Do not operate it while it is in your pocket as there is a possibility that it may unlock your vehicle.The remote control cannot operate while the key is in the ignition, even if the ignition is off, except for reprogramming.

- check that you have been given the confidential card;
- have the keys memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer to be sure that the keys in your possession are the only ones which can start the vehicle.
