Access
2► With a non-motorised tailgate: press and hold
this button to unlock the boot and partially open
the tailgate.
When selective unlocking of the tailgate is
activated, the doors and the fuel filler flap remain
locked.
If selective unlocking of the tailgate is
deactivated, pressing the button unlocks the
whole vehicle.
If motorised operation of the tailgate is
deactivated, pressing the button partially
opens the tailgate.
To lock the vehicle, it is necessary to close
the tailgate again.
Locking the vehicle
Normal locking
► Press the locking button.
The locking, and the activation of the alarm
depending on version, is confirmed by the
lighting of the direction indicators.
The door mirrors fold.
An access (door or boot) that is not properly closed prevents locking of the
vehicle. However, if the vehicle is fitted with
an alarm, it will be activated after 45
seconds.
If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or 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 be reactivated automatically.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the interior door
controls inoperative. It also disables the
central locking button.
The horn remains operational.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle
when it is deadlocked.
►

Press the locking button again within 5
seconds to deadlock the vehicle (confirmed by
the temporary lighting of the direction indicators).
Closing the windows
Holding the locking button pressed for
more than 3 seconds closes the windows.
When closing windows, ensure that no
person or object could prevent their
correct closure.
To leave the windows partly open on versions
with alarm, you must first deactivate the
interior volumetric monitoring.
For more information on the Alarm, refer to
the corresponding section.
"Peugeot Adaptive LED Technology"
With the Full LED 3D rear lamps, the
lamps illuminate in a scrolling pattern upon
locking and unlocking the vehicle.
Locating the vehicle
This function helps you to spot your vehicle from
a distance, with the vehicle locked:
–

The direction indicators or sidelamps and/or
daytime running lamps, depending on version,
flash for approximately 10 seconds.
–


The door mirror spotlamps come on.
–


The courtesy lamps come on.
► Press this button.
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.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle
immobiliser, as this might result in
malfunctions.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency services

29
Access
2This operation also closes the sunroof blind.
Make sure that no item or person could
prevent the correct closing of the
windows and sunroof.
Pay particular attention to children when
operating windows.
The locking, and the activation of the alarm
depending on version, is confirmed by the
temporary lighting of the direction indicators.
The door mirrors fold.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the interior door
controls inoperative. It also disables the
central locking button.
The horn remains operational.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle when it
is deadlocked.


► Press the handle on one of the four doors
(at the markings) or the locking control on the
tailgate to lock the vehicle.
►

Press it again within 5 seconds to deadlock
the vehicle (confirmed by the temporary lighting
of the direction indicators).
"Peugeot Adaptive LED Technology"
With the Full LED 3D rear lamps, the
lamps illuminate in a scrolling pattern upon
locking and unlocking the vehicle.
If one of the doors or the boot is still open
or if the electronic key for the Keyless
Entry and Start

system has been left inside
the vehicle, central locking will not take place.
If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or
tailgate are not subsequently opened, the
vehicle will automatically lock itself again after
about 30
seconds. If fitted to the vehicle, the
alarm is automatically reactivated (if
previously activated).
Automatic folding/unfolding of the door mirrors is configured in the Settings
>
Vehicle touch screen application.
As a safety measure, never leave the vehicle, even for a short time, without
taking the Keyless Entry and Start system’s
electronic key with you.
Be aware of the risk of theft of the vehicle if
the key is present in one of the defined areas
while the vehicle is unlocked.
To preserve the battery charge in the electronic key and the vehicle's battery,
the "hands-free" functions are set to
hibernation mode after 21 days without use.
To restore these functions, press one of the
remote control buttons or start the engine with
the electronic key in the reader.
For more information on starting with the
Keyless Entry and Start system, refer to the
corresponding section.
Electrical interference
The electronic key may not work if it is
close to an electronic device (e.g.
mobile
telephone (switched on or on standby), laptop
computer, strong magnetic fields). If this
occurs, move the electronic key away from
the electronic device.
Accumulations (water, dust, grime, salt, etc.) on the inner surface of the door
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.

(SOS) system provides direct contact
to the emergency services and is fully built
into the vehicle. This contact is made either
automatically via the sensors built into the
vehicle, or by pressing button 1.
According to the country of sale, the eCall
(SOS)
system corresponds to the systems PE112,
ERAGLONASS, 999, etc.
The eCall
(SOS) system is activated by default.
► To make an emergency call manually, press
button 1 for more than 2 seconds.
The lit indicator lamp and a voice message
confirm that the call has been made to the
emergency services*.
The eCall
(SOS) system immediately locates
your vehicle and puts you in contact with the
appropriate emergency services**.
►

Pressing again immediately cancels the
request.
The indicator lamp flashes while the vehicle
data is being sent, and then remains lit when
communication is established.
In the event that a serious accident is
detected by the sensors built into the
vehicle, such as the airbag control unit, an
emergency call is made automatically.
The eCall (SOS) system is a public
service of general interest and is
free-of-charge.
Operation of the system
