RENAULT CARD: battery
Replacing the battery
When the message “Keycard battery low” appears on the instrument panel, replace the battery in the RENAULT card:
- slide the rear casing 1 downwards while pressing on zone A;
- remove the battery cover 2;
- remove the battery by pressing on one side and lifting the other;
- replace it according to the direction and template shown inside the cover.
When refitting, proceed in the reverse order, then press one of the buttons on the card four times, close to the vehicle: the message will disappear.
Check that the cover is clipped shut.
The batteries are available from approved Dealers, and their service life approximately two years. Check that there is no dye on the battery: risk of an incorrect electrical contact.
If they need to be replaced, be sure to use the same or equivalent type of battery (consult an Approved Dealer).
When replacing:
- make sure that the batteries are correctly inserted.
There is a risk of explosion.
- if the flap does not close correctly, do not use and keep out of reach of children.
Operating faults
If the battery is too weak to ensure correct operation, you can still start and lock/unlock the vehicle (please refer to the information 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.
Precautions relating to batteries:
- keep (new or used) batteries out of reach of children;
- not to swallow the batteries.
Risk of chemical burns which may led to death.
- if ingested or inserted into any part of the body, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
