1.3 SUB-FUNCTION: STARTING
The UCH manages the control section of the starting sub-function. For this function to operate normally, the
protection function must proceed correctly (immobiliser inactive ET046 Immobiliser).
In order to control the starter motor, the UCH requires the following status and parameter information to check that
the starting conditions have been met:
–Start button ET070 Start button.
–Clutch pedal position ET048 Clutch pedal position.
–Brake pedal position ET047 Brake pedal position.
–Automatic gearbox selector lever position ET108 Automatic gearbox selector lever position.
–Position of the manual gearbox selector lever (see 87G, Engine compartment connection unit, Conformity
check).
If the starting conditions are met, the request for the Protection and Switching Unit to activate the starter motor can
be viewed using status ET110 UCH request to injection or Protection and Switching Unit.
1.4 Main COMPONENTS of the ACCESS/SAFETY function
1.4.1 Main components of the ACCESS sub-function:
–Renault card,
–UCH,
–optical presence sensors located in the door handles,
–access aerials integrated in the door handles and the tailgate,
–the locking switches incorporated in the door handles,
–the boot-only opening/locking switch built into the boot badge,
–opening element locking motors.
1.4.1.1 The Renault card:
The Renault card has three buttons which allow:
–locking of the vehicle,
–unlocking of the vehicle,
–the boot to be locked/unlocked.
The Renault hands-free card allows hands-free operation if it is located in the access and starting zones.
The Renault card is powered by a 3 V battery. This battery is required for operation in hands-free mode or remote
control mode (card button presses).
If the battery is old or in an area of frequency interference, the emergency insert located in the Renault card allows
the driver's door to be unlocked.

1.4.3 Main components of the STARTING sub-function:
The starting sub-function is based on the following main factors:
–The starting conditions being present.
–Passenger Compartment Control Unit (UCH).
–The automatic gearbox computer (if fitted on the vehicle).
–The Protection and Switching Unit.
1.4.3.1 Start button:
The start button transmits the driver's requests to start or stop the engine to the UCH.
1.4.3.2 The UCH:
The UCH ensures that the starting conditions are met, and that no other computer on the multiplex network is
inhibiting starting of the vehicle.
If the conditions are met, it requests control of the starter from the UPC.
1.4.3.3 The Protection and Switching Unit (UPC):
The Protection and Switching Unit activates the starter motor following a request from the UCH via the multiplex
network.
1.4.3.4 Neutral sensor (manual gearbox):
Informs the UCH of the position of the gearbox (neutral or gear engaged).
1.4.3.5 Clutch switch (manual gearbox):
Sends clutch pedal depressed signal (end of travel) to the UCH.
1.4.3.6 Brake switch:
Sends brake pedal depressed signal to the UCH.
Operation:
The unknown status does not automatically require the brake pedal to be replaced, because it is a temporary
operating status between released pedal status and depressed pedal status (see diagram above).
