(10 km/h) and over.
The door can be unlocked:
–
by opening a front door (vehicle sta-
tionary).

If you decide to keep the
doors locked when you are
driving, remember that it
may be more difficult for those as -
sisting you to gain access to the
passenger compartment in the
event of an emergency.
Operating faults
If you notice an operating fault (auto -
matic locking impossible), first check
that all doors are correctly locked. If
they are correctly locked and the fault
is still present, contact an approved
Dealer.
Also make sure that locking has not
been inadvertently deactivated.
If it has, switch the ignition off and on
again and reactivate it.

This prevents the vehicle from being
started by anyone not in possession
of the vehicle’s renaULT card.
The vehicle is automatically protected
a few seconds after the engine is
switched off.
Operating principle
As soon as the system detects the card,
indicator light 1 comes on continuously
for a few seconds then goes out.
The vehicle has recognised the code
and the engine can be started. If the vehicle does not recognise the
code, indicator light 1 and card reader 2
will flash (rapid flashing), and the vehi-
cle cannot be started.

insert it in card reader 2.
If warning light 1 continues to flash or
remains continuously lit, then the card
is present but it is not recognised; this
indicates that there is an operating fault
in the system.
If the RENAULT card is faulty (card
reader and warning light 1 flashing rap-
idly), use the second RENAULT card
(supplied with the vehicle) if possible.
Call an approved dealer, who is the only
person capable of repairing the engine
