Advice
Remote control
The remote control is a sensitive, high-
frequency device; avoid handling it in your
pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally
unlocking the vehicle.
Avoid pressing the remote control buttons
while out of range of the vehicle, due to
the risk of rendering the remote control
inoperative. It would then be necessary to
reset it.
The remote control does not work when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle
immobiliser, as this might result in
malfunctions.
Remember to turn the steering wheel to
engage the steering lock.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the exterior and
interior door controls inoperative.
It also deactivates the manual central locking
button.
For this reason, never leave anyone inside
the vehicle when it is deadlocked.

handle may affect detection.
If cleaning the inner surface of the door
handle using a cloth does not restore
detection, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
A sudden splash of water (stream of water,
high pressure jet washer, etc.) may be
identified by the system as the desire to open
the vehicle.
For reasons of security and protection
against theft, do not leave your electronic
key in the vehicle, even when you are near it.
It is recommended that you keep it on your
person.
If one of the doors or the boot is still open
or if the electronic key for the Keyless
Entry and Starting

system has been left inside
the vehicle, central locking will not take place.

boot are not subsequently opened, the
vehicle will automatically lock itself again after
about 30
seconds. If the vehicle is fitted with
an alarm, it will not be reactivated
automatically.
Automatic door mirror folding and unfolding can be deactivated by a
PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle, even for a short time, without
taking the

This setting is associated with AUTO mode only.
However, on deactivation of AUTO mode, the
indicator for the last setting remains on.
Changing the setting does not reactivate AUTO
mode if deactivated.
In cold conditions and when the engine is
cold, to limit distribution of cold air in the
passenger compartment, the air flow will
change gradually until the comfort setting is
reached.
On entering the vehicle, if the interior
temperature is much colder or warmer than
the comfort value setting, there is no need
to alter the value displayed in order to reach
more quickly the required level of comfort.
The system automatically corrects the
temperature difference.
