Locking the vehicle

There are three ways to lock the vehi-

cle: remotely, using button 4, or using

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.

Locking using button 4
With the doors and luggage compart-

ment closed, press button 4 on the driv-

er’s door handle. The vehicle will lock.

If a door or the tailgate is open or not

closed properly, the vehicle will quickly

lock/unlock.
Note: a RENAULT card must be within

the vehicle's access zone (zone 1) to

be able to lock the vehicle using the

button.
special note:
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 delay, the hands-free mode

is activated once again and any move-

ment of a handle will unlock the vehicle.

With the engine running, if after

having opened and closed a door the

card is no longer in the passenger com-

partment, the message Keycard not de-

tected (accompanied by a beep when

the speed exceeds a certain level)

warns you that the card is no longer

in the vehicle. This avoids you driving

away after having dropped off a pas-

senger who has the card, for example.
The warning disappears when the card

is detected again.

off, press button 1 (all the doors and

the tailgate lock, with the exception of

the driver’s door) or 2 (the entire vehi-

cle locks) on the RENAULT “SERVICE”

card.

The interior locking/unlocking

switch 3 is deactivated while the ve-

hicle is in use with the RENAULT

“SERVICE” card.
Each vehicle only has one

RENAULT “SERVICE” card.

Locking/Unlocking the doors

from the outside

This is done using the RENAULT Card;

see the “RENAULT Card” information in

Section 1.
In certain cases, the RENAULT card

may not work:
– if the RENAULT card battery is weak,

flat, etc.

– if equipment operating on the same

frequency as the card (mobile

phones, etc.) is used;

– vehicle located in a high electromag-

netic radiation zone.

It is then possible:
– to use the key integrated into the

card to unlock the front left-hand

door;

– to lock each of the doors manually;
– to use the interior door locking/un-

locking control (refer to the following

pages).

Using the key integrated in

the RENAULT card

– Remove cover A from the left-hand

door (using the end of key 2) in

notch 1;

– move it upwards to remove cover A;
– insert the key 2 into the lock of the

front left-hand door and lock or

unlock.

Locking the doors manually

Turn screw 3 with the door open (using

the end of the key) and close the door.
This means that the doors are then

locked from the outside.
The doors may then only be opened

from the inside or by using the key in

the front left-hand door.

To refit the headrest

Pull out the headrest rods 3 as far as

possible by pulling from the top. Take

care to ensure they are clean and cor-

Heated seats

(depending on vehicle)

With the engine running, turn control 4

to either position

1, 2 or 3 (depending

on the temperature required). An in-

dicator light on the instrument panel

lights up once the front seat heating

system is operating.

The system, which has a thermostat,

decides whether or not the heating is

needed, according to the position se-

lected.

For safety reasons, carry

out any adjustments when

the vehicle is not being

driven.

We would advise you not to recline

the seatbacks too far to ensure that

the effectiveness of the seat belts is

not reduced.
Nothing should be placed on the

floor (area in front of driver) as such

objects may slide under the pedal

during braking manoeuvres, thus

obstructing its use.
