the RENAULT card.
Remote locking
With the RENAULT card on you, and
doors and tailgate closed, move away
from the vehicle: it will lock automati -
cally once you have left zone 1.
Note: the distance at which the vehicle
locks depends on the surroundings. The hazard warning lights
flash twice
and a beep sounds to indicate that the
doors have locked.
The beep may be switched off. Consult
an approved Dealer.
If a door or the tailgate is open or not
properly shut, or a card is in the passen -
ger compartment (or the card reader)
the vehicle will not lock. In this situa -
tion, no beep sounds and the hazard
warning lights do not flash.

er’s door handle. The vehicle will lock.

the vehicle's access zone (zone 1 ) to
be able to lock the vehicle using the
button.
The hazard warning lights flash twice to
indicate that the doors have locked.

If you wish to check that the doors are
locked after locking using button 4, you
have approximately three seconds to
try the door handles without unlocking
them.
After this time, the “hands-free” mode
is activated once again and any move-
ment of a handle will unlock the vehicle.

Driver’s responsibility
Never leave your vehicle
with the RENAULT card or
key inside, and never leave
a child (or a pet) unsupervised, even
for a short while.
The reason for this is that the child

starting the engine, activating equip-
ment such as the window winders
for example, or locking the doors.
If a part of the body becomes
trapped, reverse the direction of
travel by pressing switch 8.
