Anti-theft protection
Electronic engine immobiliser
The key contains an electronic chip
which has a special code. When the
ignition is switched on, this code must
be recognised in order for starting to be
possible.
This electronic engine immobiliser locks
the engine management system a few
minutes after the ignition is switched off
and prevents starting of the engine by
anyone who does not have the key.
In the event of a malfunction,
you are informed by lighting
of this warning lamp, an au-
dible signal and a message
on the multifunction screen.
In this case, your vehicle does not start;
contact a CITROËN dealer as soon as
possible.
