THE RIGHT STEPS FOR YOUR DASHBOARD
Find it. Enter it. Drive.
Use the radio presets for the quickest method. If your unit only responds to the steering-column control, use the alternative below.
CLASSIC RADIO
Physical buttons or steering control
Set each digit
Press preset 1 repeatedly for digit one, 2 for digit two, 3 for digit three and 4 for digit four.
Confirm the code
Press and hold 6 until you hear a beep. Some models use 5.
Using the steering-column control instead
Turn the thumbwheel or use +/− to choose each digit. Briefly press the lower button to move to the next position. After digit four, press and hold that button until the radio beeps.
MEDIA NAV / TOUCHSCREEN
Enter it on the display
Newer multimedia systems use a simple keypad. The security screen normally appears after power has been disconnected.
Open the security screen
Switch on the ignition and multimedia system. Wait for the four empty spaces and number keypad.
Enter all four digits
Tap the numbers shown in your radio code, in the same order.
Tap OK
Check the digits, then tap OK. If the PIN is rejected, wait for the lock timer before trying again.
No compatible precode?
Some newer systems use a different process. Check the vehicle handbook, My Renault or an approved repairer.

BEFORE YOU START
Where is the precode?
Look for one letter followed by three digits, such as A123. It may appear after PRECODE or SECURITY.
01
Try the button shortcut
On many classic radios, hold 1 + 6 while switching the unit on. If that does not work, try 1 + 5.
02
Check the radio label
The precode is often printed after SECURITY on a label on the side or rear of the original head unit.
03
Check your vehicle records
Your four-digit radio code may already be recorded in the vehicle handbook or available in My Renault.
USEFUL ANSWERS
Before another attempt
This calculator accepts a letter followed by three numbers. Precodes beginning with A0 are not supported. Some newer systems use a different process.
Leave the radio switched on and wait until it allows another attempt. Repeated wrong entries can make the waiting time longer. Do not keep guessing.
