Lost keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document, your per-
sonal identifi cation documents and if possible the key code label.
The CITROËN dealer will be able to fi nd the key code and the transponder
code required to order a new 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 ve-
hicle, 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 switch,
even when the ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compart-
ment by the emergency services more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the
ignition switch 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 pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a
CITROËN dealer, to ensure that only your keys can be used to open and
start the vehicle.
