are open.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position.
3. Carry the integrated key fob or the Remote Con- trol Key with you and get out of the vehicle.

Control Key, door handle request switch (where
fitted), power door lock switch or mechanical
key.

30 seconds and then blinks. The system is now
activated. If, during this 30 second time period,
the door is unlocked or the ignition switch is

tion. When pushing the ignition switch to the ACC
or ON position, the system will be released.

mately 30 seconds. However, the alarm reacti-
vates if the vehicle is tampered with again.

ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (ATS)
The Anti-Theft System (ATS) will not allow the en-
gine to start without the use of the registered ATS
key.
If the engine does not start using the registered ATS
key, it may be due to interference caused by:
• Another ATS key.
• Automated toll road device.
• Automated payment device.
• Other devices that transmit similar signals. Start the engine using the following procedure:
1. Remove any items that may be causing the inter-
ference away from the ATS key.
2. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for approximately 5seconds.
3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately 10 seconds.
4. Repeat steps 2and 3again.
5. Start the engine.
6. Repeat the steps above until all possible interfer- ences are eliminated.
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
RENAULT recommends placing the registered ATS
key separate from other devices to avoid interfer-
ence.
If ATS is malfunctioning, this light will remain on
while the ignition switch is in the ON position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine does
not start, contact an approved dealer or qualified
workshop for ATS service as soon as possible.
Be sure to bring all Remote Control Keys that you
have when visiting an approved dealer for ser-
vice.
