RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL UNIT: general information (continued)
Remote control unit 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 door being unlocked by 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.
- If a remote control unit is 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.
If the remote control unit will not operate:
- Make sure that the batteries are always in good condition; they have a service life of approximately two years.
See Radio frequency remote control: batteries in Section 5 for the battery replacement procedure.

LOCKING THE DOORS (continued)
Second sliding side door (located on the fuel filler cap side).
This door does not have a lock on the outside. It is locked or unlocked from outside the vehicle using the remote control (at the same time as the other doors) or from the inside by moving the locking button (same for the other side door).
Opening and closing operations are the same as for the other sliding side door.
Special information when filling with fuel:
Depending on the vehicle, when the fuel filler cap is removed during refuelling:
- the doors lock then unlock immediately, except for the side door which remains locked,
- only the side door locks. This is to prevent the door from
striking against the filler nozzle during refuelling.
When the fuel tank has been filled, refit the cap. The locking button is operational again.
For vehicles without remote control locking, the door is always locked and it is therefore possible to unlock it from the inside.
Note: if the door was open before the fuel filler cap was removed, it will
not lock.
To ensure that it does not collide with the fuel pump filler nozzle while the fuel tank is being filled, close the door, taking precautions to ensure that no one is injured. It will then lock automatically.

SEAT BELTS
Always wear your seat belt when travelling in your vehicle. You must also comply with the legislation of the particular country you are in.
Before starting:
- first ensure that your driving position is correct,
- then adjust your seat belt to provide maximum protection.
Incorrectly adjusted seat belts may cause injuries in the event of an accident.
Even pregnant women should wear a seat belt. In this case, ensure that the lap belt is not exerting too much pressure on the abdomen but do not allow any slack.
Adjusting your driving position
- Sit with your back firmly against the seatback. (after having
removed your coat or jacket).
This is essential to ensure that your back is in the correct position.
- Adjust the distance between the
seat and the pedals.
Your seat should be as far back as possible while still allowing you to fully depress the clutch pedal. The seatback should be adjusted so that your arms are slightly bent when you hold the steering wheel.
- Adjust the position of your
headrest.
For safety reasons, the top of the headrest must be level with the top of the head.
