KEYS / RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL
1Remote control coded ignition
key, key for doors and fuel filler
cap.The plip remote control1locks and
unlocks the doors.
It is supplied with power by a
battery which has to be replaced
when the battery tell-tale light2no
longer comes on. (Refer to the
information on the radio frequency
remote control batteries.)
If there is a child (or
animal) in the car, never
leave it unattended with
the key in the ignition.
With the key in the ignition it
would be possible to operate
electrical equipment such as the
window risers and there is a risk
that the child may be seriously
injured (by trapping his or her
neck, arm, hand, etc.).
Locking/unlocking the doors
Press the remote control for
approximately one second to lock or
unlock the doors. (Tell-tale light2
will switch on.)
- The hazard warning lights flash
twiceto indicate that the doors
have beenlocked.
Note:Depending on the vehicle, if
eitheradoorortailgateisopenor
not properly closed or if a rear
interior light remains in the
“continuous lighting” position
(see information on interior lights
in section 3), the hazard warning
lights will not flash.
- The hazard warning lights flash
onceto indicate that the doors
have beenunlocked.

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.

METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELT(continued)
Operation
The system waits a few seconds
after the ignition has been switched
on before being operational.
If a severefrontalimpact occurs,
the airbag(s) inflate(s) rapidly,
cushioning the impact of the
driver's head and chest against the
steering wheel and the front
passenger's head against the
dashboard. The airbag(s) then
deflate(s) immediately so that the
passengers are not impeded in any
way when they get out of the
vehicle.
The passenger airbag system is
linked to a front passenger airbag
deactivation warning light2on the
instrument panel. This warning
light is linked to the passenger
airbag deactivation system through
the ignition key.
It lights up to indicate that the
passenger airbag will not be inflated
in the event of an impact (refer to
the section on Deactivating the front
passenger airbag).
Operational incidents
Warning light1lights up on the
instrument panel when the ignition
is turned on and then goes out after
a few seconds.
If it does not light up when the
ignition is turned on, there is a fault
in the system.
If it lights up while you are driving,
stop at once and switch off the
ignition.If it is still lit up after the ignition
has been switched on again, there is
a fault in the system. In this case, a
rear-facing child seat MUST NOT be
fitted to the front passenger seat.
We do not recommend fitting any
other kind of passenger seat device.
In both cases, consult your
RENAULT Dealer as soon as
possible.
