Citroen C3: Driving recommendations / Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The keys include an electronic engine
immobiliser system, whose secret code must be
recognised in order for starting to be possible.
If the system malfunctions, indicated by the
display of a message, the engine will not start.
Contact a CITROËN dealer.
For safety and theft
protection reasons,
do not leave your electronic key in the
vehicle, even when you are close to it.

requires extra care from the driver.
Respect the maximum
towable weights...
