RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL(continued)
The range within which the remote
control will operate
This varies according to the
environment: therefore take care
when handling the remote control
that you do not inadvertently lock
or unlock the doors.
Note:On certain vehicles, if a door
is not opened within approximately
30 seconds of unlocking the door
using the remote control, the doors
will lock again automatically.
Interference
Interference may be caused to the
operation of the remote control by
factors in the immediate vicinity
(external installations or the use of
equipment operating on the same
frequency as the remote control).If you lose your keys or need
another set of keys (or a remote
control),contact your RENAULT
Dealer.
• If a remote control unit is
replaced, it will be necessary to
take the vehicle to your
RENAULT Dealer because both
the vehicle and all the remote
control units are needed to
initialise the system.
• No more than two remote controls
can be used on one vehicle.
• Make sure that the batteries are
always in good condition - they
last for approximately two years.
