Before towing, unlock the steering column: with the clutch depressed, engage first gear (lever in position N or R for vehicles with automatic gearboxes), insert the RENAULT card in the card reader, then press the engine start button for two seconds.

Reposition the lever to neutral (position N for vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox).

To avoid all risk of sparks:

- Ensure that any electrical consumers (courtesy lights, etc.) are switched off before disconnecting or reconnecting the battery.

- When charging, stop the charger before connecting or disconnecting the battery.

- Do not place metal objects on the battery to avoid creating a short circuit between the terminals.

Operating faults

If the battery is too weak to ensure correct operation, you can still start (insert the RENAULT card in the card reader) and lock/unlock the vehicle (refer to the information on "Locking/unlocking the doors" in Section 1).
