Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip which has
a special code. When the ignition is switched
on, this code must be recognised to permit
starting.
This electronic immobiliser locks the control
system a few moments after the ignition is
switched off and prevents starting by anyone
who does not have the key.
In the event of a malfunction and if your vehicle
does not start, contact a PEUGEOT dealer as
soon as possible.
Remote control problem

you can neither unlock nor lock your vehicle.

Lost keys
Visit a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle's V5 registration document and your personal
identification documents.
The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to retrieve the key code and the transponder code
required to order a replacement key.
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 vehicle, without you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your remote control out of range and out of sight of
your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working.
The remote control does not operate when the key is in the ignition, even when the ignition
is switched off.
Locking the vehicle
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 you
leave the vehicle, even for a short time.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the electronic immobiliser system; this could cause
malfunctions.
When purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys in your
possession are the only ones which can start the vehicle.
