When the low tyre pressure warning light illuminates,
you should stop and adjust the tyre pressure of all 4
tyres to the recommended COLD tyre pressure
shown on the tyre placard located on the driver side
centre pillar see “Tyre placard” in the “9. Technical information” section. The low tyre pressure warning
light does not automatically turn off when the tyre pressure is adjusted. After the tyre is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must be driven
at speeds above 25 km/h (16 MPH) to activate the
TPMS and turn off the low tyre pressure warning light. Use atyre pressure gauge to check the tyre
pressure.
The low tyre pressure (e.g., [Low tyre pressure])
warning appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the low tyre
pressure warning light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle information
display” later in this section and “Tyre Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) (where fitted)” later in
this section.
TPMS resetting must be also performed after atyre
or aw heel is replaced, or the tyres are rotated.
Depending on achange in the outside temperature,
the low tyre pressure warning light may illuminate
even if the tyre pressure has been adjusted prop-
erly. Adjust the tyre pressure to the recommended
COLD tyre pressure again when the tyres are cold,
and reset the TPMS. If the low tyre pressure warning light still continues
to illuminate after the resetting operation, it may indi-
cate that the TPMS is not functioning properly. Have
the system checked by an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
For additional information, see “Tyre Pressure Moni-
toring System (TPMS) (where fitted)” in the “5. Start-
ing and driving” section and “Vehicle information
display” later in this section.
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tyre
pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1
minute when the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position. The light will remain on after
1minute. Have
the system checked by an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop. The low tyre pressure warning does
not appear if the low tyre pressure warning light illu-
minates to indicate aTPMS malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tyre Pressure Moni-
toring System (TPMS) (where fitted)” in the “5. Start-
ing and driving” section. WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect electric
medical equipment. Those who use apace-
maker should contact the electric medical
equipment manufacturer for the possible in-
fluences before use. •
If the light does not illuminate with the igni-
tion switch pushed ON, have the vehicle
checked by an approved dealer or qualified
workshop as soon as possible.
• If the low tyre pressure warning light illumi-
nates while driving, avoid sudden steering
manoeuvres or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle
speed, pull off the road to
asafe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driving
with under-inflated tyres may permanently
damage the tyres and increase the likelihood
of tyre failure. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury. Check the
tyre pressure for all four tyres. Adjust the tyre
pressure to the recommended COLD tyre
pressure shown on the tyre placard, located
on the driver side centre pillar, to turn the low
tyre pressure warning light off. If the light still
illuminates while driving after adjusting the
tyre pressure, atyre may be flat. If you have a
flat tyre, repair it with the emergency tyre
puncture repair kit (where fitted) or replace it
with aspare tyre (where fitted) as soon as
possible.
• After adjusting the tyre pressure, be sure to
reset the TPMS. Unless the resetting is per-
formed, the TPMS will not warn of the low tyre
pressure correctly.

The Remote Control Key is always communicating
with the vehicle as it receives radio waves. The Re-
mote Control Key system transmits weak radio
waves. Environmental conditions may interfere with
the operation of the Remote Control Key system
under the following operating conditions.
• When operating near
alocation where strong
radio waves are transmitted, such as aTVtower,
power station and broadcasting station.
• When in possession of wireless equipment, such
as am obile telephone, transceiver, and CB ra-
dio.
• When the Remote Control Key is in contact with
or covered by metallic materials.
• When any type of radio wave remote control is
used nearby.
• When the Remote Control Key is placed near an
electric appliance such as
apersonal computer.
In such cases, correct the operating conditions be-
fore using the Remote Control Key function or use
the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies depending on
the operating conditions, the battery’s life is approxi-
mately 2years. If the battery is discharged, replace
it with anew one.
For information regarding replacement of abattery,
see “Remote Control Key battery replacement” in
the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.
Since the Remote Control Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is left near equipment which transmits strong radio waves, such as signals
from
aTVa nd personal computer, the battery life
may become shorter.
Because the steering wheel is locked electrically,
unlocking the steering wheel with the ignition switch
in the LOCK position is impossible when the vehicle
battery is completely discharged. Pay special atten-
tion that the vehicle battery is not completely dis-
charged.
As many as 4Remote Control Keys can be regis-
tered and used with one vehicle. For information
about the purchase and use of additional Remote
Control Keys, contact an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
CAUTION
• Do not allow the Remote Control Key, which
contains electrical components, to come into
contact with water or salt water. This could
affect the system function.
• Do not drop the Remote Control Key.
• Do not strike the Remote Control Key sharply
against another object.
• Do not change or modify the Remote Control
Key.
• Wetting may damage the Remote Control Key.
If the Remote Control Key gets wet, immedi-
ately wipe until it is completely dry.
• If the outside temperature is below −10°C
(14°F), the battery of the Remote Control Key
may not function properly. •
Do not place the Remote Control Key for an
extended period in an area where tempera-
tures exceed 60°C (140°F).
• Do not attach the Remote Control Key to a
key holder that contains
amagnet.
• Do not place the Remote Control Key near
equipment that produces
amagnetic field,
such as aTV, audio equipment and personal
computers.
If an Remote Control Key is lost or stolen, RENAULT
recommends erasing the ID code of that Remote
Control Key from the vehicle. This may prevent the
unauthorised use of the Remote Control Key to op-
erate the vehicle. For information regarding the eras-
ing procedure, contact an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
The Remote Control Key function can be disabled.
For information about disabling the Remote Control
Key function, contact an approved dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
