My alarm went off about 4.45 am last week, i went out to check no issues with car. it went off again about 3.30pm a few says later so did the following:

Re identifying the alarm issue:
Press unlock button on remote 5 times quickly within 5 seconds;
The siren will generate the error code (a number of beeps)
Count the beeps it will give you the cause of the alarm activating:

1 beep - ultrasonic sensor
2 beeps - Tilt Sensor
3 beeps - External battery disconnected
4 beeps - Driver door
5 beeps - Passenger front door
6 beeps Passenger rear nearside
7 beeps - Passenger rear offside
8 beeps - Hood (from serial input)
9 beeps - analogical hood input
10 beeps – Trunk
11 beeps – ignition
12 beeps empty memory (no stored event)
it beeped twice which indicated the tilt sensor then when checked again beeped 10 times indicated trunk fault.

booked the car into renault cardiff and they have fitted a complete new alarm unit (under warranty car 3 years 2 months old) they did not even know that you could retrieve fault codes using the remote key pad.

hope this info helps you.
