Before activating a Renault OEM device, please ensure that this vehicle is not registered with any Telematics Service Provider(TSP) other than Geotab. Only one TSP can interact with a Renault/Dacia vehicle; any alternative TSP contract needs to be terminated prior to activation with Geotab.

To learn more about the built-in reports, rules, and exceptions you can explore with telematics data, refer to the MyGeotab Product Guide. For more information on subscription plans, see the Data Set document.
While the solution uses the Renault embedded telematics device, all billing will be done by Geotab.
MyAdmin provides subscription plan options in a dropdown menu during the order process. For more information on subscription plans, please check the Data Set document. Pricing is available in MyAdmin under Billing > Rate Plans.
Billing begins when the device is added to MyGeotab and starts receiving data from Renault. The solution is billed at the end of every month (prorated).
You can see your Renault devices in MyAdmin under Devices > Device Management. Renault devices’ serial numbers start with “EA”.
GO devices can be replaced by OEM devices by using the Replace with new device option in MyGeotab. The Replace with new device option can only be used when moving from a GO device to an OEM device, it cannot be used to replace an OEM or third party device with a new OEM device.
! IMPORTANT: To update an OEM or third party serial number, the older OEM device must be terminated in MyAdmin, and unplugged in MyGeotab using the Unplug device > Keep Active option. Once unplugged, the new OEM serial number can be added on the asset page using Add device > Save new asset option.
Renault devices can be terminated from MyAdmin by following the standard device termination process. Identify your devices under Devices > Device Management. Use the filter options, as required, to narrow the search results. The table displays search results in real-time. Select a device serial number to edit the device information. Under the Details tab, select Terminate. The devices will be terminated on MyAdmin. After this step is complete, we recommend that you remove or archive the devices from MyGeotab as well.
Billing stops as soon as a device is terminated. To ensure complete termination, remove the device from the MyGeotab database or make it historic.
Terminated OEM serial numbers cannot be used again. To reactivate a vehicle, please repeat the procedure in Step 1 and Step 2 to register and add a new device.
Geotab Warranty and RMA Policy do not apply to Renault devices. As the hardware belongs to Renault, their policy for hardware warranty applies.
