39ELECTRONIC 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.
k
eep 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.
a
s a safety precaution (with children on
board), remove the key from the ignition when
leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.
