Lost keys
Go to a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's
registration document, your personal
identification documents and if possible the
key code label.
The
CITROËN dealer will be able to look
up the key code and the transponder code
required to order a new 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 risk making
it inoperative. It will then be necessary to
reinitialise it again.
No remote control can operate when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when
the ignition is switched off, except for
reinitialisation. Stopped vehicle
Driving with the doors locked may render
access by the emergency services to the
interior 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.
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. Do not throw the remote control
batteries away, they contain metals
which are harmful to the environment.
Take them to an approved collection
point.
