use The repair procedures have been designed using spe- cial tools; they must therefore be carried out using the- se tools to ensure a high degree of working safety and quality of repair. The equipment we have approved has undergone ca- reful research and testing, and must be used and main- tained with care. c - Reliability - updating Since component specifications are subject to change during their commercial life, it is essential to check whether there are any Technical Note updates when seeking information. d - Safety Certain devices and parts must be handled with parti- cular attention to safety and cleanliness and, above all, with due care. The safety symbol used in this manual indicates that special attention must be paid to the procedure or the tightening torque values. Working safely: - use appropriate tools which are in good condition (using « multipurpose » tools, such as adjustable pliers, should be avoided wherever possible), - adopt a correct posture and technique when perfor- ming heavy work or lifting loads, - check that the working area is clean and tidy during the operation, - use personal protection (gloves, safety goggles, work shoes, masks, skin barrier creams, etc.), - always follow the safety instructions associated with the operation to be performed, - do not smoke when working on vehicles, - do not use toxic products in unventilated rooms, - do not ingest any chemicals (brake fluid, coolant, etc.). Respecting the environment: - sort waste according to its particular qualities, - do not burn waste products (tyres, etc.). e - Conclusion The procedures contained in this document merit your attention. Please read them carefully in order to reduce the risk of injury, and avoid using incorrect procedures that could damage the vehicle or make it dangerous to use. Following the recommended procedures will help you to provide a quality of service which will ensure the ve- hicles achieve the highest levels of performance and reliability.

10A- 5 ENGINE AND LOWER ENGINE ASSEMBLY Engine: Precautions for repair 10A Maintenance and repair operations must be carried out under the proper conditions to ensure that our vehicles run safely and reliably. II - CLEANLINESS Risks relating to contamination The high-pressure direct injection system is highly sen- sitive to contamination. The risks caused by contami- nation are: - damage to or destruction of the high-pressure injec- tion system, - a component seizing, - a component not being properly sealed. All After-Sales operations must be performed under very clean conditions. Having carried out an operation in good conditions means that no impurities (particles a few microns in size) have penetrated the system during dismantling. The cleanliness principle must be applied from the filter to the injectors. What are the sources of contamination? - metal or plastic chips, - paint, - fibres: • cardboard, • brushes, • paper, • clothing, • cloth, - foreign bodies such as hair, - ambient atmosphere, - etc. a - Cleaning cloths Use lint free cleaning cloths (part number 77 11 211 707 ). The use of rags or ordinary paper towels is prohibited: these produce lint and lose fibres, which then contami- nate the fuel circuit. Each cloth must only be used once. b - Blanking plugs The blanking plugs are used to cap the fuel circuit once it is opened and to therefore prevent contaminants from entering. A set of blanking plugs should be used once only and used plugs must be discarded after use: once used, the plugs are soiled and cleaning them is not sufficient to make them reusable. Unused plugs must also be discarded and not used again for any other operation on an injection system. Blanking plug kit part number: - K9K ( DELPHI injection): 77 01 206 804 - K9K ( SIEMENS injection): 77 01 476 857 c - Protective bags Use hermetically resealable plastic bags, using adhesi- ve tape, for example, to store components which will be refitted and reused. Stored parts will therefore be less subject to the risk of contamination. These bags must be used once only: once they have been used, they are to be discarded. d - Cleaning products Two cleaning products can be used: - an aerosol spray brake cleaner (part number 77 11 226 128 ). - an injector cleaner (part number 77 11 224 188 ), To use the injector cleaner, be sure to have a clean brush in good condition (the brush must not lose any bristles) as well as a clean container which has no im- purities in it. WARNING Cleaning the engine using a high-pressure washer is prohibited because of the risk of damaging con- nections. In addition, moisture may collect in the connectors and create electrical connection faults. Note: Use a new injector cleaner each time work is car- ried out (a used cleaning agent will contain impuri- ties).
10A- 6 ENGINE AND LOWER ENGINE ASSEMBLY Engine: Precautions for repair 10A III - GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS 1 - Advice to be followed before any operation 1) Carry out the work in a clean working area and take care to protect removed components from dust using plastic bags which are hermetically resealable, for example. 2) Always order the following from the Parts Depart- ment before carrying out work: - a new blanking plug kit ; these are specific to the engine - a sufficient number of lint free cleaning cloths . - one of the two cleaning products for fuel pipe unions, - the parts always to be replaced after each removal operation mentioned in the operational procedures specific to the vehicle. 3) Wear safety goggles fitted with side shields to pre- vent the cleaning product from splashing the eyes. 4) Wear latex safety gloves to avoid prolonged contact with the skin. 5) Before any operation on the injection system, using plastic bags or clean cloths, protect: - the accessories and timing belts, - the electrical accessories (starter, alternator, power- assisted steering pump, sensors and electrical con- nectors), - the flywheel face. 2 - Instructions to be followed during the operation Wash your hands before and while carrying out the work. Change the latex safety gloves if they become soiled or damaged. All components removed from the injection system must be stored in a hermetically sealed plastic bag once they have been capped. Reseal the bag hermetically using adhesive tape, for example, even if the bag must be opened shortly afte- rwards: ambient air can be a source of pollution. After opening the fuel circuit, the use of brushes, clea- ning agents, air blow guns, rifle-type brushes or stan- dard cloths is strictly prohibited: These items are likely to allow impurities to enter the system. When replacing a component with a new one or when refitting it after storing it in a plastic bag, do not unpack it until it is time to fit it on the vehicle. 3 - Cleaning There are currently two procedures for cleaning the fuel circuit before opening it in order to carry out work in the workshop. These procedures enable the fuel circuit to be cleaned to prevent contamination from entering: they both have the same end result and neither is preferred over the other. a - Using the injector cleaning agent Clear the access to the unions that need opening, fol- lowing the work procedures specific to the vehicle (see the relevant Workshop Repair Manual). Protect sections which are sensitive to fuel leaks. Pour the injector cleaning agent into a container which is free from impurities. Dip a clean brush, which is not shedding bristles, into the container of injector cleaning agent. Clean the unions carefully using the brush and the in- jector cleaning agent. Blast the components that have been cleaned with compressed air (tools, workbench, and also parts, unions and around the injection system). Make sure there are no brush bristles remaining and that the area is clean. Wipe the sections that were cleaned with fresh clea- ning cloths. Open the circuit at the unions and immediately fit the relevant blanking plugs. Note: If wearing leather protective gloves, cover these with latex gloves. IMPORTANT Wear latex safety gloves when using the cleaning agent. IMPORTANT Wear safety goggles fitted with side shields during this operation.

Protect sections which are sensitive to fuel leaks. Spray the brake cleaning agent onto the unions to be opened. Clean the unions carefully using fresh cleaning cloths. Blast the components that have been cleaned with compressed air (tools, workbench, and also parts, unions and around the injection system). Make sure there are no brush bristles remaining and that the area is clean. Open the circuit at the unions and immediately fit the relevant blanking plugs. WARNING Do not blast with compressed air once the fuel cir- cuit is open, otherwise impurities may enter the sys- tem. Use cleaning cloths only, if necessary.
