RENAULT “HANDS-FREE” CARD: usage (1/4)
Do not store the RENAULT card
anywhere it may come into con-
tact with other electronic equipment
(computer, phone, etc.) as this could
hinder its operation.
Driver’s responsibility
when parking or stopping
the vehicle
Never leave an animal,
child or adult who is not self-suffi-
cient alone in 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 locking the
doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,
please remember that the tempera-
ture inside the passenger compart-
ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS
INJURY.
There are two ways to unlock/lock the
vehicle:
– the RENAULT card in “Hands-free”
mode;
– the RENAULT card in remote con-
trol mode.
1
Using the card in “hands-
free” mode
In “hands-free” mode, it is possible to
lock/unlock the vehicle without using
any of the RENAULT card’s buttons,
as long as the card is within the access
zone 1.
Note: It is possible to disable “hands-
free” access using the multifunction
screen (please see the equipment in-
structions).

1.28
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (2/4)
Load limiter
Above a certain severity of impact, this
mechanism is used to limit the force of
the belt against the body so that it is at
an acceptable level.
airbags for driver and
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
The presence of this equipment is in-
dicated by the word “Air bag” on the
steering wheel and dashboard (air bag
zone A) and, depending on the vehicle,
a symbol on the lower section of the
windscreen.
Each air bag system consists of:
– an air bag and gas generator fitted on the steering wheel for the driver
and in the dashboard for the front
passenger;
– an electronic unit for system monitor- ing which controls the gas generator
electrical trigger system;
– remote sensors;
– a single warning light
å on the
instrument panel.
A
The air bag system uses
pyrotechnic principles. This
explains why, when the air
bag inflates, it will gener-
ate heat, produce smoke (this does
not mean that a fire is about to start)
and make a noise upon detonation.
In a situation where an air bag is
required, it will inflate immediately
and this may cause some minor, su-
perficial grazing to the skin or other
problems.

AUTOMATIC TAILGATE (1/5)
Conditions of use
– Immobilise the vehicle.

or snow must be removed to free the
tailgate.
– In the event that the battery is dis- charged or if it is changed, the tail-
gate should be closed (manually
if necessary) to restart the tailgate
motor.
Ensure that nobody is close
to the moving parts when
opening/closing the tail-
gate.
Risk of injury.
Opening/Closing
Activating the automatic tailgate open-
ing or closing using the dashboard
control or using the card, three beeps
sound just before the tailgate begins to
move.
When opening or closing the tail-
gate, ensure that nothing interferes
with the manoeuvre.
To avoid damaging the tailgate
system, do not manually force the
tailgate to open or close while it is
moving.
