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 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
b y t h e e m e r g e n c y s e r v i c e s m o r e d i f fi c u l t i n a n
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.
