A key number plate is supplied with your key. Record

the key number on the key number plate/metal tag

and keep it in a safe place (such as your wallet),

NOT IN THE VEHICLE. RENAULT does not record

key numbers so it is very important to keep track of

your key number plate.
A key number is only necessary when you have lost

all keys and do not have one to duplicate from. If you

still have a key, this key can be duplicated by an

approved dealer or qualified workshop.

KEY (where fitted)

1. Master key (with integrated key fob) (2)
2. Key number plate (1)
As many as 5 master keys with integrated key fob

can be registered and used with one vehicle.

ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (ATS*) KEY

(where fitted)

1. ATS key (molded) (2)
2. Key number plate (1)

1. ATS key (with integrated key fob) (2)
2. Key number plate (1)

Your vehicle can only be driven with the ATS keys,

which are registered to your vehicle’s ATS compo-

nents. As many as 5 ATS keys can be registered

and used with one vehicle. The new keys must be

registered by an approved dealer or qualified work-

shop prior to use with the ATS of your vehicle. Since

the registration process requires erasing all memory

in the ATS components when registering new keys,

be sure to take all ATS keys that you have to the

approved dealer or qualified workshop.
CAUTION
Do not allow the ATS key, which contains an elec-

trical transponder, to come into contact with wa-

ter or salt water. This could affect the system

function.

USING REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY

SYSTEM

WARNING

For Super Lock System equipped models, failure

to follow the precautions below may lead to haz-

ardous situations. Make sure the Super Lock Sys-

tem activation is always safely conducted.

•

When the vehicle is occupied, never lock the

doors with the integrated key fob. Doing so

will trap the occupants, since the Super Lock

System prevents the doors from being opened

from the inside of the vehicle.

•

Only operate the integrated key fob lock but-

ton when there is a clear view of the vehicle.

This is to prevent anybody from being trapped

inside the vehicle through the Super Lock

JVP0222XZ

REMOTE CONTROL KEY SYSTEM

(where fitted)

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

3-7

The Remote Control Key is always communicating

with the vehicle as it receives radio waves. The Re-

mote Control Key system transmits weak radio

waves. Environmental conditions may interfere with

the operation of the Remote Control Key system

under the following operating conditions.

•

When operating near a location where strong

radio waves are transmitted, such as a TV tower,

power station and broadcasting station.

•

When in possession of wireless equipment, such

as a mobile telephone, transceiver, and CB ra-

dio.

•

When the Remote Control Key is in contact with

or covered by metallic materials.

•

When any type of radio wave remote control is

used nearby.

•

When the Remote Control Key is placed near an

electric appliance such as a personal computer.

In such cases, correct the operating conditions be-

fore using the Remote Control Key function or use

the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies depending on

the operating conditions, the battery’s life is approxi-

mately 2 years. If the battery is discharged, replace

it with a new one.
For information regarding replacement of a battery,

see “Remote Control Key battery replacement” in

the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.
Since the Remote Control Key is continuously re-

ceiving radio waves, if the key is left near equipment

which transmits strong radio waves, such as signals

from a TV and personal computer, the battery life

may become shorter.
Because the steering wheel is locked electrically,

unlocking the steering wheel with the ignition switch

in the LOCK position is impossible when the vehicle

battery is completely discharged. Pay special atten-

tion that the vehicle battery is not completely dis-

charged.
As many as 4 Remote Control Keys can be regis-

tered and used with one vehicle. For information

about the purchase and use of additional Remote

Control Keys, contact an approved dealer or quali-

fied workshop.
CAUTION

•

Do not allow the Remote Control Key, which

contains electrical components, to come into

contact with water or salt water. This could

affect the system function.

•

Do not drop the Remote Control Key.

•

Do not strike the Remote Control Key sharply

against another object.

•

Do not change or modify the Remote Control

Key.

•

Wetting may damage the Remote Control Key.

If the Remote Control Key gets wet, immedi-

ately wipe until it is completely dry.

•

If the outside temperature is below −10°C

(14°F), the battery of the Remote Control Key

may not function properly.

•

Do not place the Remote Control Key for an

extended period in an area where tempera-

tures exceed 60°C (140°F).

•

Do not attach the Remote Control Key to a

key holder that contains a magnet.

•

Do not place the Remote Control Key near

equipment that produces a magnetic field,

such as a TV, audio equipment and personal

computers.

If an Remote Control Key is lost or stolen, RENAULT

recommends erasing the ID code of that Remote

Control Key from the vehicle. This may prevent the

unauthorised use of the Remote Control Key to op-

erate the vehicle. For information regarding the eras-

ing procedure, contact an approved dealer or quali-

fied workshop.
The Remote Control Key function can be disabled.

For information about disabling the Remote Control

Key function, contact an approved dealer or quali-

fied workshop.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments

REMOTE CONTROL KEY

OPERATING RANGE

The Remote Control Key functions can only be used

when the Remote Control Key is within the speci-

fied operating range from the request switch

➀

.

When the Remote Control Key battery is discharged

or strong radio waves are present near the operat-

ing location, the Remote Control Key system’s op-

erating range becomes narrower, and the Remote

Control Key may not function properly.
The operating range is within 80 cm (31.50 in) from

each request switch

➀

.

If the Remote Control Key is too close to the door

glass or door handle, the request switches may not

function.
When the Remote Control Key is within the operat-

ing range, it is possible for anyone, even someone

who does not carry the Remote Control Key, to

push the request switch to lock/unlock the doors.

When you lock or unlock the doors, the hazard indicator will flash and the horn (or the outside chime)

will sound as a confirmation.
The following descriptions show how the hazard indicator and horn/chime will activate when locking or

unlocking the doors.

Your vehicle has either or both of the following se-

curity systems:

•

*: Immobilizer
The security condition will be shown by the security

indicator light.

THEFT WARNING SYSTEM

(where fitted)

How to activate system (where fitted)

1. Close all windows.

The system can be armed even if the windows

are open.

2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF position.
3. Carry the integrated key fob or the Remote Con-

trol Key with you and get out of the vehicle.

4. Close and lock all doors. The doors can be

locked with the integrated key fob, the Remote

Control Key, door handle request switch (where

fitted), power door lock switch or mechanical

key.

5. Confirm that the security indicator light comes

on. The security indicator light glows for about

30 seconds and then blinks. The system is now

activated. If, during this 30 second time period,

the door is unlocked or the ignition switch is

placed in the ACC or ON position, the system

will not activate.

Even when the driver and/or passengers are in

the vehicle, the system will activate with all doors

locked with the ignition switch in the LOCK posi-

tion. When pushing the ignition switch to the ACC

or ON position, the system will be released.

Theft warning system operation

The vehicle security system will give the following

alarm:

•

The hazard indicator blinks and the horn sounds

intermittently.

•

The alarm automatically turns off after approxi-

mately 30 seconds. However, the alarm reacti-

vates if the vehicle is tampered with again.

The alarm is activated by:

•

Unlocking the door without using the integrated

key fob, the Remote Control Key, the door handle

request switch (where fitted) or the mechanical

key. (Even if the door is opened by releasing the

door inside lock knob, the alarm will activate.)

How to stop alarm

•

The alarm will stop only by unlocking a door by

pushing the UNLOCK button on the Remote

Control Key.

•

The alarm will not stop if the ignition switch is

placed in the ACC or ON position.

ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (ATS)

The Anti-Theft System (ATS) will not allow the en-

gine to start without the use of the registered ATS

key.
If the engine does not start using the registered ATS

key, it may be due to interference caused by:

•

Another ATS key.

•

Automated toll road device.

•

Automated payment device.

•

Other devices that transmit similar signals.

Start the engine using the following procedure:
1. Remove any items that may be causing the inter-

ference away from the ATS key.

2. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for

approximately 5 seconds.

3. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK

position, and wait approximately 10 seconds.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 again.
5. Start the engine.
6. Repeat the steps above until all possible interfer-

ences are eliminated.

If this procedure allows the engine to start,

RENAULT recommends placing the registered ATS

key separate from other devices to avoid interfer-

ence.
If ATS is malfunctioning, this light will remain on

while the ignition switch is in the ON position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine does

not start, contact an approved dealer or qualified

workshop for ATS service as soon as possible.

Be sure to bring all Remote Control Keys that you

have when visiting an approved dealer for ser-

vice.
