If the remote control or, depending on the vehicle, the “hands-free” card does not work

In some cases, the radio frequency remote control or the “Hands-free” card may not work:

- “hands-free” card or radio frequency remote control battery worn or run flat, vehicle battery flat, etc.

- use of appliances operating on the same frequency as the card (mobile phone, etc.);

- vehicle located in a high electromagnetic radiation zone.

It is then possible:

- depending on the vehicle, use the radio frequency remote control or the emergency key integrated in the card to unlock the front left-hand door;

- to lock each of the doors manually;

- to use the interior door locking/unlocking control (refer to the following pages).

The card’s built-in key

The integrated key 2 can be used to lock or unlock the front left-hand door if the “hands-free” card does not work.

Access with key 2

Slide the rear casing 1 downwards while pressing on zone A.

Using the “hands-free” card integrated key

- Insert the tip of the key 2 into the notch 3 at the bottom of the cover B on the front left-hand door;

- Move it upwards to remove the cover B;

- Insert the key 2 into the lock and lock or unlock the front left-hand door.

Once you are inside the vehicle, put the key back in its casing in the “hands-free” card.

Vehicles with key/remote control

Using the key

Insert the key 5 into the lock 4 and lock or unlock the front left-hand door.

Locking the doors manually

Turn screw 6 with the door open (using 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 the inside or by using the key in the front left-hand door.

Interior locking/unlocking door control

Switch 7 controls the doors, the boot and the fuel filler flap simultaneously.

If a door or the tailgate is open or not closed properly, the doors and tailgate lock/unlock quickly.

If transporting an object with the tailgate open, you can still lock the doors: with the engine stopped, press and hold switch 7 for more than five seconds to lock the other doors.

Locking the opening elements without the “hands-free” card or the key

For example, in the event of a discharged battery or the “hands-free” card or key temporarily not working, etc.

With the engine switched off and a door or tailgate open, press and hold switch 7 for more than five seconds.

When the door is closed, all the doors and the tailgate will be locked.

Unlocking the vehicle from the outside is only possible if the “hands-free” card is located in the vehicle’s access zone or by using the key.

Door and tailgate status indicator

When the ignition is on, the indicator light integrated in switch 7 informs you of the status of the doors and tailgate:

- indicator light on, the doors and tailgate are locked;

- indicator light off, the doors and tailgate are unlocked.

When you lock the doors from the outside, the indicator light remains lit for a moment, and then goes out.

Never leave your vehicle with the key or “hands-free” card inside.

Driver’s responsibility

If you decide to keep the doors locked when you are driving, remember that it may be more difficult for those assisting you to gain access to the passenger compartment in the event of an emergency.
