Confidential card
This contains the identification
combination which is required if
any work is carried out on the
system by a PEUGEOT dealer.
This combination is concealed by
a strip which must not be removed
unless required.
Keep your card in a safe place,
never in your vehicle.
ELECTRONIC ENGINE
IMMOBILISER
This locks the engine control
system a few moments after the
ignition has been switched off and
therefore prevents starting of the
vehicle by anyone who has not
got the key.
Operation
Each key has an electronic chip
which has a special code.
When the ignition is switched on
the key code is recognised and
starting is possible.
If the key does not have a code
or has a different code from that
stored in the system memory, the
vehicle will not start.
Additional key
You can store up to 5 keys in the
memory.
If you require an additional key or
wish to change a faulty key, you
must visit a PEUGEOT dealer
with the confidential card and all
the keys in your possession.
When buying a second hand car:
Ensure that you are given the confidential card.
It is advisable to have the key codes memorised by a
PEUGEOT dealer to ensure that the keys in your possession
are the only ones which can start the vehicle.
Do not make any modifications to the PEUGEOT electronic engine
immobiliser system.
