operating range
This varies according to the
environment: therefore take care
when handling the remote control
that you do not inadvertently lock
or unlock the doors.
Note: on certain vehicles, if a door is
not opened within approximately
30 seconds of the doors being
unlocked with the remote control,
the doors will lock again
automatically.
Interference
Interference may be caused to the
operation of the remote control by
factors in the immediate vicinity
(external installations or the use of
equipment operating on the same
frequency as the remote control).
If you lose your keys or remote
control unit, or need another set,
contact your RENAULT Dealer.
•Ifaremotecontrolunitis
replaced, it will be necessary to
take the vehicle to your
RENAULT Dealer because both
the vehicle and the remote
control are needed to initialise the
system.
•Depending on the vehicle, you
have the option of using up to
four remote control units.
Contact your RENAULT Dealer.
•Make sure the batteries are always
in good condition; they have a
service life of approximately two
years.
Refer to Section 5 of the driver's
handbook for information on how to
change the batteries.
