Battery life

Make sure that the correct battery type
is being used, and that the battery is in
good condition and inserted correctly.
Its service life is approximately two
years: replace it when the message
"Keycard battery low" appears on the
instrument panel (refer to the informa-
tion on the "RENAULT card: battery" in
section 5).
RENAULT card operating
range
This varies according to the environ-
ment: take care not to accidentally lock
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
"Locking and unlocking the doors"
in Chapter 1 and "Starting, stopping
the engine" in Chapter 2.
