Electronic engine immobiliser

a special code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised in order for
starting to be possible.

after the ignition is switched off and prevents
starting of the engine by anyone who does not
have the key.


In the event of a fault, you are
informed by illumination of this
warning lamp, an audible signal
and a message in the screen.
In this case, your vehicle will not start; contact
