 KEY 
 This locks and unlocks the doors on the 
vehicle, opens and closes the fuel filler cap, 
as well as starting and stopping the engine. 
 REMOTE  CONTROL 
 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. 
 The metal part of the key must be unfolded 
correctly for correct dialogue to take place.  
  Reinitialising the remote control 
 Following changing of the remote control 
battery or disconnection of the vehicle battery, 
the remote control may have to be reinitialised. 
 Wait at least one minute before using the 
remote control. 
 Insert the key in the ignition switch with the buttons 
(padlocks) of the remote control facing you.  Switch on the ignition. 
 Press the locking padlock for at least 
five seconds within the next ten seconds. 
 Switch off the ignition. 
 Wait at least one minute before using the 
remote control. 
 The remote control is now working again.  
 There is a risk of damage if the replacement 
battery is not the correct type. 
 Use only identical batteries or batteries of an 
equivalent type to those recommended by 
PEUGEOT dealers. 
 Do not discard the remote control batteries, 
they contain metals which are harmful to the 
environment. 
 Deposit them at a PEUGEOT dealership, or 
at an authorised collection point.  
  Changing  the  battery 
 Battery ref.: CR1620 / 3 volts. 
 The "battery flat" information is given by an 
audible signal, accompanied by a message 
in the screen. 
 To replace the battery, unclip the casing 
using a coin at the ring. 
 If the remote control does not work after the 
battery has been changed, reinitialise the 
remote control.    If you lose your keys 
 Visit a PEUGEOT dealer with the 
vehicle's V5 registration document and your 
identification document. 
 A PEUGEOT dealer will be able to retrieve 
the key code and the transponder code so 
that a replacement key can be ordered.

 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.

  Triggering 
 The siren sounds, the direction indicators 
flash for approximately 30 seconds and the 
red LED flashes rapidly. 
   -   To switch it off, insert the key and switch on the ignition.  
 When the alarm has been triggered ten 
times in succession (when triggered for the 
eleventh time) it is deactivated. Repeat the 
rules for setting the alarm.  
  Malfunction 
 When the ignition is switched on, if the 
red LED remains on for ten seconds, this 
indicates a malfunction with the siren 
connection. 
 Have the system checked by a PEUGEOT 
dealer or a qualified workshop.  
  Locking the vehicle without alarm 
   -   Insert the key in the lock on the driver's  door and lock it.  
 Do not set the alarm when washing your 
vehicle.  
  Failure of the remote control 
 When the alarm is set but the remote control 
does not operate: 
   -   Unlock the doors with the key and open  the door. The alarm is triggered. 
  -   Switch on the ignition in the next ten  seconds. The alarm is disarmed.   
  Automatic setting of the alarm 
 Depending on the country in which the 
vehicle is sold, the alarm is set automatically 
approximately 2 minutes after the last door 
is closed. 
 To prevent triggering of the alarm when a 
door is opened, it is imperative to press the 
remote control unlocking button again. 
 Do not make any modifications to 
the alarm system as this could cause 
faults.

dealer network can deactivate this opening 
selectivity between the cab and load space; 
contact a PEUGEOT dealer. 
 The doors can still be opened from the 
inside. 
  Driving with the doors locked may 
make access to the cabin more difficult 
in an emergency.
