18 Access Locking the vehicle
Normal locking ► Press the locking button. The locking, and the activation of the alarm depending on version, is confirmed by the lighting of the direction indicators. An access (door or boot) that is not properly closed prevents locking of the vehicle. 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 be reactivated automatically. Locating your vehicle This function allows you to identify your vehicle from a distance, particularly in poor light. Your vehicle must be locked. ► Press the closed padlock button on the remote control. This will switch on the courtesy lights and the direction indicators will flash for a few seconds. 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. The remote control does not work when the key is in the ignition switch, even when the ignition is switched off. Anti-theft protection Do not modify the electronic vehicle immobiliser, as this might result in malfunctions. Locking the vehicle Driving with the doors locked could make it more difficult for the emergency services to enter the passenger compartment in an emergency. As a safety precaution, remove the key from the ignition when leaving the vehicle, even for a short time. 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. Central locking
