which has a special code. When the
ignition is switched on, this code must
be recognised in order for starting to be
possible.

the engine management system a few
minutes after the ignition is switched off
and prevents starting of the engine by
anyone who does not have the key.
In the event of a fault, you
are informed by illumina-
tion of this warning lamp,
an audible signal and a message in the
screen.
In this case, your vehicle does not start;
contact a CITROËN dealer as soon as
possible.

Lost keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's V5 registration document and
your personal identifi cation documents.
The CITROËN dealer will be able to retrieve the key code and the tran-
sponder code required to order a replacement key.







Do not throw the remote con-
trol batteries away, they contain
metals which are harmful to the
environment.
Take them to an approved col-
lection point.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a sensitive system; do not operate
it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock the
vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and
out of sight of your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and
the remote control would have to be reinitialised.
The remote control does not operate when the key is in the ignition, even
when the ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle

Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compartment
by the emergency services more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the
ignition when you leave the vehicle, even for a short time.
Anti-theft protection

Do not make any modifi cations to the electronic engine immobiliser system;
this could cause malfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle

Have the key codes memorised by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the
keys in your possession are the only ones which can start the vehicle.
