Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency services
to enter the passenger compartment in an
emergency.
As a safety precaution, take the electronic key
with you when leaving the vehicle, even for a
short time.
Purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by
a dealer, to ensure that the keys in your
possession are the only ones able to start the
vehicle.
Keyless Entry and Start

This system allows the unlocking, locking
and starting of the vehicle, while carrying the
electronic key on your person in the recognition
zone A.
Unlocking the vehicle

Selective unlocking (driver’s door, boot) is
configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch
screen application.
Complete unlocking
►  Pass your hand behind the handle of one of the
four doors or press the tailgate opening control.
If the motorised tailgate opening control is
activated, this action triggers its automatic
opening.
Opening the windows
Depending on version, keeping your hand behind
the door handle or maintaining the press on the
tailgate opening control allows the windows to be
opened to the desired position.
Selective unlocking
Driver's door
►  Pass your hand behind the driver’s door
handle.
The driver's door and the fuel filler flap are
unlocked (Petrol or Diesel).
The driver's door is unlocked (Rechargeable
hybrid).
►  To unlock the vehicle completely, pass your
hand behind the handle of one of the passenger
doors with the electronic key close to the
passenger door, or press the tailgate opening
control with the electronic key close to the rear of
the vehicle.
Complete or selective unlocking, and deactivation
of the alarm depending on version, is confirmed
by the flashing of the direction indicators.
Depending on version, the door mirrors unfold.
Selective unlocking of the tailgate
►  Press the tailgate opening control to unlock
just the boot.
The doors remain locked.
If selective unlocking of the tailgate is
deactivated, pressing this control also
unlocks the doors.

29Access02
Locking the vehicle
Normal locking

► Press the handle on one of the four doors
(at the markings) or the locking control on the
tailgate.
It is not possible to lock the vehicle if one of the
electronic keys is left inside the vehicle.
Closing the windows and sunroof
Maintaining pressure on the door handle or
the tailgate control allows the windows and,
depending on version, the sunroof to be closed to
the desired position.
This operation also closes the sunroof blind.
Make sure that no item or person could
prevent the correct closing of the
windows and sunroof.
Pay particular attention to children when
operating windows.
The locking, and the activation of the alarm
depending on version, is confirmed by the
temporary lighting of the direction indicators.
Depending on version, the door mirrors fold.
For safety and theft protection reasons,
never leave the electronic key in the
vehicle, even when you are close to it.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the interior door
controls inoperative. It also disables the
central locking button.
The horn remains operational.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle when it
is deadlocked.


►  Press the handle on one of the four doors
(at the markings) or the locking control on the
tailgate to lock the vehicle.
►  Press it again within 5 seconds to deadlock
the vehicle (confirmed by the temporary lighting
of the direction indicators).
"DS LIGHT VEIL"
The additional daytime running lamps
and sidelamps illuminate in a scrolling pattern
upon locking and unlocking the vehicle.
If one of the doors or the boot is still open
or if the electronic key for the Keyless
Entry and Start

s
ystem has been left inside the
vehicle, central locking will not take place.
If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or
tailgate are not subsequently opened, the
vehicle will automatically lock itself again
after about 30 seconds. If fitted to the vehicle,
the alarm is automatically reactivated (if
previously activated).
Automatic folding/unfolding of the door
mirrors is configured in the Settings >
Vehicle touch screen application.
As a safety measure, never leave the
vehicle, even for a short time, without
taking the Keyless Entry and Start system’s
electronic key with you.
Be aware of the risk of theft of the vehicle if
the key is present in one of the defined areas
while the vehicle is unlocked.
To preserve the battery charge in the
electronic key and the vehicle's battery,
the "hands-free" functions are set to

30Access02
hibernation mode after 21 days without use. To
restore these functions, press one of the
remote control buttons or start the engine with
the electronic key in the reader.

Wireless smartphone charger



This system allows wireless charging of a
portable device such as a smartphone, using the
magnetic induction principle, in accordance with
the Qi 1.1 standard.
The portable device to be charged must be
compatible with the Qi standard, either by design
or by using a compatible holder or shell.
A mat can also be used provided that it is
approved by the Manufacturer.
The charging area is identified by the Qi symbol.
The charger works with the engine running and
with the Stop & Start system in STOP mode.
Charging is managed by the smartphone.
With the Keyless Entry and Start system, the
charger’s operation may be briefly disrupted when
a door is opened or the ignition is switched off.
Charging

its centre.


When the portable device is detected, the
charger’s indicator lamp lights up green. It
remains lit for the whole time that the battery is
being charged.
The system is not designed to charge
multiple devices simultaneously.
Do not leave metal objects (e.g. coins,
keys, vehicle remote control) in the
charging area while a device is being charged
- Risk of overheating or interrupting the
charging!
When using applications for a long time in
combination with wireless charging, some
smartphones may switch to thermal safety
and cause some functions to stop.
Checking operation
The state of the indicator lamp allows the
operation of the charger to be monitored.

Advice on care and
maintenance
General recommendations
Observe the following recommendations to avoid
damaging the vehicle.
Exterior
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in the
engine compartment - risk of damaging
the electrical components!
Do not wash the vehicle in bright sunshine or
extremely cold conditions.
When washing the vehicle in an automatic
roller-brush car wash, be sure to lock the
doors and, depending on version, move the
electronic key away and deactivate the
"hands-free" function (Hands-Free Tailgate
Access).
When using a pressure washer, keep the jet
nozzle at a minimum distance of 30 cm from
the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas
containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).
Promptly clean up any stains containing
chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's
paintwork (including tree resin, bird droppings,
insect secretions, pollen and tar).
Depending on the environment, clean the
vehicle frequently to remove salty deposits
(in coastal areas), soot (in industrial areas)
and mud/salts (in wet or cold areas). These
substances can be highly corrosive.
Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop for
advice on removing stubborn stains requiring
special products (such as tar or insect
removers).
Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed by
a dealer or a qualified workshop.
Interior
When washing the vehicle, never use a
water hose or high-pressure jet to clean
the interior.
Liquids carried in cups or other open
containers can spill, presenting a risk of
damage to the instruments and controls and
the controls located on the centre console. Be
vigilant!
To clean instrument panels, touch screens
or other displays, wipe gently with a soft,
dry cloth. Do not use products (e.g. alcohol,
disinfectant) or soapy water directly on these
surfaces - risk of damage!
