Remote control
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  ve -
hicle,
  without   you   being   aware   of   it.
Do
 
not

press
 
the
 
buttons
 
of
 
your

the
 
risk
 
of
 
stopping
 
it
 
from
 
working
 
and
 
the

  remote   control   would   have   to   be   reinitialised.
No
 
remote
 
control
 
can
 
operate
 
when
 
the
 
key
 
is
 
in
 
the
 
ignition
 
switch,
 
even
 
when

  the   ignition   is   switched   off,   except   for   reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the  doors  locked  may  make  access  to  the  passenger  compart -
ment   by   the   emergency   services   more   difficult   in   an   emergency.
As
 
a
 
safety
 
precaution,
 
never
 
leave
 
children
 
alone
 
in
 
the
 
vehicle,
 
except
 
for
 
a

  very   short   period.
In
 
all
 
cases,
 
it
 
is
 
essential
 
to
 
remove
 
the
 
key
 
from
 
the
 
ignition
 
switch
 
when
 
leaving

  the   vehicle.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make  any  modifications  to  the  electronic  engine  immobiliser  system;  this
  could   cause   malfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing  of  all  of  the  keys  in  your  possession  checked  by  a  CITROËN
 dealer ,  to  ensure  that  only  your  keys  can  be  used  to  open  and  
start

  the   vehicle.
