Engine immobiliser
ENGINE IMMOBILISER
This prevents the vehicle being
driven by anyone not in possession
of the vehicle’s coded ignition key.
Operating principle
The vehicle is automatically protected
a few seconds after the ignition is
switched off.
If the vehicle does not recognise the
coded ignition key, tell-tale light 1 will
flash continuously and the engine
cannot be started.
Any unauthorised work
carried out on the engine
immobiliser (computers,
wiring, etc.) could be dan -
gerous. Work must be carried out
by qualified personnel.
System operation
When the ignition is switched on, tell -
tale 1 lights up continuously for approx -
imately three seconds and then goes
out. The vehicle has recognised the
code. You can then start the engine.
Vehicle protection
A few seconds after the ignition has
been switched off, tell-tale light 1 will
flash constantly.
The vehicle will only be protected after
the ignition has been switched off. Operating faults
After the ignition has been switched
on, if warning light 1 continues to flash
or remains continuously lit, there is a
system operating fault.
In all cases,
it is essential to contact
an approved dealer as only they are
qualified to repair the engine immobi -
liser.
If the coded ignition key is faulty,
use the second key (supplied with
the vehicle).

Starting/stopping the engine
STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
Never leave your vehicle with the key or remote control inside and never leave a child (or a pet) unsupervised, even

The reason for this is that the child may endanger himself or others by starting the engine, activating equipment such
as the window winders for example, or locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle has stopped completely. Once the engine has stopped, the brake servo,
power assisted steering and passive safety equipment such as air bags wi\
ll no longer operate.
The steering is locked when the key is removed.
