ELECTRIC VEHICLE: introduction (2/5)
Electric vehicles have special features,
but operate in a similar manner to con-
ventional vehicles.
The main difference in electric vehicles
is the exclusive use of electric energy
instead of fuel, as used in convention
vehicles.
We therefore recommend that you read
these instructions describing your elec-
tric vehicle carefully.
Connected services(depending on vehicle)
Your electric vehicle has connected
services that provide information and/
or control:
– your vehicle’s charging status;
– the traction battery charging pro-gramming, based on certain choices
on offer;
– air-conditioning remote program- ming (please see the information on
“Air-conditioning: remote activation”
in Section 3);
– ...
You can subscribe to a connected
service or extend it at any time by
consulting an authorised dealer.

LOCKING, UNLOCKING THE DOORS (1/2)
Locking/Unlocking the doors
from the outside
This is done using the RENAULT Card;

Section 1.
In certain cases, the RENAULT card
may not work:
– the card battery RENAULT is drained, flat 12 V battery, etc.
– if equipment operating on the same frequency as the card (mobile
phones, etc.) is used;
– vehicle located in a high electromag- netic radiation zone.
It is then possible:
– to use the key integrated into the card to unlock the front left-hand
door;
– to lock each of the doors manually;

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/4)
Warnings concerning the driver’s airbag
– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
– The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel f\
rom our Network).
– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your \
arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting
your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.
Warnings concerning the passenger airbag
– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder\
, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the airbag.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umb\
rella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as t\
here is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knee\
s, hands, head, etc.).
– The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be react\
ivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.
A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE ADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.
(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating \
the front passenger airbag" in Section 1)
Warnings concerning the anti-submarining airbag
Do not let a child under the age of 12 sit in this seat. When triggered,\
the anti-submarining airbag may project objects left o n
the seat base with a great deal of force.
Risk of serious injury.
All of the warnings below are given so that the airbag is not obstructed in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent
the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when\
it inflates.
