Battery life
RENAULT cards are powered by a
battery which must be replaced when
battery tell-tale light 4 no longer lights
up (refer to the information on the
“RENAULT card: battery" in Section 5).
s pecial note: for some vehicles, the
RENAULT card records the settings se-
lected by the card user: the choice of
settings for the automatic climate con -
trol, some radios, electric seats (if this
is stored), the rear view mirror position-
ing, etc. It is therefore advisable always
to keep the same RENAULT card so
that you can recall your personal set -
tings.
