lock the vehicle.

Normal locking using the remote
control

Normal locking using the key


)
Turn the key towards the rear in the
driver's door lock to lock the vehicle.








Locating your vehicle

This function allows you to identify your
vehicle from a distance, particularly in
poor light. Your vehicle must be locked.

Folding the key


)
First press this button to fold the key.


)
Press the closed padlock
on the remote control.
This will switch on the courtesy lamps
and the direction indicators will fl ash for
a few seconds.
Locking is confi rmed by fi xed lighting
of the direction indicators for approxi-
mately two seconds.
According to version, the door mirrors
fold at the same time.
In low light, locking also brings on of the
guide-me-home lighting (see "Visibility").

If one of the doors or the boot
is still open, the central locking
does not take place; the vehicle
locks itself then unlocks straight
away, identifi able by the sound
of the locks rebounding.
When the vehicle is locked, if it
is unlocked inadvertently, it will
lock itself again automatically af-
ter thirty seconds unless a door
or the boot is opened. The folding and unfolding of the
door mirrors using the remote
control can be deactivated by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.



Closing the windows using the
3-button remote control


)
Press and hold down the
closed padlock until the
level of closing is achieved.
The windows stop when
you release the button.
When closing the windows using
the remote control you must en-
sure that nothing prevents their
correct closing.
If you want to leave the windows
partly open, it is necessary to
deactivate the volumetric alarm
protection.


If you do not press the button when
folding the key, there is a risk of
damage to the mechanism.

ALARM *

System which protects and provides a de-
terrent against theft and break-ins. It pro-
vides the following types of monitoring.

- exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of the
vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries to
open a door, the boot, the bonnet...



- interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation in the
volume in the passenger compartment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks a
window, enters the passenger compart-
ment or moves inside the vehicle.



- tilt
The system checks for any change in
the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle is
lifted, moved or knocked.



Self-protection function
The system checks for the putting out
of service of its components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery, the
central control or the siren wiring are
put out of service or damaged.
For all work on the alarm sys-
tem, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualifi ed workshop.

en times in succession.
