identification documents and if possible the key code label.

your vehicle. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have
to be reinitialised.

is switched off, except for reinitialisation.
Locking the vehicle

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

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
