USE Unplugging the current sensor inhibits Stop & Start function, in order to increase the durability of lithium battery. Information “Check Stop & Start” appears on dashboard, without any effect. During cold conditions, especially below -5°C (23°F), battery could not be able to start the vehicle. When such weather conditions happen, we recommend to use again the lead-acid battery. In any case, to ensure starting, the use of a battery jump starter or battery jump lead is allowed. If the battery lithium is not used during a long period, keep it regularly charged. Optimate Lithium Charger is the only certified charger for this lithium battery (distributed separately by Renault after-sales). In any case, the use of any another charger is forbidden. It could lead to irreparable damage to the lithium battery and cause serious injuries.
WARRANTY This product is guaranteed for 12 months from the date of purchase in the RENAULT network except mounting defect and except normal wear.
