Operating faults
If the battery is too weak to ensure cor-
rect operation, you may start (insert the
RENAULT card in the card reader) and
lock/unlock the vehicle (refer to the in-
formation on "Locking/unlocking the
doors" in Section 1).
Do not throw away your
used batteries; give them to
an organisation responsible
for collecting and recycling
batteries.
