BATTERY
Special notes
To remove the battery, slacken mounting (A).
80
It is vital :
• to ensure that there is no sulphation on the
terminals,
• to clean and grease the terminals if necessary,
• to check that the nuts are correctly tightened
on the terminals. Incorrect contact could cause
starting faults or charging faults which could
cause sparks, making the battery liable to
explode,
•to check the electrolyte level.
Batteries with sets of removable plugs:
• remove the cover by hand or by using a tool
(stiff spatula),
• check that the electrolyte level in all the cells is
well above the level of the separators,
• if necessary, use demineralised water to top up
the level.
Note: certain types of battery have translucent
bodies which allow the level of the electrolyte to
be seen.
Never add electrolyte or other products to the
battery.
A - CHECKING
Check and ensure that:
• the battery tray and cover are not cracked or
split,
• the top of the battery is clean,
• the terminals are in good condition.

B- PRECAUTIONS
It should be remembered that a battery:
• contains sulphuric acid, which is a dangerous
product,
• produces oxygen and hydrogen during
charging. The mixture of these two gases
forms a detonating gas , hence the risk of an
explosion.
1) DANGER = ACID
The sulphuric acid solution is a highly aggressive,
toxic and corrosive product. It attacks skin,
clothing, concrete and corrodes most metals.
It is also very important, when handling a battery,
to take the following precautions:
• to protect your eyes with goggles,
• to wear anti-acid gloves and clothing.
If acid splashes on to your clothing, rinse all the
contaminated areas thoroughly in water. If your
eyes are affected, consult a doctor.
2) DANGER = RISK OF EXPLOSION
When a battery is charging (either in a vehicle or
elsewhere), oxygen and hydrogen are produced.
Gas production is at a maximum when the battery
is completely charged and the quantity of gas
produced is proportional to the intensity of the
charging current.
The oxygen and the hydrogen join together in the
open air, on the surface of the plates and form a
highly explosive mixture.
The smallest of sparks, a cigarette or a recently
extinguished match are sufficient to cause an
explosion. The explosion is so strong that the
battery can shatter and the acid is dispersed into
the surrounding atmosphere. People nearby are
at risk (shattered casing parts, acid splashes). The
acid splashes are harmful to the eyes, face and
hands. They also attack clothing.
Safeguarding against the danger of explosion,
which can be caused by a poorly handled battery,
must be taken very seriously. Avoid all risks of
sparks.
• Check that the "consumers" are switched off,
before disconnecting or reconnecting a
battery.
• When a battery is being charged in a room,
switch off the charger before connecting or
disconnecting the battery.
• Do not put any metallic items onto the battery
so as not to cause a short circuit across the
terminals.
• Never place a naked flame, a welding torch,
hot air gun, a cigarette or a lighted match near
to a battery.

IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
GENERAL
The immobiliser is controlled by a key recognition
system (known as coded key immobiliser system).
An independently operating coded chip without a
battery is integrated into each head of the vehicle
keys.
When the ignition is switched on, an antenna ring
around the ignition switch interrogates and cap-
tures the code from the head of the key and trans-
mits it to the decoder unit.
If the decoder unit recognises the code, the vehi-
cle will be permitted to be started.
The immobiliser is activated a few seconds after
the key is withdrawn from the ignition and this is
shown by the flashing of the red immobiliser war-
ning light on the instrument panel.
If there is a fault in the key recognition system, a
security code may be entered using the XR25 only.
This code may be communicated to the repair
agent (on his request) by the local assistance net-
work (depending on country, for example: Delta
Assistance on 0800.05.15.15 for France, NVSR for
the UK by fax only).
IMPORTANT: The repair agent must inform the
customer that the immobiliser system will reset it-
self automatically 10 minutes after switching the
ignition off.

NOTES
This system may be fitted to petrol or diesel vehi-
cles.
Petrol vehicles: the immobiliser function is carried
out by the injection computer.
Diesel vehicles: the immobiliser function is carried
out by the coded solenoid valve (on the injection
pump).
If the vehicle is fitted with a remote control for
door locking, a single decoder unit carries out
both functions (immobiliser and remote control).
The remote control has no effect on the immobili-
ser system (see section 88).
On these vehicles, the identification number of
the key heads contains eight alphanumeric cha-
racters, beginning with the letter E or A.

IMMOBILISER
Coded key immobiliser system
OPERATION
When the immobiliser system is activated (ap-
proximately 10 seconds after cutting + after igni-
tion feed), the red immobiliser warning light
flashes (slow flashing; 1 flash / second).
After switching the ignition on, the antenna ring
analyses the code from the key and transmits it to
the decoder unit.
If the code is not recognised by the decoder unit,
the injection warning light (petrol) illuminates for
a few seconds and extinguishes while the red im-
mobiliser warning light flashes (rapid flashing).
If the code is recognised by the decoder unit, it
sends a code to the injection computer (petrol) or
coded solenoid valve (diesel) via the coded line
and extinguishes the red immobiliser warning
light (after approximately 3 seconds).
At this precise moment, one of several situations
may arise:
- The injection computer (petrol) or coded sole-
noid valve (diesel) has no reference code in its
memory :
• the code sent to it is stored in its memory.
82
- The injection computer (petrol) or the coded
solenoid valve (diesel) has a reference code in
its memory:
• the code sent to it is compared with the code
in its memory,
• if the two codes match, the computer un-
locks the injection system (petrol) or coded
solenoid valve (diesel) and the engine may
be started.
When the ignition is switched on, the injec-
tion warning light (petrol) and the immobili-
ser warning light illuminate for 3 seconds then
extinguish, showing that the system is opera-
ting correctly.
• if the two codes do not match, the system re-
mains locked to prevent the engine from
being started.
When the ignition is switched on, the injec-
tion warning light flashes (petrol) and the red
engine immobiliser warning light illuminates
permanently then extinguishes or the red im-
mobiliser warning light remains illuminated
permanently (diesel) indicating that the co-
ded solenoid valve has not recognised the
code.The vehicle may not be started.
NOTE : to ensure the system operates correctly, no
objects (eg. : keyrings) should be allowed to come
between the key and the antenna ring.
IMPORTANT: when the vehicle battery has a low
charge, the drop in voltage caused by operating
the starter may set the immobiliser. If the voltage
is too low, the engine cannot be started, even by
pushing the vehicle.

NOTE : this fault may be shown by the XR25 (in
injection fault finding).
Connect the XR25 and enter the injection code.
The fault is shown by bargraph 2 RH side.
After entering
the message
on the XR25 display indicates a fault on the coded
line.
Diesel vehicle
If a system fault is detected by the decoder unit
when the engine is running, the red immobiliser
warning light will illuminate permanently until
the ignition is switched off.
IMPORTANT: In this case, after repair, the fault
memorised in the decoder unit must be erased by
entering command
on the XR25 to allow the engine immobiliser sys-
tem to operate again.
NOTE: this fault may be shown by the XR25 using
fault finding for the decoder unit (fiche no. 56).
Connect the XR25.
Set the ISO selector to S8.
Enter code
The fault may be shown by bargraph
6 RH or LH
side. Switch the ignition on, the red engine immobiliser
warning light will flash (rapid flashing).
Enter the vehicle security code (number corre-
sponding to the original key number).
After entering the security code, the red warning
light will flash again.
The XR25 display should show
(in injection fault finding). This indicates that the
injection computer has been decoded.
Switch the ignition off, remove the decoded
computer and return it to stock.
Refit the computer and decoder unit to the vehi-
cle.
NOTE : When testing the injection using the XR25
on a vehicle without an immobiliser, bargraph 2
RH side will illuminate (*22 = 2 def = computer
not coded). This is normal.
SYSTEM FAULT, ENGINE RUNNING
Petrol vehicle
If a fault in the system is noted by the injection
computer when the engine is running, the injec-
tion warning light on the instrument panel will
flash during deceleration and at idle speed (en-
gine speed less than 1500 rpm).
IMPORTANT: In this case, after repair, the fault
memorised in the injection computer and the de-
coder unit must be erased by entering command
on the XR25 or by disconnecting the battery (ap-
proximately 30 seconds) to allow the engine im-
mobiliser system to operate again.

4.Enter mode
on the XR25 then the security code number
and validate using
-If the code is correct
is displayed.
Bargraph 10 LH extinguishes.
The engine may be started.
The vehicle is protected once more :
• approximately 10 minutes after switching
the ignition off (automatically),
• after disconnecting the battery.
-If the code is incorrect
is displayed.
Bargraph 10 LH remains illuminated.
The engine may not be started.
The red immobiliser warning light and the in-
jection warning light (depending on version)
flash.
Switch the ignition off, then repeat the proce-
dure for entering the code.
IMPORTANT: you may make 3 attempts to enter
the code. If, after the third attempt, the code is in-
valid, you must wait for approximately 15 mi-
nutes before making another attempt.
When this period has expired, switch the ignition
off and on again and 3 more attempts may be
made.
NOTE : This procedure does not decode the injec-
tion computer or coded solenoid valve (depen-
ding on the type of engine)- it only authorises the
starting of the vehicle.
REMINDER : The ignition must be switched off
and on again between attempts to enter the
code.

PROCEDURE FOR ENTERING THE SECURITY CODE
With this immobiliser system, the procedure for
entering the security code is managed by the de-
coder unit.
The code is entered using the XR25 only.
The security code can only be entered if the en-
gine immobiliser system is active. The red immobi-
liser warning light must flash when the ignition is
switched on (rapid flashing).
After determining the security code number (re-
quest from the local assistance network, example
DELTA Assistance for France, NVSR for the UK by
fax only) , carry out the following operations:
1.Ignition off, the red engine immobiliser war-
ning light should flash (slow flashing).
2.Switch the ignition on, the injection warning
light (petrol vehicle) illuminates for approxi-
mately 3 seconds then extinguishes, while the
red immobiliser warning light should flash
more quickly.
3.Connect the XR25 to the vehicle and set the
ISO selector on S8.
Enter code
Bargraph 10 LH should be illuminated (fault
finding fiche n° 56).
