– automatically closing the electric windows remotely (see the informa-
tion on “Electric windows” in

Battery life
Make sure that the correct battery type
is being used, and that the battery is
in good condition and inserted cor-
rectly. Its service life is approximately
two years: replace it when the mes-
sage “Keycard battery low” appears on
the instrument panel (refer to Section 5

or unlock the vehicle by inadvertently
pressing the buttons on the RENAULT
card.
Note: if a door or the tailgate is open or
not closed properly, the doors and tail-
gate lock then unlock quickly.
Interference
Interference by factors in the immediate
vicinity (external installations or the use
of equipment operating on the same
frequency as the RENAULT card) may
disrupt its operation.
When the battery is flat, you can
still lock/unlock and start your vehi-
cle. Please see the information on

Efficiency of a wiper blade
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. How long they last depends
on you:
– it must remain clean: clean the blade and the screen regularly
with soapy water;
– do not use it when the screen is dry;
– free it from the screen when it has not been used for a long time.
In any event, replace them as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency: ap-
proximately every year (refer to the
information on “Wiper blades: re-
placement” in section 5).
Precautions for using the
wipers
– In freezing or snowy weather, clear the screen before starting
the wipers (risk of motor over-
heating);
– ensure that no objects are ob- structing the travel of the blade.
Do not use the wiper arm to open or
close the tailgate.
