1.1.13 Principle of automatic window relift:
When the doors are locked, and the lock button on the card is pressed twice in succession (or the door or boot if
the vehicle is fitted with hands-free function), the windows close automatically (as well as the sunroof, if fitted to
the vehicle).
The function is available on certain vehicles (see table below) depending on the number of one touch windows on
the vehicle and depending on the bodywork phases.
The automatic window relift function cannot be configured separately; it is automatically configured during special
command SC008 UCH type according to the vehicle type, number of one-touch windows and the production number
type.
1.1.14 Principle of new vehicle storage mode:
The vehicle is configured in this mode when it leaves the factory to optimise its power consumption:
–The immobiliser warning light is inhibited.
–The direction indicator warning lights are lit continuously on the instrument panel.
Before delivering the vehicle to the customer, deactivate this mode:
–By flipping down the steering column controls with the after ignition feed off.
–Or using command VP016 Deactivate new vehicle storage mode.
This function can only be activated in the factory with UCH Vdiag 4F or 50.If Then

3) The UCH decrypts the response and compares it with that stored in its memory. If the result is correct, it continues
the starting procedure. The aerials stop transmitting once the card is authenticated.
If no Renault card responds in hands-free mode, the UCH interrogates the card reader. If the Renault card is in the
card reader, authentication is via transponder.
The card reader must be used to start in hands-free mode in the following situations:
–flat card battery,
–vehicle in an area of frequency interference,
–boot open (indication on instrument panel).
The statuses and commands available on the card authentication function:
–ET035 Radio frequency signal received.
–ET070 Start button.
–ET046 Immobiliser.
–ET014 Power supply level requested.
–AC036 Internal aerial testing.
b) Authentication of the Renault card when the vehicle is not fitted with the hands-free option:
When the user presses the start button, the UCH authenticates the card in the card reader using the transponder
mode (short-range data exchange at 125 KHz). The transponder mode does not require a battery in the card.

1.2.4 Renault card check by the UCH:
a/ Card check:
When the engine is running, the UCH checks for the presence of the Renault card in the passenger compartment (if
vehicle is hands-free) or in the card-reader when a door is opened then closed. If the Renault card is not detected, a
message on the instrument panel and a buzzer warn the driver.
Command AC036 Internal aerial test is used to check the area covered by the starting aerials inside the passenger
compartment (hands-free vehicles). The card reader flashes when the card is detected.
This command allows a hands-free card to be recognised even if it does not belong to the vehicle.
b/ Low battery warning:
If the Renault card battery is faulty or flat, the change card battery message is displayed on the instrument panel
when the vehicle is started, if there have been 5 attempts to authenticate the Renault card since the battery fault.
c/ Storing information on the card:
A device allowing information relating to the vehicle to be read from the card is available.
Information available: – VIN (Vehicle Identification Number).
–Mileage.
–Fuel level.
–Mileage before oil change.
–Tyre pressure (if vehicle fitted with SSPP).
–Status of OBD warning light.
–Oil level.

The rain and light sensor is a single sensor, connected to the UCH by a single connection. This sensor is installed on
the windscreen.
The light sensor enables the side lights and dipped headlights to be operated automatically as soon as the vehicle is
in a dark place (tunnel, night, gloomy weather conditions, etc.).
The status of the light sensor can be displayed using ET115 Lights on request by light sensor, and by configuration
reading LC044 Rain/light sensor.
Configuration CF035 Rain/light sensor is available during UCH configuration SC008 UCH type (see
Configurations and programming).
To activate the automatic lighting function, press the AUTO button on the lighting stalk for at least 4 seconds. This
action is confirmed by two beeps.
To deactivate the automatic lighting function, switch the engine off and press the AUTO button on the lighting stalk
for at least 4 seconds. A beep confirms this action and the message Automatic lighting OFF appears on the
instrument panel.
Any other operation on the lighting stalk overrides and cancels automatic operation.

SYSTEM OPERATION
–The valves are activated approximately 1 minute after the vehicle has been running at a speed above 12 mph
(20 km/h).
–During driving, the valves emit signals every minute.
–The valves remain active for 15 minutes after the vehicle stops, then switch to standby mode.
–In standby mode, the valves emit signals only if they detect a pressure difference between two successive
measurements exceeding 68 mbar or if the pressure difference since last emitting exceeds 68 mbar (due to tyre
cooling).
–The tyres are considered to be cold when the vehicle speed has been zero for 1h 45 min.
–The minimum time for detection of a leak is approximately 15 minutes.
–The message Inflate tyres for motorway is displayed only if the vehicle travels at more than 102 mph (170 km/
h) (as an indication) for 3 minutes and the pressure on at least one of the tyres is 400 mbar less than the
recommended pressure at low speed. This message is inactive if the tyres are inflated to motorway pressure,
irrespective of the vehicle speed.
–Alert thresholds:
–over-inflation when cold = recommended pressure + 700 mbar,
–over-inflation when hot = recommended pressure + 850 mbar,
–under-inflation = recommended pressure - 400 mbar,
–serious under-inflation = recommended pressure - 600 mbar,
–imbalance = difference in pressure between the left-hand and right-hand wheels on the same axle greater
than 500 mbar.
–Information messages for the driver:
–Stop! Tyre puncture + STOP warning light + wheel concerned is highlighted on instrument panel display +
buzzer.
–Adjust tyre pressure + the wheel concerned is highlighted on instrument panel display.
–Inflate tyres for motorway + four wheels highlighted on instrument panel display.
–Tyre sensor fault + the wheel concerned is erased.
–Electronic fault + "Service" warning light + the four wheels concerned disappear from the instrument panel
display.
–No display of the tyre inflation pressure on the instrument panel on MEGANE II.

Fault finding - Configurations and programming
1/ GENERAL INFORMATION
The engine immobiliser protection system is controlled by a RENAULT card recognition system with random rolling
code.
A coded transponder chip (operating without a battery) independent of the remote control function is built into each
of the vehicle's RENAULT Cards.
The engine immobiliser is active a few seconds after the RENAULT Card is removed from the card reader. Its status
is shown by the flashing warning light on the instrument panel and by locking of the steering column lock.
To obtain the immobiliser code, see Technical Note 5037A, Code delivery procedure.
There are two programming methods: "Not connected" to the code server mode and "connected" to the code
server mode.
–In the "not connected" mode, the CLIP diagnostic tool supplies a programming key and the user enters the
immobiliser code.
–In the "connected" mode, the CLIP diagnostic tool automatically exchanges the programming key and the
immobiliser code.
IMPORTANT
If not all of the Renault cards are available, reallocate all Renault cards later. Cards not inserted will no longer be
allocated to this vehicle.
IMPORTANT
In "not connected" mode, once the tool has issued the programming key, the user has a limited amount of time
in which to enter the immobiliser code.
If this time expires, the CLIP diagnostic tool displays the message "Time expired. Restart the procedure.
Note:
When only the UCH is replaced, there is no operation to perform on the injection computer or the steering column
lock, they retain the same immobiliser code.
IMPORTANT
Once a part is programmed with a code, it is allocated to the vehicle; the code cannot be deleted and the part
cannot be reprogrammed with another code. The programmed code cannot be erased.
IMPORTANT
In "connected" mode, the exchange of the programming key and the entry of the immobiliser code is done
automatically.
If the connection parameters are not met, "connected" mode switches automatically to "not connected" mode.
