dipped beam headlamps, number plate

lamps and door mirror spotlamps come on for 30

seconds.

period switches oﬀ the lamps immediately.

Driving with the doors locked could make

it more diﬃcult for the emergency services

to enter the passenger compartment in an

emergency.

when leaving the vehicle, even for a short

time.

Advice

Remote control

The remote control is a sensitive, high-

frequency device; avoid handling it in your

pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally

unlocking the vehicle.

Avoid pressing the remote control buttons

while out of range of the vehicle, due to

the risk of rendering the remote control

inoperative. It would then be necessary to

reset it.

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 able to

start the vehicle.

Zone A: welcome lighting on approaching

the vehicle (between 3 and 5 metres from the

vehicle).

Zone B: automatic locking on moving away from

the vehicle (about 2 metres from the vehicle).

Zone C: automatic unlocking on approaching

the vehicle (between 1 and 2 metres from the

vehicle).
