The unlocking, locking or deadlocking
does not take place:
-
i
f the ignition is on,
-
i
f one of the doors or the boot is still
open,
-
i
f the key for the Keyless Entry and
Starting system has been left inside
the vehicle.
When the vehicle is locked (with the
remote control or Keyless Entry and
Starting), if it is unlocked inadvertently,
it will lock itself again automatically after
about thirty seconds unless a door has
been opened.
And if your vehicle has an alarm, this
will be reactivated (with volumetric
monitoring, even if this had been
deactivated).
"Keyless Entry and
Starting" on your person
This allows the unlocking, locking and starting
the vehicle while keeping the remote control on
your person. As a safety measure (children on
board), never leave the vehicle without
taking your Keyless Entry and Starting
remote control, even for a short period.
Guard against theft when the Keyless
Entry and Starting remote control is in
the recognition zone with the vehicle
unlocked.
In order to preserve the charge of
the battery in the remote control, the
"hands-free" functions go into extended
stand-by after 21 days of non-use.
To restore these functions, press one of
the remote control buttons or start the
engine with the remote control at the
reader. The folding and unfolding of the door
mirrors by the remote control can be
deactivated by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
In the ignition on (accessories) position,
with the "START/STOP" button, the
hands-free function is deactivated.

Keyless
Entry and Starting " and in particular
the "ignition on" position, refer to the

In the case of a steep slope, the door
may be driven by its own weight and
as a consequence may open or close
j e r k i l y.
There would not be time for action at
the electric controls to take effect.
There would not be time for the
obstacle detection system to react.
Take care not to leave the vehicle on
a steep slope with the door(s) open
without supervision. If this advice is not
followed, injuries or damage may occur
if a person or an object is trapped or
caught.
On a steep slope
It is possible to open and close the doors
electrically on slopes of up to 20%.
However, if your vehicle is on a slope, with the
front of the vehicle facing up, open the door
with care. The door may open more quickly due
to the incline.
On a steep slope, guide the side door manually
to help it to close. However, if your vehicle is on a slope, with the
front of the vehicle facing down, the door may
not stay open and may close again jerkily with
the risk of injury.
Reinitialising electric doors
Following disconnection of the battery with the
doors open, it may be necessary to close the
doors manually to reinitialise them.
If the doors no longer work electrically,
reinitialise the door(s) as follows:
F
