Hi Diallo,

You will need to place the searchExtent within the arcgisGeocoder object.  Ex:

var geocoder =  new Geocoder({
    arcgisGeocoder: {
        placeholder: "Entrer Votre Adreesse",
        searchExtent:initialExtent
    },
    autoComplete: true,
    maxLocations:10,
    map: map
 }, dom.byId("search"));
