Note:
The simultaneous use of
other high frequency equipment
(mobile telephones, domestic
alarms, etc.) may momentarily
hinder the operation of the remote
control.
If there is a permanent fault, the
remote control has to be reinitial-
ised. See “Changing remote con-
trol batteries”.
Central unlocking
A short press on control
B
unlocks your vehicle.
This operation is confi rmed by the rapid fl ashing of the direction indicators
and the lighting of the interior lamp (if the function is activated). It can also
deploy the exterior rear view mirrors.
Central locking – Deadlocking
A
short press
on button
A
locks your vehicle.
This is confi rmed by the lighting for around 2 seconds of the direction indica-
tors and by the interior lamp going out. It may cause the exterior rear view
mirrors to fold back.
If any of the doors, or the boot, is open or not properly closed, the central
locking does not operate.
For vehicles equipped with deadlocking, two successive presses on control
A
will operate deadlocking. It is then impossible to open the doors, either
from the inside or from the outside.
It is dangerous to operate the deadlocking when a person
is in the vehicle as unlocking is impossible from the inside
(without the remote control).

seconds.
Note:
Make a careful note of the numbers for the keys and for the remote
control on the ASSISTANCE card. Keep this in a safe place.
Do not throw away the old batteries. They should be returned to a
CITROËN
dealer or deposited at a recognised collection point (a camera shop, for
example).
Except when reinitialising, the remote control cannot function
while the key is in the ignition, even when switched off.
Warning: by inadvertently actioning the remote control, when
for example it is in your pocket, you can unlock the vehicle
without your realising it.
However, if none of the doors is opened within thirty seconds
following an unlocking, the doors will automatically relock.
Warning: there is a risk of damage if the replacement battery
is not the correct one.
Only use batteries that are identical or equivalent to those
approved by CITROËN.

KEYS
It is dangerous to operate the deadlocking when a person
is in the vehicle as unlocking is impossible from the inside
(without the remote control).
The key number is on the label attached to the key.
Should you lose your key or remote control, a CITROËN dealer
can supply replacements.
Electronic immobiliser key
The key operates all the vehicle’s
locks as well as the ignition.

For safety reasons, a buzzer
will sound if you have switched off
the ignition and opened the driv-
er’s door without having removed
the ignition key.
The key can be used to deactivate
the front passenger’s airbag. See
“Airbags”.
Central locking using the key
A brief action with the key locks the vehicle.
Deadlocking: Central locking using the key
A second action straightaway with the key deadlocks the vehicle. It is then
impossible to open the doors from either inside or outside the vehicle.
