Motoring & the Environment
Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap02_eco-conduite_ed02-2015
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest
items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the
rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind
resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...).
Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your
summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to
the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
-
before a long journey
,
-

at each change of season,
-


after a long period out of use.
d

on't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or
caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil
filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter...) and
observe the schedule of operations recommended in the
manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is
faulty your vehicle becomes polluting; go to a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop without delay to have the
emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of
the nozzle to avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first
1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel
consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Access
Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap03_Pret-a-partir_ed02-2015
In practice
It is possible to drive with the right-
hand door open to make it easier to
carry long loads. The left-hand door is
kept closed by the distinctive "yellow"
lock, positioned at the base of the door.
This closed door must not be used as
a load retainer.
d
riving with the right-hand door open
is a special dispensation. Comply with
the usual safety indications to warn
other drivers.
HINGED REAR DOORS
From outside
Pull the lever to open the right-hand
door.
To close, start with the right-hand door
then close the left-hand door.
To open, pull the handle towards you. The hinged rear doors are
asymmetrical (2/3 - 1/3), with the
smaller door on the right.
They are fitted with a central lock. With the roof rear flap, the rear
bumper has been reinforced to
serve as a footrest when entering
the vehicle.
Take care when a trailer is
attached to the towball; opening
the side-hinged rear doors may
not be possible. You may have to
detach the trailer.

Activation / DeactivationMalfunction
In the event of a malfunction, the LED
in the button comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message in
the screen.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or qualified
workshop.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
The system will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
or if a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle
fitted with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended by CITROËN).
You can activate or deactivate
the system by pressing this
button.
The activation or deactivation
of the system is stored when
the vehicle stops.
The parking sensor system
cannot, in any circumstances,
take the place of the vigilance and
responsibility of the driver.
Engage forward gear
In addition to the rear parking sensors,
the front parking sensors are triggered
when an obstacle is detected in
front of the vehicle and the speed
of the vehicle remains below 6 mph
(10
km/h).The tone from the speaker (front
or rear) allows an obstacle to be
identified as either in front of or
behind the vehicle.
Stop the assistance
Change to neutral. You are advised to deactivate
the system if your vehicle is fitted
with a rear ladder or if you are
transporting a load which exceeds
the length of the vehicle.

signal and the display of the message
"Automatic braking system fault".
Have the system checked by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
In the event of an impact to
the windscreen at the sensor,
deactivate the system and contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop

to
have your windscreen
replaced.
Never try to remove, adjust or test
the sensor.

Towing a trailer
Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap06_accessoire_ed02-2015
For more information about
weights and towed loads, refer to
chapter 9, "Weights" section.
TOWING A TRAILER , A CARA VAN ...
Distribution of loads
d

istribute the load in the trailer so
that the heaviest objects are as
close as possible to the axle and
the nose weight is close to the
maximum authorised without, however,
exceeding it.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases
the coolant temperature.a s the fan is electrically controlled, its
cooling capacity is not dependent on
the engine speed.
You should therefore use a high gear
to lower the engine speed and reduce
your speed.
In all cases, pay attention to the
coolant temperature.
Driving advice
A towed vehicle must free wheel:
gearbox in neutral.

Towing a trailer
Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap06_accessoire_ed02-2015
Good Practice
In certain cases of particularly arduous
use (towing the maximum load up a
steep slope in high temperatures), the
engine automatically limits its power.
In this case, the air conditioning is
automatically cut off to save engine
power.
Tyres
Check the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer, observing the
recommended pressures. Chapter 7, "Levels" section.If the coolant temperature
warning lamp comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch off the
engine as soon as possible. Brakes
Towing increases the braking distance.
Drive at a moderate speed, change
down early and brake gradually.
Towbar
We recommend the use of genuine
CITR
o Ë n towbars and their wiring
harnesses, which have been tested
and approved from the design stage of
your vehicle, and that you entrust the
fitting of this equipment to a CITROËN
dealer.
If this equipment is not fitted by a
CITROËN dealer, it is imperative that
it is fitted using the electrical pre-
equipment installed at the rear of the
vehicle and in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions.
In accordance with the general
instructions a reminder of which has
been given above, we draw your
attention to the risk associated with
fitting a towbar or electrical accessory
not recommended by CITROËN.
Fitting such equipment could result in
the failure of your vehicle's electronic
system. Please obtain information from
the Manufacturer before fitting this type
of equipment.
Side wind
Sensitivity to side wind is increased.
Drive smoothly and at a moderate
speed.
ABS/DSC
The ABS or DSC systems only control
the vehicle, not the trailer or caravan.
Parking sensors
The rear parking sensors system does
not function while the vehicle is towing.
