may not operate if close to certain electronic
devices: telephone, laptop computer, strong

may stop it from working and the remote control
would have to be reinitialised.
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 or take the
remote control with you when leaving the vehicle,
even for a short time. Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the electronic
engine immobiliser system; this could cause
malfunctions.
Do not forget to turn the steering to engage the
steering lock.

dealer, to ensure that the keys in your possession
are the only ones which can start the vehicle.
