• The Remote Control Key transmits radio
waves that can adversely affect medical elec-
tric equipment.
• If you have
apacemaker, you should contact
the medical equipment manufacturer to ask if
it will be affected by the Remote Control Key
signal.
Your vehicle can only be driven with the Remote
Control Keys which are registered to your vehicle’s
Remote Control Key system components and Anti-
Theft System (ATS*) components. As many as 4
Remote Control Keys can be registered and used
with one vehicle. The new keys must be registered
by an approved dealer or qualified workshop prior
to use with the Remote Control Key system and
ATS of your vehicle. Since the registration process
requires erasing all memory in the Remote Control
Key system components when registering new keys,
be sure to take all Remote Control Keys that you
have to an approved dealer or qualified workshop.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments 3-3

The Remote Control Key is always communicating
with the vehicle as it receives radio waves. The Re-
mote Control Key system transmits weak radio
waves. Environmental conditions may interfere with
the operation of the Remote Control Key system
under the following operating conditions.
• When operating near
alocation where strong
radio waves are transmitted, such as aTVtower,
power station and broadcasting station.
• When in possession of wireless equipment, such
as am obile telephone, transceiver, and CB ra-
dio.
• When the Remote Control Key is in contact with
or covered by metallic materials.
• When any type of radio wave remote control is
used nearby.
• When the Remote Control Key is placed near an
electric appliance such as
apersonal computer.
In such cases, correct the operating conditions be-
fore using the Remote Control Key function or use
the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies depending on
the operating conditions, the battery’s life is approxi-
mately 2years. If the battery is discharged, replace
it with anew one.
For information regarding replacement of abattery,
see “Remote Control Key battery replacement” in
the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.
Since the Remote Control Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is left near equipment which transmits strong radio waves, such as signals
from
aTVa nd personal computer, the battery life
may become shorter.
Because the steering wheel is locked electrically,
unlocking the steering wheel with the ignition switch
in the LOCK position is impossible when the vehicle
battery is completely discharged. Pay special atten-
tion that the vehicle battery is not completely dis-
charged.
As many as 4Remote Control Keys can be regis-
tered and used with one vehicle. For information
about the purchase and use of additional Remote
Control Keys, contact an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
CAUTION
• Do not allow the Remote Control Key, which
contains electrical components, to come into
contact with water or salt water. This could
affect the system function.
• Do not drop the Remote Control Key.
• Do not strike the Remote Control Key sharply
against another object.
• Do not change or modify the Remote Control
Key.
• Wetting may damage the Remote Control Key.
If the Remote Control Key gets wet, immedi-
ately wipe until it is completely dry.
• If the outside temperature is below −10°C
(14°F), the battery of the Remote Control Key
may not function properly. •
Do not place the Remote Control Key for an
extended period in an area where tempera-
tures exceed 60°C (140°F).
• Do not attach the Remote Control Key to a
key holder that contains
amagnet.
• Do not place the Remote Control Key near
equipment that produces
amagnetic field,
such as aTV, audio equipment and personal
computers.
If an Remote Control Key is lost or stolen, RENAULT
recommends erasing the ID code of that Remote
Control Key from the vehicle. This may prevent the
unauthorised use of the Remote Control Key to op-
erate the vehicle. For information regarding the eras-
ing procedure, contact an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
The Remote Control Key function can be disabled.
For information about disabling the Remote Control
Key function, contact an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
