 ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER 
 All of the keys contain an electronic  
immobiliser device. 
 This device locks the engine supply system. 
It is activated automatically when the key is 
removed from the ignition. 
 After the ignition is switched on, a dialogue 
is established between the key and the 
electronic immobiliser system.  This warning light is switched off 
after the ignition is switched on 
and the key has been recognised, 
the engine can be started. 
 If the key is not recognised, the engine 
cannot be started. Use another key and 
have the faulty key checked by a  CITROËN 
dealer . 
  Good practice 
 Do not make any modifications to the  
electronic immobiliser system. 
 Operating the remote control, even when it 
is in your pocket, may result in involuntary 
unlocking of the doors. 
 The simultaneous use of other high 
frequency equipment (mobile telephones, 
domestic alarms…), may interfere with the 
operation of the remote control temporarily. 
  
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle:   
   -   ensure that you are given the confidential  card, 
  -   have the keys memorised by a  CITROËN  dealer  to ensure that the keys in your 
possession are the only ones which can 
start the vehicle.  
 Driving with the doors locked may 
make access to the passenger 
compartment by the emergency services 
more difficult in an emergency. 
 As a safety precaution (with children on 
board), remove the key from the ignition 
when leaving the vehicle, even for a short 
time.  
 ALARM 
 This provides:  
   -   exterior perimeter protection by means of  detectors on the doors and bonnet and 
on the electrical supply, 
  -   interior protection,  
  -   anti-lift protection, 
  -  protection against the unauthorised  insertion of a key in the starter.   
 The equipment includes a siren. 
  Activation of the alarm 
 First ensure that all of the accesses are  
closed correctly. 
 The alarm is activated by pressing 
this control, the protection is 
active after a few seconds. 
 While the alarm is monitoring, any 
intrusion triggers the siren for approximately 
30 seconds, accompanied by lighting of the 
direction indicators. 
 The alarm then returns to monitoring mode. 
 The alarm is also triggered following an 
electrical supply cut-off, when the supply is 
restored.

  Deactivation using the key 
 Unlock the doors using the key and enter  
the vehicle. Switch on the ignition to the 
RUNNING position, identification of the key 
code will switch off the alarm.  
     CONFIDENTIAL CARD 
 This is given to you on delivery of your  
vehicle with the duplicate keys. 
 It contains the identification code necessary 
for any work carried out by a  CITROËN 
dealer  on the electronic immobiliser system. 
This code is hidden by a film, which should 
be removed only if necessary. 
 Keep your card in a safe place, never inside 
the vehicle.   
 When undertaking a long trip or journey, 
however, it is advisable to take it with you 
along with your personal papers. 
  Deactivation of the anti-lift protection

the button located on the vehicle’s courtesy 
light.

unwanted  triggering,  unlock  the  vehicle 
using  the  remote  control. 
 To avoid setting the alarm, before washing 
the vehicle for example, lock the vehicle 
using the key.  
 When this button is pressed, the 
alarm is deactivated when the 
vehicle is unlocked.  
  Signalling of attempted intrusion
