Citroen C3: Remote control / Key / Locating the vehicle. Advice
Locating the vehicle
This function helps you to spot your vehicle from
a distance, with the vehicle locked:
- The sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps
come on for 30 seconds.
Press this button.
Pressing again before the end of the timed
period switches off the lamps immediately.
Advice
Remote control
The remote control is a sensitive, highfrequency
device; avoid handling it in your
pocket, due to the risk of unintentionally
unlocking the vehicle.
Avoid pressing the remote control buttons
while out of range of the vehicle, due to
the risk of rendering the remote control
inoperative. It would then be necessary to
reset it.
The remote control does not work when the
key is in the ignition switch, even when the
ignition is switched off.
Anti-theft protection
Do not modify the electronic vehicle
immobiliser, as this might result in
malfunctions.
Locking the vehicle
Driving with the doors locked could make
it more difficult for the emergency services to
enter the vehicle in an emergency.
Purchasing a
second-hand vehicle
Have the key codes memorised by a
CITROËN dealer, to ensure that the keys in
your possession are the only ones able to
start the vehicle.
Unlocking the vehicle
Press this button to unlock
the vehicle.
When the unlocking button is pressed, the
flashing of the direction indicators for a few
