ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER 
 
All of the keys contain an electronic 
immobiliser device. 
  This device locks the engine supply system. 
It is activated automatically when the key is 
removed from the ignition. 
  After the ignition is switched on, a dialogue 
is established between the key and the 
electronic immobiliser system. 
  This warning lamp is switched off 
after the ignition is switched on 
and the key has been recognised, 
the engine can be started. 
  If the key is not recognised, the engine 
cannot be started. Use another key and 
have the faulty key checked by a CITROËN 
dealer. 
   
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. 
   
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle:  
   
 
-   ensure that you are given the confidential 
card, 
   
-   have the keys memorised by a  CITROËN 
dealer  to ensure that the keys in your 
possession are the only ones which can 
start the vehicle.  
 
 
 
 
 
CONFIDENTIAL CARD 
 
This is given to you on delivery of your 
vehicle with the duplicate keys. 
  It contains the identification code necessary 
for any work carried out by a CITROËN 
dealer on the electronic immobiliser system. 
This code is hidden by a film, which should 
be removed only if necessary. 
  Keep your card in a safe place, never inside 
the vehicle. 
  When undertaking a long trip or journey, 
however, it is advisable to take it with you 
along with your personal papers. 
  Driving with the doors locked may 
make access to the passenger 
compartment by the emergency services 
more difficult in an emergency. 
  As a safety precaution (with children on 
board), remove the key from the ignition when 
leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.

-   exterior perimeter protection by means of 
detectors on the doors and bonnet and 
on the electrical supply, 
   
-  interior protection, 
   
-  anti-tilt protection, 
   
-   protection against the unauthorised 
insertion of a key in the starter.

First ensure that all of the accesses are 
closed correctly. 
  The alarm is activated by 
pressing this control, the 
protection is active after a few 
seconds. 
  While the alarm is monitoring, any intrusion 
triggers the siren for approximately 
30 seconds, accompanied by illumination of 
the direction indicators. 
  The alarm then returns to monitoring mode. 
  The alarm is also triggered following an 
electrical supply cut-off, when the supply is 
restored.  
 
 
Deactivation using the remote control 
   
Deactivation using the key 
 
Unlock the doors using the key and enter 
the vehicle. Switch on the ignition to the 
RUNNING position, identification of the key 
code will switch off the alarm.  
 
 
Deactivation of the volumetric and 
anti-tilt protection    
Good practice 
 
To quickly deactivate the siren following 
unwanted triggering, unlock the vehicle 
using the remote control. 
  To avoid setting the alarm, before washing 
the vehicle for example, lock the vehicle 
using the key.  
  When this button is pressed, the 
alarm is deactivated when the 
vehicle is unlocked.  
 
 
Signalling of attempted intrusion 
 
When you return to your vehicle, 
flashing of the electronic engine 
immobiliser warning lamp or 
the appearance of a warning 
message in the instrument panel display 
indicates an attempted intrusion during your 
absence.  
  To deactivate the volumetric 
and anti-tilt protection, press the 
button located in the vehicle's 
courtesy lamp. To be effective, 
this operation must be repeated every time 
the ignition is switched off.
