Access
ALARM
If fitted on your vehicle, this provides two
types of protection:


- exterior protection: it sounds if a front/
rear door or the bonnet is opened.

- interior protection: it sounds if
the volume inside the passenger
compartment changes (breaking of
a window or a movement inside the
vehicle).


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.
The remote control does not operate while
the key is in the ignition, even if the ignition
is off.
If your vehicle is fitted with a separation
partition, the interior protection is not active
in the load space.

Locking the vehicle with complete
alarm

Setting the alarm



- Switch off the ignition and get out of the
vehicle.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle:



- have the keys memorised by a
PEUGEOT dealer to ensure that the
keys in your possession are the only
ones which can start the vehicle.
- Set the alarm within five minutes of
getting out of the vehicle, by locking or
deadlocking using the remote control.
The red LED, located on the centre
console, flashes once per second.



Disarming



- Unlock the vehicle with the remote
control or switch on the ignition, the red
LED goes off.



Locking the vehicle with exterior
protection only
If, while you are away from the vehicle, you
wish to leave a window partially open or a
pet inside the vehicle, you should choose
exterior protection only.


- Switch off the ignition.

- In the next ten seconds, press
this button, located on the
centre console, until the red
LED is on continuously.

- Get out of the vehicle.

- Within the next five minutes, set the
alarm by locking or deadlocking using
the remote control (the red LED flashes
once a second).
When leaving the vehicle,
check that the lamps are
off and nothing of value is
visible.
As a safety precaution (with
children on board), remove
the key from the ignition
when leaving the vehicle,
even for a short time.
