Unlocking the vehicle
► With the electronic key on your person in
recognition zone A, pass your hand behind the
door handle of one of the front doors, or press
the tailgate opening control.
The flashing of the direction indicators for
a few seconds signals:
– the unlocking of the vehicle for versions
without alarm.
– the deactivation of the alarm for other
versions.
Locking the vehicle
Normal locking
► With the electronic key in the recognition
zone, press with a finger or thumb on one of the
front door handles (at the markings) to lock the
vehicle.
It is not possible to lock the vehicle if one of the
keys is left inside the vehicle.
The illumination of the direction
indicators for a few seconds signals:
– The locking of the vehicle for versions
without alarm.
– activation of the alarm for other versions.
For safety and theft protection reasons,
never leave the electronic key in the
vehicle, even when you are close to it. It is
recommended that you keep it on your
person.
Accumulations (water, dust, grime, salt,
etc.) on the inner surface of the door
handle may affect detection.
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.
Deadlocking
Deadlocking renders the interior door
controls inoperative. It also deactivates
the central locking button.
The horn remains operational.
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle when it
is deadlocked.
► With the electronic key in recognition zone
A , press your finger or thumb on the handle of
one of the front doors (at the markings) to lock
the vehicle.
► Within five seconds, press the front door
handle again to deadlock 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, central locking will be disabled.
However, if the vehicle is fitted with an alarm,
it will be activated after 45 seconds.
If the vehicle is unlocked but the doors or
boot are not subsequently opened, the
vehicle will automatically lock itself again after
about 30 seconds. If the vehicle is fitted with
an alarm, it will also be reactivated
automatically.
As a safety measure, never leave the
vehicle, even for a short time, without
taking the Keyless Entry and Starting
system’s electronic key with you.
Be aware of the risk of theft of the vehicle if
the key is present in one of the defined areas
while the vehicle is unlocked.
To preserve the battery charge in the
electronic key and the vehicle's battery,
the "hands-free" functions are set to
hibernation mode 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.
For more information on starting with the
Keyless Entry and Starting system, refer to
the corresponding section.
