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
to enter the passenger compartment in an
emergency.
As a safety precaution, take the electronic key
with you when leaving the vehicle, even for a
short time.
Purchasing a second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a
PEUGEOT dealer, to ensure that the keys
in your possession are the only ones able to
start the vehicle.
Proximity Keyless Entry
and Start
This is a Keyless Entry and Start system. It enables automatic vehicle locking/unlocking
simply by detecting the electronic key.
As long as the driver has the electronic key
on their person, the vehicle unlocks as they
approach and locks when they walk away.
Key recognition zones:


Zone A: welcome lighting on approaching
the vehicle (between 2 and 5 metres from the
vehicle).
Zone B: automatic locking on moving away from
the vehicle (about 2
metres from the vehicle).
Zone C: automatic unlocking on approaching
the vehicle (between 1 and 2
metres from the
vehicle).
Automatic functions are configured in the Settings > Vehicle touch screen
application.
Unlocking the vehicle

Selective unlocking (driver’s door, boot) is
configured in the Settings
> Vehicle
touch screen application.
Complete unlocking

in zone
C, if the automatic functions are
activated.
►

Or by gently pressing the driver's door handle
or the button on the boot.
Unlocking, and alarm deactivation (depending
on version), is confirmed by the flashing of the
direction indicators and lighting of the daytime
running lamps.
Depending on version, the door mirrors unfold.
If the electronic key remains around the
vehicle (zones A, B or C) for more than
15 minutes without action, the automatic
functions are deactivated. To unlock or lock

the key is present in one of the defined areas
while the vehicle is unlocked.
In order to preserve the battery in the
