Electronic immobiliser key
The key locks and unlocks all the vehicle’s doors, as well as switch-ing on the engine.
Note : The key can also deacti-vate the front passenger airbag (see «Airbags»).
It is dangerous to op-erate the deadlocking when someone is inside the vehicle because it is impos-sible to unlock the vehicle from the inside (without the remote control).
The number of the key is on the label supplied with the key.
In the case of loss, only a CITROËN dealer can provide In the case of loss, only a In the case of loss, only a
you with new keys or remote controls.
Never attempt to modify the electronic immobiliser’s electri-cal circuit, as that could render your vehicle undriveable.

Turn the key briefl y in the door lock. The vehicle is locked.
Deadlocking : Central locking with the key
Turn the key a second time in the door lock. The vehicle is dead-locked. It is then impossible to open the doors from the inside or from the outside.
A long action with the key closes the windows.
Note : With thevehicle stationary and the engine switched off, lock-ing is signalled by the fl ashing of the warning lamp on the interior locking control.
If any of the doors, or the boot, is open or not properly closed, a re-bound sound signals to you that it is impossible to lock the vehicle.
K E Y S
All the vehicle keys contain an electronic immobiliser device.
After you switch on the ignition, a dialogue is established between the ignition key and the electronic im-mobiliser device.

Your vehicle may be equipped with an ANTI-INTRUSION ALARM.
This provides :
• Exterior perimeter protection by means of detectors on the vehi-cle access points (doors, boot, bonnet) as well as on the electri-cal supply.
• Interior volumetric protection by means of ultrasonic sensors (detecting movement inside the passenger compartment). This can be deactivated using the control 1.
The installation also has a siren, and a warning lamp on the control 1 which is visible from outside the vehicle, indicating the three pos-sible statuses of the alarm:
• Alarm not active (disarmed), warning lamp off.
• Alarm active (armed), the warn-ing lamp fl ashes slowly.
• Alarm triggered (signalling an intrusion), the warning lamp fl ashes rapidly if the alarm is dis-armed by a press on the control B. It stops as soon as you switch on the ignition.
Note : If there is a malfunction, the warning lamp remains perma-nently on.
DISARMING OF THE ALARM USING THE REMOTE CONTROL
The alarm is disarmed when you unlock the vehicle (with a press on button B on the remote control).
DISARMING OF THE ALARM WITH THE KEY
Unlock the doors with the key. The siren triggers. Enter the ve-hicle, insert the key in the ignition and turn it to the drive position to stop the siren. Otherwise the si-ren will continue for approximately 30 seconds.

OPERATION OF THE ALARM
First make sure all the doors are closed.
The alarm is armed by pressing button A on the re-mote control.
With the alarm armed, the protections are active after 5 seconds (perimeter) and 45 seconds (volumetric).
When the alarm is armed (on standby), any intrusion will trigger the siren for 30 seconds, accompanied by the direction indicators lighting up.
The alarm then goes back on standby, but the trigger-ing remains memorised and is signalled by the rapid fl ashing of the warning lamp on control 1 after you have deactivated the alarm with a press on the un-locking button B. The fl ashing stops when you switch on the ignition.
The siren is also triggered if there is a cutting of the electrical supply. To stop it, restore the electrical sup-ply then press on the unlocking button B.
Note :
• If you want to lock your vehicle without arming the alarm, just lock with the key only.
• If you try to lock your vehicle but a door, or the boot, is still open, the central locking does not operate but the alarm will arm itself after approx. 45 seconds. You will hear a rebound sound coming from the locks.
Note : The siren is automatically deactivated (for ex-ample for disconnecting the battery) as soon as the vehicle is unlocked using the remote control
Deactivation of the volumetric detection
You can operate the alarm with perimeter protection only, by deactivating the volumetric protection (if for example you wish to leave an animal in the vehicle).
For this, switch off the ignition then immediately press button 1 for at least one second.
The warning lamp on button 1 should come permanent-ly on. It will start to fl ash when the alarm is armed.
Arm the alarm by locking your vehicle with the remote control.
It is recommended to disarm the volumetric detection when you use an automatic car wash, to prevent ran-dom triggering of the alarm.
Automatic activation (depending on country)
The alarm is armed automatically, 2 minutes after the last door, or the boot, has been closed.
In order to prevent the alarm from triggering when you open one of the doors or the boot, it is essential to press the unlocking button B again on the remote control.
