This locks the engine control system
as soon as the ignition has been
switched off and therefore prevents
starting of the vehicle by anyone who
does not have the key.
The ignition key has an electronic
chip which has a special code. When
the ignition is switched on, the code
must be recognised for starting to be
possible.
In the event of a malfunction, your
vehicle will not start.
Consult a CITROËN dealer.
Changing the remote control
battery
To change the battery, remove the
screw then unclip the housing using
a coin inserted at the ring.
Battery CR2016/3 volts.
If the remote control does not work
after the battery has been changed,
reinitialise it.
Reinitialising the remote
control
Following replacement of the remote
control battery or in the event of a
remote control malfunction, it may be
necessary to reinitialise the system.
Switch off the ignition.
Switch the ignition on again.
Press one of the remote control
buttons immediately for a few
seconds.
Switch off the ignition and remove
the key from the ignition lock.
The remote control is now working
again.
If the malfunction persists, contact a
CITROËN dealer.
Driving with the doors locked
may make access to the
passenger compartment by
the emergency services more
diffi cult in an emergency.
As a safety measure (with children
on board), remove the key from the
ignition when leaving the vehicle,
even for a short time.
Do not make any modifi cations to the
electronic immobiliser system.
Do not discard the remote
control batteries, they contain
metals which are harmful to
the environment.
Take them to a CITROËN dealership,
or to any other approved collection
point.
The high frequency remote control is
a sensitive system; do not operate it
in your pockets as there is a risk that
it may unlock the vehicle without you
being aware of this.
Avoid pressing the buttons of your
remote control out of range of
your vehicle, you risk rendering it
inoperative. It would then have to be
reinitialised.
