Emergency procedures
Lost keys, remote control,
electronic key
Visit a CITROËN dealer with the vehicle's
registration certificate, your personal
identification documents and if possible, the
label bearing the key code.
The CITROËN dealer will be able to retrieve the
key code and the transponder code required to
order a new key.
Electrical interference
Remote control
The Keyless Entry and Starting electronic
key may not operate if close to certain
electronic devices: telephone, laptop
computer, strong magnetic fields, etc.
The high frequency remote control is a
sensitive system; do not handle it in your
pocket as it may unlock the vehicle without
you being aware of it.
Do not repeatedly press the buttons of your
remote control out of range and out of sight
of your vehicle. The remote control may stop
working and need to be reinitialised.
The remote control does not operate when
the key is in the ignition, even when the
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not make any modifications to the
electronic vehicle immobiliser system as this
could cause malfunctions.
For vehicles with an ignition switch, do
not forget to remove the key and turn the
steering to engage the steering lock.
Locking the vehicle
Complete unlocking/locking
of the vehicle with the key
Driving with the doors locked may make
access to the passenger compartment by
the emergency services more difficult in an
emergency.
As a safety precaution (with children on
board), remove the key from the ignition or
take the electronic key when you leave the
vehicle, even for a short time.
Use these procedures in the following cases:
-
-
-
remote control cell battery flat,
remote control fault,
vehicle in an area subject to strong
electromagnetic interference.
In the first case, you can also replace the
remote control cell battery.
In the second case, you can also reinitialise the
remote control.
Refer to the corresponding sections.
