Access

It is not possible to lock the vehicle if one of the

electronic keys is left inside the vehicle.

If one of the doors or the boot is still open

or if the electronic key for the Keyless

Entry and Starting system has been left

inside the vehicle, the central locking does

not take place.

If the vehicle is unlocked inadvertently

and there is then no action on the doors

or boot, the vehicle will automatically lock

itself again after about 30 seconds.

If fitted to your vehicle, the alarm will also

be reactivated automatically.

In order to preserve the battery in the

electronic key and the vehicle's battery,

the "hands-free" functions are put into

long-term standby 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.

the tailgate control allows the windows and,

depending on version, the sunroof to be closed

to the desired position.

This operation also closes the sunroof blind.

The automatic folding and unfolding of the

door mirrors can be deactivated via the

vehicle's configuration menu.

Make sure that no item or person could

prevent the correct closing of the windows

and sunroof.

If cleaning the inner surface of the door

handle using a cloth does not restore

detection, contact a CITROËN 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.

could cause malfunctions.

not forget to remove the key and turn the

steering wheel to engage the steering

lock.

Advice

Locking the vehicle

Driving with the doors locked could make

it more difficult for the emergency services

to enter the vehicle in an emergency.

As a safety precaution (with children on

board), remove the key from the ignition or

take the electronic key when leaving the

vehicle, even for a short time.

Remote control

Deadlocking

The high frequency remote control is

a sensitive system; do not operate it while

it is in your pocket as there is a possibility

that it may unlock the vehicle, without you

being aware of it.

Do not press the buttons of your remote

control out of range of your vehicle.

It might stop working. It will then be

necessary to reinitialise it again.

The remote control does not operate when

the key is in the ignition switch, even when

the ignition is switched off.

Deadlocking deactivates the exterior

and interior door controls, as well as the

central locking button on the dashboard.

The horn remains operational.

You must therefore never leave anyone

inside the vehicle when it is deadlocked.

Purchasing a second-hand vehicle

Have the key codes memorised by

a CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the

keys in your possession are the only ones

which can start the vehicle.

Electrical interference

The Keyless Entry and Starting electronic

key may not operate if close to certain

electronic devices: telephone, laptop

computer, strong magnetic fields, etc.
