Only use batteries which are identical or of an equivalent type to those recommended by a PEUGEOT dealer. Take used batteries to an approved collection point.

Accesses

ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER

All of the keys contain an electronic

CONFIDENTIAL CARD

immobiliser device. This device locks the engine supply system.

It is activated automatically when the key is removed from the ignition.

After the ignition is switched on, a dialogue is established between the key and the electronic immobiliser system.

This warning light is switched off after the ignition is switched on and the key has been recognised, the engine can be started.

If the key is not recognised, the engine cannot be started. Use another key and have the faulty key checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

Make a careful note of the number of the keys. If they are lost, your PEUGEOT dealer will be able to carry out his work more quickly and effectively if you give him this number and the confidential card.

Do not make any modifications to the electronic immobiliser system.

Operating the remote control, even when it is in your pocket, may result in involuntary unlocking of the doors.

However, if none of the doors is opened within approximately thirty seconds following unlocking, the doors relock automatically.

The simultaneous use of other high frequency equipment (mobile telephones, domestic alarms…), may interfere with the operation of the remote control temporarily.

The remote control does not operate while the key is in the ignition, even if the ignition is off, except for reinitialisation.

When purchasing a second-hand vehicle:

- ensure that you are given the confidential card,

- have the keys memorised by a PEUGEOT dealer to ensure that the keys in your possession are the only ones which can start the vehicle.

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 when leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.

This is given to you on delivery of your vehicle with the duplicate keys.

It contains the identification code necessary for any work carried out by a PEUGEOT dealer on the electronic immobiliser system. This code is hidden by a film, which should be removed only if necessary.

Keep your card in a safe place, never inside the vehicle.

When undertaking a long trip or journey, however, it is advisable to take it with you along with your personal papers.

Accesses

While the alarm is monitoring, any intrusion triggers the siren for approximately 30 seconds, accompanied by lighting of the direction indicators.

The alarm then returns to monitoring mode but the triggering event is stored and is indicated by rapid flashing of the diode, if the alarm is deactivated.

The alarm is also triggered following an electrical supply cut-off, when the supply is restored.

- anti-lift protection.

The equipment also includes a siren and

a diode which can be seen from outside, indicating the three possible statuses of the alarm:

- alarm activated (monitoring), slow flashing of the red diode,

- alarm not activated (not monitoring), diode off,

- alarm triggered (intrusion signal), rapid flashing of the red diode when the vehicle is unlocked.

First ensure that all of the accesses are closed correctly.

The alarm is activated by pressing this padlock, the protection is active after a few seconds.

Depending on the country in which the vehicle is sold: this function activates monitoring automatically approximately 2 minutes after the last door is closed. To avoid triggering the alarm when opening a door, the unlocking button on the remote control must be pressed again.

Unlock the doors using the key and enter the vehicle. Switch on the ignition, identification of the key code will switch off the alarm.

When this button (cab and key) is pressed, the alarm is deactivated when the vehicle is unlocked.

Press this button to deactivate the protection (for example when the vehicle is being towed with the alarm set).

The protection remains active until the central unlocking of the doors is activated.

To deactivate the siren quickly following unwanted triggering:

- switch on the ignition, identification of

the key code will switch off the alarm,

- press the unlocking button (cab and key)

on the remote control.
