If the remote control or, depending on the vehicle, the card does not work

In some cases, the radio frequency remote control or the card may not work:

  • card or radio frequency remote control battery flat, vehicle battery discharged, etc.;
  • use of appliances operating on the same frequency as the card (mobile phone, etc.);
  • the vehicle is 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;

The built-in key 2 can be used to lock or unlock the driver's door when the card is not working.

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

Using the key integrated in the card

  • Insert the end 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 then lock or unlock the front left-hand door.

Once you are inside the vehicle, put the key back in its casing in the 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

With the door open, turn the screw 6 (using the end of the key) and close the door.

This means that the door is 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

The switch 7 controls the doors, the luggage compartment door and the fuel filler flap simultaneously.

If a door or the boot is open or not properly shut, locking is not carried out. A beep sounds and the hazard warning lights and side repeaters do not flash.

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

Locking the opening elements without the card or the key

For example, in the event of a discharged battery or the card or key temporarily not working etc.

With the ignition off and a door or the luggage compartment open, press and hold switch 7.

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

Unlocking the vehicle from the outside is only possible with the card in the vehicle 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 locking status of the opening elements:

  • when the warning light is on, the doors and luggage compartment door 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.

warning

Never leave your vehicle with the key or 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.
