Central locking 
 
Press this button to lock all of 
your vehicle's doors.

Good practice 
 
Take care not to allow the remote 
control to come into contact with 
grease, dust, rain or a damp 
environment. 
  A heavy object attached to the key 
(keyring, ...) weighing on the shaft of 
the key in the switch, may cause a 
malfunction.  
 
REMOTE CONTROL    
Reinitialising the remote control 
 
Following changing of the remote 
control battery or disconnection of the 
vehicle battery, the remote control may 
have to be reinitialised. 
  Wait at least one minute before using 
the remote control. 
  Insert the key in the ignition switch with 
the buttons (padlocks) of the remote 
control facing you. 
  Switch on the ignition. 
  Press the locking padlock for at 
least fi ve seconds within the next 
ten seconds. 
  Switch off the ignition. 
  Wait at least one minute before using 
the remote control. 
  The remote control is now working 
again.     Use only identical batteries or 
batteries of an equivalent type to those 
recommended by CITROËN dealers. 
  Do not discard the remote control 
batteries, they contain metals which 
are harmful to the environment. 
  Deposit them at a CITROËN 
dealership, or at an authorised 
collection point.  
 
 
Folding/unfolding the key 
   
Changing the battery 
 
Battery ref.: CR1620/3 volts. 
  The "battery fl at" information is given 
by an audible signal, accompanied by 
a message in the screen. 
  To replace the battery, unclip the 
casing using a coin at the ring. 
  If the remote control does not work 
after the battery has been changed, 
reinitialise the remote control. 
  There is a risk of damage if the 
replacement battery is not the correct 
type .  Press this button to release 
the key from its housing. 
  To fold the key, press this 
chromed button then fold 
the key into the housing. 
If you do not press the button, the

When leaving the vehicle, check that 
the lamps are off and nothing of value 
is visible. 
  As a safety precaution (with children 
on board), remove the key from the 
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even 
for a short time.  
 
 
Good practice 
 
Do not make any modifi cations to the 
electronic immobiliser system. 
  Operating the remote control, even 
when it is in your pocket, may result in 
involuntary unlocking of the doors. 
  The simultaneous use of other 
high frequency equipment (mobile 
telephones, domestic alarms…), may 
interfere with the operation of the 
remote control temporarily. 
  The remote control does not operate 
while the key is in the ignition, even if 
the ignition is off. 
  ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER
 
All of the keys contain an electronic 
immobiliser device. 
  This device locks the engine supply 
system. It is activated automatically 
when the key is removed from the 
ignition. 
  After the ignition is switched on,
a dialogue is established between the 
key and the electronic immobiliser 
system. 
  The metal part of the key must be 
unfolded correctly for correct dialogue 
to take place.  
   
If you lose your keys 
  Visit a CITROËN dealer with the 
vehicle's V5 registration document and 
your identifi cation document. 
  A CITROËN dealer will be able 
to retrieve the key code and 
the transponder code so that a 
replacement key can be ordered.  
    
When purchasing a second-hand 
vehicle: 
 
   
 
-   have the keys memorised by a 
CITROËN dealer to ensure that 
the keys in your possession are 
the only ones which can start the 
vehicle.  
ALARM
 
If fi tted on your vehicle, this provides 
two types of protection: 
   
 
-   exterior protection: it sounds if a 
front/rear door or the bonnet is 
opened. 
   
-   interior protection: it sounds if 
the volume inside the passenger 
compartment changes (breaking of 
a window or a movement inside the 
vehicle).  
  If your vehicle is fi tted with a separation 
partition, the interior protection is not 
active in the load space. 
   
Locking the vehicle with 
complete alarm  
   
Setting the alarm 
 
 
 
-   Switch off the ignition and get out of 
the vehicle. 
   
-   Set the alarm within fi ve minutes of 
getting out of the vehicle, by locking 
or deadlocking using the remote 
control. The red LED, located in the 
button, fl ashes once per second.

  FRONT DOORS
   
From the inside 
 
Use the door opening control to unlock 
and open the door concerned.  
 
 
From the outside 
 
Use the remote control to lock/unlock 
the vehicle. 
  Insert the metal part of the key in the 
lock on the driver's side if the remote 
control does not work.  
 
 
Disarming 
 
 
 
-   Unlock the vehicle with the remote 
control or switch on the ignition, the 
red LED goes off.  
 
 
 
Locking the vehicle with 
exterior protection only 
  If, while you are away from the 
vehicle, you wish to leave a window 
partially open or a pet inside the 
vehicle, you should choose exterior 
protection only. 
   
 
-   Switch off the ignition. 
   
-   In the next ten seconds, 
press the button until 
the red LED is on 
continuously. 
   
-   Get out of the vehicle. 
   
-   Within the next fi ve minutes, set 
the alarm by locking or deadlocking 
using the remote control (the red 
LED fl ashes once a second).  
 
 
 
Triggering 
 
The siren sounds, the direction indicators 
fl ash for approximately 30 seconds and 
the red LED fl ashes rapidly. 
   
 
-   To switch it off, insert the key and 
switch on the ignition.  
  When the alarm has been triggered ten 
times in succession (when triggered for 
the eleventh time) it is deactivated. Repeat 
the procedure for setting the alarm.  
 
 
Locking the vehicle without 
alarm 
   
 
-   Insert the key in the lock on the 
driver’s door and lock it.  
  Do not set the alarm when washing 
your vehicle.  
 
 
Failure of the remote control 
 
When the alarm is set but the remote 
control does not operate: 
   
 
-   Unlock the doors with the key and 
open the door. The alarm is triggered. 
   
-   Switch on the ignition in the 
next ten seconds. The alarm is 
disarmed.  
 
 
 
Incorrect operation 
 
When the ignition is switched on, if the 
red LED remains on for ten seconds, 
there is a fault in the siren connection. 
  Contact a CITROËN dealer to have the 
system checked.  
 
 
Automatic setting of the alarm 
 
Depending on the country in which 
the vehicle is sold, the alarm is set 
automatically approximately 2 minutes 
after the last door is closed. 
  To prevent triggering of the alarm when 
a door is opened, you have to press 
the remote control unlocking button 
again. 
  Do not make any modifi cations 
to the alarm system as this could 
cause faults.

From the inside 
 
Unlock the side door using this handle 
and open it, guiding the rearward 
sliding to the point of resistance. Pass 
this point to hold the door open.  
   
Close the side door using the handle 
to start the sliding and pass the point 
of resistance. Then, use the shaped 
recess at the top of the door pillar to 
guide the door until it locks. 
  Do not use the grab handle to slide the 
door.  
 
SLIDING SIDE DOORS 
   
From the outside 
 
Pull the handle towards you then 
towards the rear and open the side 
door guiding the rearward sliding to 
beyond the point of resistance to hold 
it open. 
  A mechanical system prevents opening 
of the left-hand side door when the fuel 
fi ller fl ap is open.  
 
 
Good practice 
 
Take care not to block the guide space 
on the fl oor to allow the door to slide 
correctly. 
  If your vehicle is parked on a slope, 
guide the sliding of the side door. In 
fact, the door could open or close more 
rapidly due to the slope of the ground 
and could cause injury. 
  For safety and operation reasons, do 
not drive with the sliding side doors 
open.

position to other road 
users driving in the same 
direction who may not 
have seen your vehicle, 
use a warning triangle 
or other device required 
by the legislation in your 
country.   
 
In practice 
 
It is possible to drive with the right-
hand door open to make it easier to 
carry long loads. The left-hand door is 
kept closed by the distinctive "yellow" 
lock, positioned at the base of the door. 
This closed door must not be used as 
a load retainer. 
  Driving with the right-hand door open 
is a special dispensation. Comply with 
the usual safety indications to warn 
other drivers.
