47ACCESS and STARTING
-
ELECTRONIC ENGINE
IMMOBILISER
This locks the engine control sys-
tem as soon as the ignition has been
switched off and therefore prevents
starting of the vehicle by anyone who
does not have the key.
The ignition key has an electronic
chip which has a special code. When
the ignition is switched on, the code
must be recognised for the vehicle to
start.
If the system does not function
correctly,
the central locking button
indicator light, situated in the centre
of the fascia, fl ashes rapidly when the
ignition is switched on (2nd notch),
accompanied by an audible signal
and a message on the display.
In this case your vehicle will not start.
Contact a CITROËN dealer as soon
as possible.
Key in ignition
A buzzer sounds on opening the driv-
er's door, if the key has been left in
the ignition. Make a careful note of the
number of each key. This
number is coded on the label
attached to the key.
The high frequency remote control is
a sensitive system; do not operate it
while it is in your pocket as there is a
possibility that it may unlock the vehi-
cle, without you being aware of it.
The remote control does not operate
when the key is in the ignition, even
when the ignition is switched off,
except for reprogramming.
Do not operate the deadlocking function
if there is anyone inside the vehicle.
Driving with the doors locked may
make access to the passenger com-
partment by the emergency services
more diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when you leave the vehicle,
even for a short time.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons
of your remote control out of range of
your vehicle.
You run the risk of stopping it from
working and the remote control would
have to be reprogrammed.
When purchasing a second-hand ve-
hicle, have the key codes memorised
by a CITROËN dealer, to ensure that
the keys in your possession are the
only ones which can start the vehicle.
Do not make any modifi cations to the
electronic engine immobiliser system.
If the keys are lost
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehi-
cle's V5 registration certifi cate and your
personal identifi cation documents.
The CITROËN network will be able to
retrieve the key code and the trans-
ponder code to order a replacement
key.
A heavy object (key fob...), attached
to the key and weighing down on
its shaft in the ignition switch, could
cause a malfunction.

Radio reception
Your car radio is subject to phenom-
ena which do not affect domestic ra-
dio sets. Both AM (MW/LW) and FM
reception are subject to various forms
of interference. This is no refl ection on
the quality of the equipment, but is due
to the nature of the signals and the way
in which they are transmitted.
On MW/LW, interference may be no-
ticed when passing under high voltage
power lines or bridges, or in tunnels.
On FM, interference may be the result
of increasing distance from the trans-
mitter, defl ection of the signals by ob-
stacles (mountains, hills, buildings,
etc.), or of being in an area which is
not covered by a transmitter.
