Remote Control; Anti-Theft Protection - PEUGEOT 208 Handbook

Lost keys
Go to a PEUGEOT dealer with the vehicle's
registration document, your personal
identification documents and if possible the
key code label.
The PEUGEOT dealer will be able to look
up the key code and the transponder code
required to order a new key.

Remote control

The high frequency remote control is a
sensitive system; do not operate it while it is
in your 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.
No remote control can operate when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when
the ignition is switched off, except for
reinitialisation.

Anti-theft protection

Do not make any modifications to the
electronic engine immobiliser system; this
could cause malfunctions.
Locked 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, never leave children
alone in the vehicle, except for a very short
period.
In all cases, it is essential to remove the key
from the ignition switch when leaving the
vehicle.

Access and starting
Second-hand vehicle
Have the pairing of all of the keys in your
possession checked by a PEUGEOT dealer,
to ensure that only your keys can be used to
open and start the vehicle.
