LOCKING/UNLOCKING THE DOORS (2/2)
Interior locking/unlocking
door control
Switch 4 controls the doors, tailgate
and, depending on the vehicle, the fuel
filler flap simultaneously.
If a door or the tailgate is open or not
closed properly, the doors and tailgate
lock/unlock quickly.
If transporting an object with the tail-
gate open, you can still lock the doors:
with the engine stopped, press and
hold switch 4 for more than five sec-
onds to lock the other doors.
Locking the doors without
the RENAULT card
For example, in the event of a dis-
charged battery or the RENAULT card
temporarily not working, etc.
With the engine switched off and a
door or tailgate open, press and hold
switch 4 for more than five seconds.
When the door is closed, all the doors
and the tailgate will be locked.
Unlocking the vehicle from the outside
is only possible with the RENAULT card
in the vehicle's access zone or using
the key integrated in the RENAULT
card.
Door and tailgate status
indicator
When the ignition is on, the indicator
light integrated in switch 4 informs you
of the status of the doors and tailgate:
– indicator light on, the doors and tail- gate are locked,
– indicator light off, the doors and tail- gate are unlocked.
When you lock the doors, the indicator
light remains lit and then goes out.
Never leave your vehicle
with the RENAULT card
inside.
After locking/unlocking the vehicle
or the tailgate only using the but-
tons on the RENAULT card, remote
locking and unlocking in hands-free
mode are deactivated.
To reactivate the “hands-free” mode:
restart the vehicle.
4
Driver’s responsibility
If you decide to keep the
doors locked when you are
driving, remember that it
may be more difficult for those as-
sisting you to gain access to the
passenger compartment in the
event of an emergency.

CHILD SAFETY: General information (1/2)
Carrying children
Children, and adults, must be correctly
seated and strapped in for all journeys.
The children being carried in your vehi-
cle are your responsibility.
A child is not a miniature adult. Children
are at risk of specific injuries as their
muscles and bones have not yet fin-
ished growing. The seat belt alone
would not provide suitable protection.
Use an approved child seat and ensure
you use it correctly.
A collision at 30 mph (50
km/h) is the same as fall-
ing a distance of 10 metres.
Transporting a child without
a restraint is the equivalent of allow-
ing him or her to play on a fourth-
floor balcony without railings.
Never travel with a child held in your
arms. In the event of an accident,
you will not be able to keep hold of
the child, even if you yourself are
wearing a seat belt.
If your vehicle has been involved in
a road accident, replace the child
seat and have the seat belts and
ISOFIX anchorage points checked.
To prevent the doors being
opened, use the “Child
safety” device (refer to the
information on “Opening
and closing the doors” in Section 1).
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone on your vehicle, even for
a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves
or to others by starting the engine,
activating equipment such as the
electric windows or by locking the
doors.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
