lighting of the direction indicators for
approximately two seconds.
According to version, the exterior
mirrors fold at the same time.
This also triggers the timed switch-
ing on of the exterior side spotlamps
and guide-me-home lighting, if this
is activated.
Deadlocking renders the exterior and
interior door controls inoperative.
It also deactivates the manual
central control button.
Therefore, never leave anyone
inside the vehicle when it is
deadlocked.
First press button A to fold the
key.
Locating your vehicle
Press the closed padlock to lo-
cate your locked vehicle in a car
park.
This is indicated by lighting of the

A press on button

guide-me-home lighting (lighting
of the sidelamps, dipped beams,
number plate lamps and exterior
side spotlamps (located underneath
the exterior rear view mirrors)).
A second press before the end of
the timing cancels the guide-me-
home lighting.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip
which has a special code. When the
ignition is switched on, this code
must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser
locks the engine management sys-
tem a few minutes after the ignition
is switched off and prevents starting
of the engine by anyone who does
not have the key.
In the event of a mal-
function, you are in-
formed by lighting of
this warning lamp, an
audible signal and a
message on the multifunction screen.
In this case, your vehicle does not
start; contact a CITROËN dealer as
soon as possible.

STOPPING
Vehicles equipped with a
turbocharger
Never stop the engine without having
allowed it to run for a few seconds
at idle, this being the time required
for the turbocharger to return to a
normal speed.
Flicking the accelerator at the mo-
ment of switching off the ignition
could cause serious damage.
A heavy object (key fob...), attached
to the key and weighing down on
its shaft in the ignition switch, could
cause a malfunction.
Never turn the key to this position
when the engine is running.
