The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to look up the key code and the transponder code required to order a new key.
LOCKING THE VEHICLE

In all cases, it is essential to remove the key from the ignition switch when leaving the vehicle.

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.
No remote control can operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.
