This handbook may also contain information about items of equipment to be introduced later in the model year.
Throughout the manual, the “approved dealer” is your DACIA dealer.

ment such as the window winders
for example, or locking the doors.

operating range
This varies according to the environ-
ment. It is therefore important when
handling the remote control to ensure
that you do not lock or unlock the ve-
hicle by inadvertently pressing the but-
tons.
Interference
The presence of certain objects (metal
objects, mobile telephones, or an area
with strong electromagnetic radiation,
etc.) close to the key may create inter-
ference and affect the operation of the

have the option of using up to
four remote controls.

imately two years.
