pocket as there is a possibility that 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. You run the risk of stopping it from working and the remote control would have

to be reinitialised.

The remote control does not operate when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the

ignition is switched off, except for reinitialisation.

emergency services more difficult in an emergency.

As a safety precaution (with children on board), remove the key from the ignition switch

when you leave the vehicle, even for a short time.

Anti-theft protection

Do not make any modifications to the electronic engine immobiliser system; this could

cause malfunctions.

When purchasing a second-hand vehicle

Have the pairing of all of the keys in your possession checked by a CITROËN dealer,

to ensure that only your keys can be used to open and start the vehicle.
