Access
As a safety measure (children on board), never leave the vehicle without taking your key, even for a shor t period.
Guard against theft when the electronic key is in the defined zone with the vehicle unlocked.
Maintaining any locking action automatically closes the windows and sunroof. Locking is confirmed by fixed lighting of the direction indicators for approximately two seconds. According to version, the door mirrors fold at the same time.
If one of the doors or the boot is still open or if an electronic key has been left inside the vehicle, the central locking does not take place. When the vehicle is locked, if it is unlocked inadver tently, it will relock automatically after about thir ty seconds unless a door is opened.
It is not possible to lock the vehicle if an electronic key is left inside the vehicle. After a long period of parking, the automatic detection functions of the electronic key are inhibited so as to not discharge the vehicle's battery. You should then use the remote control function of the electronic key to unlock the vehicle.
The folding and unfolding of the door mirrors by the remote control can be deactivated by a PEUGEOT dealer.
