Interference

Interference by factors in the imme-

diate vicinity (external installations or

the use of equipment operating on the

same frequency as the remote control)

may affect the operation of the remote

KEY, RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL: general information

(2/2)

For replacement, or if you

require an additional remote

control.

You must only contact an approved

Dealer.

cle and the remote control are

needed to initialise the system.

– Depending on the vehicle, you

have the option of using up to

four remote controls.

Remote control unit failure
Make sure that the correct battery

type is being used, and that the bat-

tery is in good condition and inser-

ted correctly. These batteries have

a service life of approximately two

years.

To learn how to change the battery,

please refer to the information on

the “Key, radio frequency remote

control: Batteries” in Section 5.

1.19

KEY, RADIO FREQUENCY REMOTE CONTROL: Use

(1/2)

The doors are locked and unlocked

It is powered by a battery which must

be replaced (refer to the information on

the “Key, radio frequency remote con-

trol: batteries” in Section 5).

Locking the doors

Remote control A or B

child or adult who is not self-suffi-

cient alone in your vehicle, even for

a short time.
They may pose a risk to themselves

or to others by starting the engine,

activating equipment such as the

electric windows or locking the

doors, for example.
Also, in hot and/or sunny weather,

ture inside the passenger compart-

ment increases very quickly.
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS

INJURY.

from a bottle, etc.).

Note: unlocking the opening elements

will unlock the vehicle charging cord.

1.21

DEADLOCKING

Never use deadlocking if

someone is still inside the

vehicle.

If fitted to the vehicle, this allows the

doors to be locked and prevents them

from being opened with the interior

handles (for example, by breaking the

window and then trying to open the

doors from the inside).

To activate deadlocking

sion.

The side indicator lights and hazard

warning lights flash five times to indi-

cate that the doors have locked.

dicator lights flash once to indicate that

the doors have unlocked.

Special feature

For vehicles equipped with deadlock-

ing, when the vehicle is charging, every

time one of the doors is unlocked,

opened or closed, check that charging

is still in progress.
If not, the charging process needs to

be restarted (connecting the cord, pro-

gramming, etc.). Refer to the paragraph

“Electric vehicle: charging” in section 1.

1.22

With the ignition on, the warning light

integrated in switch 1 informs you of the

locking status of the opening elements:

– indicator light on, the doors and tail-

gate are locked;

unlocked.

When you lock the doors, the indicator

light remains lit and then goes out.

Control for locking and

the end of the key) and close the door.

This means that the doors are then

locked from the outside.

The doors may then only be opened

from inside the vehicle or with the key

Sliding side door (fuel filler cap

side)
To prevent the door striking the fuel

filler nozzle, a mechanical system locks

it when the fuel filler flap is open.
When the fuel tank has been filled, re-

AUTOMATIC LOCKING WHEN DRIVING (RAID)

Operating principle

When the engine is started, the system

automatically locks the doors when the

vehicle reaches a speed of approxi-

mately 4 mph (7 km/h).

Operating faults

If you notice an operating fault (auto-

matic locking impossible), first check

that all doors are correctly locked. If

they are correctly locked and the fault

is still present, contact an approved

Dealer.
Also make sure that locking has not

been inadvertently deactivated.
If necessary, refer to the activation pro-

cedure.

Nothing should be placed on the floor (area in front of driver) as such objects may

slide under the pedal during braking manoeuvres, thus obstructing its use.

feres with the moving parts and their

locking.

For safety reasons, carry

out any adjustments when

the vehicle is not being

driven.
