the RENAULT card, when it is in access 
zone 1.
Do not store the RENAULT card

tact with other electronic equipment 
(computer, PDA, phone, etc.) as this

mode;
–  the RENAULT card in remote con-
trol mode.

electric windows or locking the 
doors.

please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.

doors and tailgate closed, move away 
from the vehicle: it will lock automati-
cally once you have left zone  1.

locks depends on the surroundings. The hazard warning lights 
flash twice 
and a beep sounds to indicate that the 
doors have locked.
The beep may be switched off. Please 
contact an authorised dealer.
If a door or the tailgate is open or not 
properly shut, or a card is in the passen-
ger compartment (or the card reader) 
the vehicle will not lock. In this situa-
tion,  no beep sounds and the hazard 
warning lights do not flash.

ing them.

ment of a handle will unlock the vehicle.

old value) will tell you that the card is no 
longer in the vehicle. This avoids you 
driving away after having dropped off a 
passenger who has the card, for exam-
ple.
