Lost keys
Go to a member of the dealer network, taking
with you the vehicle's registration certificate,
your personal identification documents and if
possible, the label bearing the key code.
The member of the dealer network will be able
to look up the key code and the transponder
code required to order a
new key.
Do not throw away the remote control
batteries, they contain metals which are
harmful to the environment.
Take them to an approved collection
point. Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the electronic
engine immobiliser system; this could cause
malfunctions.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is a
sensitive
system; do not handle 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 may stop 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.
Locked vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make it
difficult for the emergency services to enter the
vehicle in an emergency.
As a
safety precaution, never leave children
alone in the vehicle, except for a
very short
period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key
from the ignition switch when leaving the
vehicle. Second-hand vehicle

possession checked in the dealer network, to
ensure that only your keys can be used to open
and start the vehicle.
