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 compart-
ment.
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-tilt 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,
- transport by sea.
Self-protection function
The system checks for the
putting out of service of its
components.
The alarm is triggered if the battery,
the central control or the siren wiring
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

marking on the ground has been
crossed on the right,
- on the left-hand side, if the mark- ing on the ground has been
crossed on the left.

- if the sensors are dirty (mud, snow...),
- if the markings on the ground are worn,
- if there is little contrast between the markings on the ground and
the road surface.
