tem a few minutes after the ignition
is switched off and prevents starting
of the engine by anyone who does
not have the key.

function, you are in-
formed by lighting of
this warning lamp, an
audible signal and a
message on the multifunction screen.

documents.
The CITROËN dealer will be able to
retrieve the key code and the trans-
ponder code required to order a

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
vehicle, 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,
except for reinitialisation.

make access to the passenger com-
partment by the emergency services

CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the
keys in your possession are the only
ones which can start the vehicle.
Do not throw the remote
control batteries away, they
contain metals which are
harmful to the environment.
Take them to an approved collection
point.
