Recommendations
Do not store the RENAULT card
anywhere it may come into con-
tact with other electronic equipment
(computer, PDA, phone, etc.) as this
could hinder its operation.
After unlocking the vehicle or the
boot only using the buttons of the
RENAULT card, remote locking and
unlocking in hands-free mode are
deactivated.
To reactivate the hands-free mode:
restart the vehicle.
3
Unlocking the vehicleWith the RENAULT card in the zone 1,
press the button 3 or, depending on the
vehicle, place your hand behind the
handle 2: the vehicle will unlock.
In some cases (leaving the vehicle
parked for several days, for example),
you may need to pull handle 2 twice to
unlock the vehicle and open the door.
Pressing the button 4 also unlocks all
the doors and the tailgate.
The hazard warning lights flash once
to indicate that the doors have been un-
locked.

1.6
HANDS-FREE RENAULT CARD: use (2/3)
Locking the vehicle
There are three ways to lock the ve-
hicle: remotely, using the button 3, or
using the RENAULT card.
These three modes also allow the vehi-
cle to be locked with the roof open.
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. Please
consult an authorised dealer.
If a door or the tailgate is open or not
properly closed, or a card is in the
passenger compartment (or the card
reader) the vehicle will not lock. In this
situation, no beep sounds and the
hazard warning lights do not flash.
Locking using the button 3
With the doors and boot closed, press
the button 3 on the driver’s door. The
vehicle will lock. If a door or the boot is
open or not closed properly, the vehicle
will quickly lock/unlock.
Note: The RENAULT card must be
within the vehicle’s detection zone 1 to
be able to use the button for locking.
Special note: If you wish to check that
the doors are locked after locking using
the button 3 , you have approximately
three seconds to try the door handles
without unlocking them. After this delay,
the hands-free mode is activated once
again and any movement of a handle
will unlock the vehicle.

Locking the vehicle also locks the
glove box.

1.7
With the engine running, if having
once opened and closed a door, the
card is no longer in the passenger com-
partment, the message “Keycard not
detected” (accompanied by a warning
beep once the speed passes a thresh-
old value) will tell you that the card is no
longer in the vehicle. This avoids you
driving away after having dropped off a
passenger who has the card, for exam-
ple.
The warning disappears when the card
is detected again.
HANDS-FREE RENAULT CARD: use (3/3)
Locking using the RENAULT card
With the doors and luggage compart-
ment closed, press button 5: the vehi-
cle will lock.
The hazard warning lights flash twice
to indicate that the doors have locked.
Note: the maximum distance at which
the vehicle locks depends on the sur-
roundings. Special note:
The vehicle will not lock if:
– a door or the tailgate is open or not
properly closed;
– a card is still in zone 6 (or in the card
reader) and no other card is in the
external detection zone.

someone is still inside the
vehicle.
To activate deadlocking
You can choose between two deadlock-
ing activation modes:
– press button 2 twice in quick succes-
sion;
– or, press the button on the driver’s door handle 3 twice in quick succes-
sion.
The hazard warning lights flash five
times to indicate locking.
If the vehicle is equipped with a dead-
locking function, this allows you to lock
the opening elements and to prevent
the doors from being unlocked using
the interior handles (for example, by
breaking the window and then trying to
open the door from the inside).

card is still in the reader, the message
“Please remove keycard” is displayed
on the instrument panel accompanied
by a warning beep.
Door/tailgate open buzzer
If an opening element (door or boot) is
open or not properly closed, as soon
as the vehicle reaches a speed of ap-
proximately 6 mph (10 km/h), the mes-
sage “Boot open” or “Door open” (de-
pending on which is open) will appear

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.
Anti-submarining air bag
Located on each of the front seats, it
deploys in order to prevent the occu-
pant from sliding under the seat belt.
Air bags for driver and front
passenger
Fitted to the driver and passenger side.
Depending on the vehicle, the pres-
ence of this equipment is indicated
by the word “Airbag” on the steering
wheel, dashboard (air bag zone A) and
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.

1.26
METHODS OF RESTRAINT IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SEAT BELTS (4/4)
Warnings concerning the driver’s air bag
– Do not modify the steering wheel or the steering wheel boss.
– Do not cover the steering wheel boss under any circumstances.
– Do not attach any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder, etc.) to the steering wheel boss.
– The steering wheel must not be removed (except by qualified personnel f\
rom our Network).
– When driving, do not sit too close to the steering wheel. Sit with your \
arms slightly bent (see the information on “Adjusting
your driving position” in Section 1). This will allow sufficient space for the air bag to deploy correctly and be fully effective.
Warnings concerning the passenger air bag
– Do not attach or glue any objects (badge, logo, clock, telephone holder\
, etc.) to the dashboard on or near the air bag.
– Do not place anything between the dashboard and the passenger (pet, umb\
rella, walking stick, parcels, etc.).
– The passenger must not put his or her feet on the dashboard or seat as t\
here is a risk that serious injuries may occur. In general, parts of the body should be kept away from the dashboard (knee\
s, hands, head, etc.).
– The devices in addition to the front passenger seat belt should be react\
ivated as soon as a child seat is removed, to ensure the protection of the passenger in the event of an impact.
A REAR-FACING CHILD SEAT MUST NOT BE FITTED TO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNLESS THE ADDITIONAL RESTRAINT SYSTEMS, I.E. THE PASSENGER AIR BAG, ARE DEACTIVATED.
(refer to the information on “Child safety: deactivating/activating \
the front passenger air bag” in Section 1)
Warnings concerning the anti-submarining air bag
Do not let a child under the age of 12 sit in this seat. When triggered,\
the anti-submarining air bag may project objects left on
the seat base with a great deal of force.
Risk of serious injury.
All of the warnings below are given so that the air bag is not obstructe\
d in any way when it is inflated and also to prevent
the risk of serious injuries caused by items which may be dislodged when\
the air bag inflates.

1.29
ADDITIONAL METHODS OF RESTRAINT
The air bag is designed to complement the action of the seat belt. Both \
the air bags and seat belts are integral parts of the same protection
system. It is therefore essential to wear seat belts at all times. If se\
at belts
are not worn, the occupants are exposed to the risk of serious injury in\

the event of an accident. It may also increase the risk of minor superfi\
cial injuries
occurring when the air bag is deployed, although such minor injuries are\
always
possible with air bags.
The air bags are not always triggered if the vehicle should overturn or \
in the event
of a rear impact, however severe. Impacts to the underside of the vehicl\
e, e.g.
from pavements, potholes or stones, can all trigger these systems.
– No work or modification whatsoever may be carried out on any part of the air
bag system (air bags, arches, pretensioners, computer, wiring harness, etc.),
except by qualified personnel from an approved dealer.
– To ensure that the system is in good working order and to avoid accidenta\
l trig- gering of the system which may cause injury, only qualified Network personnel
may work on the air bag system.
– As a safety precaution, have the air bag system checked if your vehicle \
has been involved in an accident, or is stolen or broken into.
– When selling or lending the vehicle, inform the user of these points and\
hand over this driver’s handbook with the vehicle.
– When scrapping your vehicle, contact your approved dealer for disposal o\
f the gas generator(s).
Operating faults
Warning light 1 will light up on the in-
strument panel when the ignition is
switched on and then go out after a few
seconds.
If it does not come on when the igni-
tion is switched on, or if it comes on
when the engine is running, there is a
fault with the system (air bags, preten-
sioners in the front and/or rear seats,
arches, etc.).
Contact your approved dealer as soon
as possible. Your protection will be re-
duced until this fault is rectified.
