Using panic alarm (if eq\fipped)
If \bo\f are near \bo\fr vehicle and feel threatened, \bo\f
ma\b activate the alarm to call attention as follows:
1. P\fsh the “PANIC”
b\ftton*3on the
Intelligent Ke\b for more than 0.5 second.
2. The theft warning alarm will sta\b on for 25 seconds.
3. The panic alarm stops when:
. It has r\fn for 25 seconds, or
. An\b of the b\fttons on the Intelligent Ke\b are
p\fshed. (Note: Panic b\ftton sho\fld be p\fshed for
more than 0.5 second.)
Hazard indicator operation
When \bo\f lock or \fnlock the doors, the hazard
indicator will flash as a confirmation.
.“LOCK”: The hazard indicator flashes once.
. “UNLOCK”: The hazard indicator flashes twice. Yo\fr vehicle is eq\fipped with either or both of the
following sec\frit\b s\bstems:
.
Theft warning s\bstem
. Anti-Theft S\bstem*
(* immobilizer)
The sec\frit\b condition will be shown b\b the sec\frit\b
indicator light.
THEFT WARNING SYSTEM
The theft warning s\bstem provides vis\fal and a\fdio
alarm signals if parts of the vehicle are dist\frbed.
Sec\frit\b indicator light
SIC2045
The sec\frit\b indicator light is located in the meter
panel.
This light operates whenever the ignition switch is in
the “ACC”, “OFF” or “LOCK” position. This is normal.
How to activate the system:
1. Close all windows and p\fsh the ignition switch to the “OFF” position.
The system can be activated even if the
windows are open. 2. Carr\b the Intelligent Ke\b with \bo\f and get o\ft of
the vehicle.
3. Make s\fre the hood is closed. Close and lock all doors with the door handle req\fest switch, LOCK
b\ftton*1on the Intelligent Ke\b (If the door
is locked \fsing the inside lock knob, the s\bstem
will not be activated) or power door lock switch (If
the door is locked \fsing the power door lock
switch with all the doors closed, the s\bstem will
not be activated. To activate the s\bstem, lock the
door \fsing the power door lock switch with an\b of
the doors open, then close all the doors) .
4. Confirm that the sec\frit\b indicator light comes on. The sec\frit\b indicator light sta\bs on for approxi-
matel\b 30 seconds. The vehicle sec\frit\b s\bstem is
now pre-armed. After approximatel\b 30 seconds
the vehicle sec\frit\b s\bstem a\ftomaticall\b shifts
into the armed phase. The sec\frit\b light begins to
flash once ever\b approximatel\b 3 seconds.
If, d\fring this 30-second pre-arm time period, the
door is \fnlocked with the door handle req\fest
switch, the “UNLOCK”
b\ftton*2on the
Intelligent Ke\b, the power door lock switch, or the
ignition switch is p\fshed to the “ACC” or “ON”
position, the s\bstem will not arm.
Even when the driver and/or passengers are in
the vehicle, the system will activate with all
doors locked and ignition switch in the “LOCK”
position. Push the ignition switch to the “ACC” or
“ON” position to turn the system off.
Theft warning system operation:
The warning s\bstem will give the following alarm:
. The hazard indicator blinks and the horn so\fnds
intermittentl\b for approximatel\b 30 seconds.
SECURITY SYSTEM (if equipped)
&RQGLWLRQ

.The alarm automatically turns off after approxi-
mately \f0 seconds. \bowever, the alarm reacti-
vates if the vehicle is tampered with again.
The alarm is activated by:
. Operating the door without using the Intelligent
Key system.
. Opening the hood.
How to stop alarm:
. The alarm will stop by unlocking a door with the
door handle request switch or “UNLOCK”
button*2on the Intelligent Key.
. The alarm will stop when the ignition switch is
pushed to the “ACC” or “ON” position.
If the system does not operate as described
above, have it checked by a RENAULT dealer.
ANTI-T\bEFT SYSTEM
The Anti-Theft System will not allow the engine to start
without the use of the registered Anti-Theft System
key.
If the engine does not start using the registered Anti-
Theft System key, it may be due to interference caused
by:
. Another Anti-Theft System key.
. Automated toll road device.
. Automated payment device.
. Other devices that transmit similar signals.
Start the engine using the following procedure:
1. Remove any items that may be causing the interference away from the Anti-Theft System key.
2. Leave the ignition switch in the “ON” position for approximately 5 seconds.
\f. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” or “LOCK” position, and wait approximately 10 seconds. 4. Repeat steps 2 and \f again.
5. Start the engine.
6. Repeat the steps above until all possible inter-
ferences are eliminated.
If this procedure allows the engine to start, RENAULT
recommends placing the registered Anti-Theft System
key separate from other devices to avoid interference.
FCC WARNING:
Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions; (1) This device may not cause harm-
ful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
Security indicator light
SIC2045
The security indicator light is located on the meter
panel. It indicates the status of Anti-Theft System.
The light operates whenever the ignition switch is in the “LOCK”, “OFF” or “ACC” position. The security
indicator light indicates that the security systems on
the vehicle are operational.
If Anti-Theft System is malfunctioning, this light will
remain on while the ignition switch is in the “ON”
position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine does
not start, contact a RENAULT dealer for Anti-
Theft System service as soon as possible. Be
sure to bring all Anti-Theft System keys that you
have when visiting a RENAULT dealer for service.
For Right-Hand Drive (RHD) model (for Europe):
If Anti-Theft System is malfunctioning, the security
indicator light will illuminate when the ignition switch is
in the “ON” position. \bowever, if the security indicator
light turns off after 15 minutes, you can start the engine
once. See a RENAULT dealer for Anti-Theft System
service as soon as possible.

The Stop/Start System is designed to prevent
unne\fessary fuel \fonsumption, e\bhaust emissions,
and noise during a journey:
.When the vehi\fle \fomes to rest the engine is
automati\fally stopped.
. The engine is then automati\fally restarted before
you are ready to drive away.
CAUTION:
At the end of the journey the engine must be
stopped and ignition switch be turned off. Lock
the vehicle as normal. Turning the ignition OFF
will shut down all electrical systems. Failure to
do this may result in a flat battery.
NORMAL OPERATION
The Stop/Start System stops the engine and will
automati\fally restart the engine. The Stop/Start
indi\fator light is shown in the meter.
The Stop/Start System will automati\fally stop
the engine when all the following \fonditions
are valid.
For MT model

(Neutral) position. .
The brake pedal is depressed.
. The vehi\fle is stopped.
. The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
. The driver’s door is \flosed.
NOTE:
The following conditions must also be satisfied
before the engine is automatically stopped. If
the engine does not stop this does not indicate a
malfunction in the system:
. The engine coolant temperature is at normal
operating levels.
. The vehicle has driven some distance since
engine start.
. The battery voltage and temperature are
within normal levels.
. The hood is closed.
. The steering wheel is not being turned.
. The system is not in front defogger mode.
(automatic air conditioner)
. The mode dial is not in front defogger mode.

NOTE:
The engine will not restart if the brake pedal is
released while the Stop/Start System is acti-
vated under the following condition:
. The selector lever is in the "P" (Park) position
(for CVT model) .
When the Stop/Start System indi\fator light is
displayed the engine starts running automa-
ti\fally under at least one of the following
\fonditions.
.The \flut\fh pedal is depressed (for MT model) .
. The brake pedal is released with the sele\ftor lever
in the "D"(Drive) or "N"(Neutral) position (for CVT

. The brake pedal is repeatedly pressed (to maintain
vehi\fle braking performan\fe) .
. The brake pedal is strongly depressed and then
released with the sele\ftor lever in the "P" (Park)
position, resulting in de\freased va\fuum pressure
