Confidential card This contains the identification combination which is required ifany work is carried out on the
system by a PEUGEOT dealer.This combination is concealed bya strip which must not be removedunless required. Keep your card in a safe place, never in your vehicle.
ELECTRONIC ENGINEIMMOBILISER This locks the engine control system a few moments after the
ignition has been switched off andtherefore prevents starting of thevehicle by anyone who has not
got the key.

has a different code from that
