Lost keys
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehi-
cle's V5 registration document and your
p e r s o n a l i d e n t i fi c a t i o n d o c u m e n t s .
The CITROËN dealer will be able to
retrieve the key code and the trans-
ponder code required to order a re-
placement key.
Remote control
The high frequency remote control is
a sensitive system; do not operate it
while it is in your pocket as there is a
possibility that it may unlock the ve-
hicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons
of your remote control out of range
and out of sight of your vehicle. You
run the risk of stopping it from work-
ing and the remote control would
have to be reinitialised.
The remote control does not operate
when the key is in the ignition, even
when the ignition is switched off, ex-
cept for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may
make access to the passenger com-
partment by the emergency services
m o r e d i f fi c u l t i n a n e m e r g e n c y .
As a safety precaution (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when you leave the vehicle,
even for a short time. Anti-theft protection
D o n o t m a k e a n y m o d i fi c a t i o n s t o
the electronic engine immobiliser
system; this could cause malfunc-
tions.
When purchasing a second-
hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a
CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the
keys in your possession are the only
ones which can start the vehicle.
Do not throw the remote con-
trol batteries away, they contain
metals which are harmful to the
environment.
Take them to an approved collec-
tion point.

O P E N I N G S
ALARM
System which protects and provides
a deterrent against theft and break-
ins. It provides the following types of
monitoring.
- Exterior perimeter
The system checks for opening of
the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if anyone tries
to open a door, the boot, the bonnet...
- Interior volumetric
The system checks for any variation
in the volume in the passenger com-
partment.
The alarm is triggered if anyone breaks
a window, enters the passenger com-
partment or moves inside the vehicle.
- Tilt
The system checks for any change
in the attitude of the vehicle.
The alarm is triggered if the vehicle
is lifted, moved or knocked. Locking the vehicle with full
alarm system
Activation
Switch off the ignition and get out
of the vehicle.
Press the locking button on the
remote control.
The monitoring system is active: the
i n d i c a t o r l a m p o n t h e b u t t o n fl a s h e s
once per second.
After the locking button on the re-
mote control is pressed, the exterior
perimeter monitoring is activated
after a delay of 5 seconds and the
interior volumetric and anti-tilt moni-
toring after a delay of 45 seconds.
If an opening (door, boot...) is not
closed fully, the vehicle is not locked
but the exterior perimeter monitor-
ing will be activated after a delay of
45 seconds at the same time as the
interior volumetric and anti-tilt moni-
toring. Deactivation
Press the unlocking button on
the remote control.
The alarm system is deactivated: the in-
dicator lamp on the button switches off.
Locking the vehicle with
exterior perimeter monitoring
only
Deactivate the interior volumetric
and anti-lift monitoring to avoid un-
wanted triggering of the alarm in
certain cases such as:
- leaving a pet in the vehicle,
- leaving a window partially open,
- washing your vehicle,
- changing a wheel,
- having your vehicle towed,
- transportation by sea.
Self-protection function
The system checks for the
putting out of service of its
components.
The alarm is triggered if the bat-
tery, the central control or the
wires of the siren are put out of
service or damaged.
For all work on the alarm system,
contact a CITROËN dealer. Deactivation of the interior
volumetric and anti-tilt
monitoring
Switch off the ignition.
Within ten seconds, press the
button until the indicator lamp is
lit continuously.
Get out of the vehicle.
Press the locking button on the
remote control immediately.
The exterior perimeter monitoring alone is activated: the indicator lamp on the
b u t t o n fl a s h e s o n c e p e r s e c o n d .
To be effective, this deactivation must
be carried out each time the ignition is
switched off.
