Lost electronic key
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's registration document and your personal identification documents and if possible the key code label.
T he  CITROËN  dealer  will  be  able  to  retrieve  the  key  code  and  the  transponder  code  required  to  order  a  new  key.
Electronic key
The electronic key 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  electronic  key  out  of  range  and  out  of  sight  of  your  vehicle.  You  run  the  risk  of  stopping  it  from Â
w
orking  and  the  remote  control  would  have  to  be  reinitialised.
The
 electronic  key  cannot  operate  as  a  remote  control  when  it  is  in  the  reader  or  even  when  the  ignition  is  switched  on.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may make access to the passenger compartment by the emergency services more difficult in an emergency.
A s  a  safety  precaution  (with  children  on  board),  take  the  electronic  key  with  you  when  you  leave  the  vehicle,  even  for  a  short  time.
Electrical interference
The electronic key may not operate if close to certain electronic devices: telephone, laptop computer, strong magnetic fields, ...
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system; this could cause malfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have all of the keys in your possession paired by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure that only your keys allow your vehicle to be unlocked and started.

l
ock  your  vehicle  to  avoid  the  risk  of Â
u
nexpected
 ope
ning.
Repeated
 opening  and  closing  of  the Â

e
lectric  motor,  after  which  opening  and Â
c
