RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL(continued)
Interference
Interference may be caused to the
operation of the remote control by
factors in the immediate vicinity
(external installations or the use of
equipment operating on the same
frequency as the remote control).If you lose your keys or need
another set of keys (or a remote
control),contact your Renault
Dealer.
• If a key is replaced, it will be
necessary to take the vehicle to
your Renault Dealer because
both the vehicle and all the keys
are needed to initialise the
system.
•No more than four keys
(including the remote controls)
canbeusedononevehicle.
If the plip remote control will not
operate:
•Make sure that the batteries are
always in good condition - they
last for approximately two years.
• Check that the remote control is
correctly synchronised.
In both cases refer to the
information on the remote control
batteries in section 5.

BODYWORK MAINTENANCE(continued)
What you should do
•Wash your car frequently,
preferably using our
recommended cleaning products
and use a high-pressure jet to
rinse off the underside of the car
and the wheel arches in particular
to get rid of:
- Spots of tree resin and industrial
grime.
-Bird droppingswhich contain
chemical products which
rapidly discolour paintwork
and may even cause the paint to
peel off:the vehicle must be
washed immediately to remove
thesemarkssinceitis
impossible to remove them by
polishing.
- Salt deposited in the wheel
arches and underneath the body
after driving in areas where the
roads are chemically treated.
- Mud in the wheel arches and
under the body which forms
damp patches.• Keep well away from the vehicle
in front when driving on freshly
laid surfaces to prevent paint
damage.
• Repair, or have repaired quickly
patches where the paint has been
damaged to prevent corrosion
spreading.
• If your vehicle is protected by the
Renault anti-corrosion warranty,
remember to visit the body shop
periodically. Consult the
anti-corrosion booklet.
• Respect local regulations about
washing vehicles (e.g. do not
wash your vehicle on a public
highway).• Check the fixing of external
accessories, additional driving
lights, exterior rear view mirrors,
etc. and attach the windscreen
wiper arms and radio aerial with
adhesive tape before entering a
revolving brush type car wash.
If your vehicle has a car phone,
remove the aerial.
• If mechanical components have
to be cleaned, their protection
must be reapplied by spraying on
products approved by Renault’s
Technical Department.
We have selected special
products to care for your vehicle
and you can obtain these from
Renault accessory outlets.
