AUTOMATIC LOCKING WHEN DRIVING
Operating principleAfter the vehicle is started, the system
automatically locks the doors when you
are driving at approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h) and over.
The door can be unlocked:
– by pressing central door unlocking
switch 2.
– at a standstill, by opening a front
door from inside the vehicle.
Note: if a door is opened or closed, it
will automatically lock again when the
vehicle reaches a speed of 6 mph
(10 km/h).
Activating/deactivating the
function
To switch it on: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
switch 2 until a beep sounds.
To deactivate: with the vehicle at a
standstill and the engine running, press
switch 2 until two beeps sound.
You can also deactivate/activate the
function from the menu on the multi-
function screen 1 (refer to the informa-
tion on the “Vehicle settings customisa-
tion menu” section 1, “Auto door locking
while driving” function).
Operating faults
If you experience an operating fault (no
automatic locking, the indicator light in-
corporated in switch 2 does not light up
when trying to lock the doors and boot,
etc.), make sure that locking has not
been deactivated by mistake and check
that the doors and boot are properly
closed. If they are correctly locked and
the fault is still present, contact an au-
thorised dealer.

If fitted on the vehicle, the tailgate locks
and unlocks at the same time as the
doors.
There are four modes to manoeuvre
the tailgate:
– using the RENAULT card remote control;
– using the controls on the tailgate;
– using the dashboard control;
– using the hands-free function.
AUTOMATIC TAILGATE (1/5)
Conditions of use
– Immobilise the vehicle.
– If there is any ice or snow prevent-ing the tailgate from opening, this ice
or snow must be removed to free the
tailgate.
– In the event that the battery is dis- charged or if it is changed, the tail-
gate should be closed (manually
if necessary) to restart the tailgate
motor.
Ensure that nobody is close
to the moving parts when
opening/closing the tail-
gate.
Risk of injury.
Opening/Closing
Activating the automatic tailgate open-
ing or closing using the dashboard
control or using the card, three beeps
sound just before the tailgate begins to
move.
When opening or closing the tail-
gate, ensure that nothing interferes
with the manoeuvre.
To avoid damaging the tailgate
system, do not manually force the
tailgate to open or close while it is
moving.

1.17
Do not keep your foot in the air. Carry
out the movement without stopping.
Note: With the tailgate open, after de-
tecting a closure control, it waits around
3 seconds before triggering the closure
(a beep is emitted every second).
4
Using the dashboard control
Press and hold switch 4.
Using the hands-free function
The hands-free function grants access
to the boot or allows it to be closed
while you have your hands full.
With the RENAULT card on your person
and with the ignition off, perform a for-
wards/backwards movement with your
foot in the area delimited by the sen-
sors 5. The sensor detects the approach and
removal of your foot and triggers the
opening or closing of the tailgate.
AUTOMATIC TAILGATE (3/5)
Activation/deactivation of the
hands-free function
Using the multifunction screen, select
menu “Vehicle”, “User settings” then
“Use handsfree card: open/close”.
Select “ON” or “OFF” to activate or de-
activate the function.
Usage features of the hands-free
function
– the hands-free function is no longer available after a few days of lack of
movement of the vehicle, or after
around 15 minutes if the vehicle is
unlocked. To reactivate it, use the
unlocking button on the RENAULT
card.
– The “Hands-free” function is only available if the vehicle is stationary
and the engine is switched off (and
not on standby with the Stop and
Start function).
– The hands-free feature may not work if the vehicle is equipped with
a towbar or is in an area with high
electromagnetic radiation.

Deactivate the “Hands-free” func-
tion when you wash your vehicle by
hand. Risk of unwanted opening of
the tailgate.

1.19
AUTOMATIC TAILGATE (5/5)Operating faults
If you activate the automatic tailgate
continuously for around a minute (se-
quence of opening and closing), it will
stop in order to avoid overheating. The
operation will return to normal after
about a minute.
The automatic tailgate will not operate
if the battery is on low charge. In this
case, operate the automatic tailgate
with the engine started.
In very cold weather conditions, the au-
tomatic opening or closing may not op-
erate if the tailgate joints are frozen.
Precautions during use
Before opening/closing the tailgate,
ensure that the surrounding space is
sufficient to allow the tailgate to oper-
ate. If not, stop the tailgate movement
before contact.
The installation of accessories such as
a bicycle carrier on the tailgate will lead
to more weight on the tailgate. The tail-
gate may operate slowly or not open
fully.
If the tailgate is moving and the engine
is started, the movement will stop for a
seconds before continuing.
Avoid multiple manual stops during the
automatic tailgate movement (risk of
damaging the tailgate system).
Driver’s responsibility
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not
self-sufficient alone in your
vehicle, even for a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or locking the
doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

INJURY.
