Replacing or adding a remote control without im-
mobiliser function without replacing the decoder
unit.
If the vehicle does not have an immobiliser, the re-
mote control does not have a special number. A
key head without a number may therefore be or-
dered.
If a key is being added or has been lost, remember
to order the insert with the key number.
Carry out the special resynchronisation procedure
using the XR25.
This procedure resets the remote control into se-
quence with the decoder unit (rolling code) and
should only be used if the decoder unit is not
being replaced (with immobiliser only).
1.Ignition off, connect the XR25 (ISO selector on
S8, code D56).
2.Enter command mode G32* (the doors lock
and unlock).
From this moment, the operator has 10 se-
conds to carry out the next operation.
NOTE: The 10 seconds are shown by the illu-
mination of bargraph 17 LH on the XR25
(code
D56,
fiche n° 56).
3.Press the remote control twice (the doors lock
and unlock).
NOTE :
- When replacing a key head, resynchronisa-
tion of the second remote control (if fitted)
is not always necessary.
Check that the second control operates,
otherwise resynchronise it.
- If both remote controls (if fitted) are desyn-
chronised, two resynchronisation proce-
dures will have to be carried out (one for
each remote control).
IMPORTANT: To ensure that the infrared code
is correctly transmitted it is essential to direct
the transmitter correctly towards the receiver.
If the procedure fails it will be necessary to
restart from the beginning (infrared remote
control only).
4.The procedure is complete - check that the
doors lock correctly.
Simple resynchronisation procedure
This procedure allows the remote controls to be
reset with the decoder unit (rolling code).
This procedure is used:
- when the remote control code no longer lies
within the reception range of the decoder unit
(over 1,000 consecutive presses on the remote
control, away from the vehicle).
- when replacing a decoder unit alone (new de-
coder unit),
- when replacing a remote control if the decoder
unit is new (replacing a kit).
REMINDER: when replacing or adding a remote
control with immobiliser function without repla-
cing the decoder unit, refer to "Replacing or ad-
ding a remote control with or without immobili-
ser function without replacing the decoder unit"
(specific resynchronisation procedure).

Ignition off:
1.Press and hold the central door locking button
for a few seconds until the doors lock and un-
lock.
From this moment, the operator has 10 se-
conds to carry out the next operation.
NOTE: The 10 seconds are shown by the illu-
mination of the red immobiliser warning light
(if fitted) and bargraph 17 LH on the XR25
(code
D56, fiche n° 56).
2.Press the remote control twice (the doors lock
and unlock and the red warning light extin-
guishes, if fitted).
NOTE : If both remote controls (if fitted) are
desynchronised, two resynchronisation proce-
dures will have to be carried out (one for each
remote control).
IMPORTANT: To ensure that the infrared code
is correctly transmitted it is essential to direct
the transmitter correctly towards the receiver.
If the procedure fails it will be necessary to

The new 30-track computers are provided with
the K and L lines for fault finding with the XR25
(except for vehicles with pretensioners only).
This enables computer faults or faulty lines to be
detected in the system (see section on fault fin-
ding).
NOTE: before each operation an auxiliary func-
tion enables the ignition lines to be de-activated
to prevent the risk of triggering the pyrotechnic
gas generators.
Various vehicle configurations are possible:
Vehicle fitted with:
- pretensioners only,
- pretensioners and driver’s airbag,
- pretensioners and driver’s airbag and passen-
ger’s airbag.
NOTE :
• A vehicle fitted with a driver’s airbag will be
identified by a label in the bottom corner of
the windscreen on the driver’s side, and by the
word "Airbag" in the centre of the steering
wheel.
• If a passenger airbag is fitted, a second label is
located in the lower corner of the windscreen
on the passenger side and the word "Airbag" is
located on the dashboard on the same side.
Each time the windscreen is replaced, remember
to fit the labels showing that the vehicle is fitted
with airbags.
These labels are available in a kit Part Number :

WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD
This warning light controls the pretensioners and
airbags, except for vehicles fitted with pretensio-
ners only.
It should illuminate for a few seconds when the
ignition is switched on, then extinguish (and
remain extinguished). If it does not illuminate
when the ignition is switched on, or illuminates
when the vehicle is being driven, there is a fault in
the system (see fault finding section).
IMPORTANT : the systems MUST be checked by
means of the
XRBAG, following:
- an accident which has not given rise to
triggering,
- theft or attempted theft of the vehicle,
- before the sale of a used vehicle.
These systems are not triggered in the case of:
- a lateral impact,
- a rear impact.
When it is triggered the pyrotechnic gas
generator produces an explosion combined with
light smoke.
NOTE : With pretensioners only,the computer has
a single sensor (electromechanical).
OPERATIONS ON THE TRIGGER LINES
If a fault is noted on one of these lines, the
component must be renewed and not repaired.
This safety equipment cannot be subjected to any
conventional wiring or connector repair opera-
tions.
The airbag trigger wiring is integrated into the
passenger compartment wiring loom . To make
replacement easier, cut the two ends of the faulty
wiring and run the new wiring along the same
routing, alongside the passenger compartment
wiring loom.
IMPORTANT : When fitting the new wiring, en-
sure it is not in danger of being cut or rubbed and
that the original wiring cleanliness is respected.
NOTE : The trigger lines are supplied by the Parts
Department in a kit containing both airbag and
pretensioner wiring.
OPERATION WITH AIRBAG(S) AND PRETENSIONER
EQUIPMENT
When the ignition is switched on, the
warning light illuminates for a few
seconds then extinguishes.
This computer is then on standby and notes dece-
lerations of the vehicle using the signal measured
by the integral decelerometer.
When a frontal impact of sufficient strength oc-
curs it triggers the simultaneous ignition of the
pyrotechnic generators of the two seat belt pre-
tensioners after receiving confirmation of detec-
tion of an impact by the electromechanical safety
sensor.
Under the action of the gases generated by the
system, a piston is displaced in its cylinder,
carrying with it a cable connected to the
corresponding central catch, thus enabling the
seat belt to be retracted (see pretensioner
section).
If the frontal impact is greater than this, the dece-
lerometer triggers the ignition of the pyrotechnic
gas generators which inflate the driver and pas-
senger airbags once the impact has been valida-
ted by the electromechanical safety sensor.

NOTE : when the airbag inflates, the steering
wheel cover is torn.Warning light on the instrument panel
shows the correct operation of the driver’s airbag,
the passenger’s airbag and the pretensioners (de-
pending on equipment).
NOTE : this system is operational after the ignition
has been turned on. A vehicle fitted with a driver’s
airbag will be identified by a label in the bottom
corner of the windscreen on the driver’s side, and
by the word "Airbag" in the centre of the steering
wheel.
Each time the windscreen is replaced, remember
to fit the labels showing that the vehicle is fitted
with airbags.These labels are available in a kit Part
Number : 77 01 205 442.
REMINDER : The computer must be replaced after
the airbag has been triggered. Certain compo-
nents will lose their nominal characteristics after
the trigger energy has passed through them.
