LOCATIONS FOR CHILD SEATS ISOFIx
* In the 7 seat version, all three seats in row 2 must be present when child
seats
are installed.
**
A
child seat with support leg must
never be installed on an outer
passenger seat in row 2, unless you
are able to install it in line with the
recommendations under "Installing a
child
seat with a support leg".
In accordance with European regulations, this table indicates the option\
s for the installation of ISOFIX child seats on the
vehicle
seats fitted with ISOFIX mountings.
In the case of the universal and semi-universal ISOFIX child seats, the \
child seat's ISOFIX size category, determined by a
letter from A to G, is indicated on the child seat next to the logo ISOFIX.

For more information about
weights and towed loads, refer to
chapter 9, "Weights" section.
TOWING A TRAILER , A CARA VAN ...
Distribution of loads
Distribute 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. As 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.

Berlingo2VP_en_Chap06_Accessoire_ed02-2016
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 of
f 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
CITROËN 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.

If you have to remove / refit the engine style cover, handle it with
care
to avoid damaging the fixing
clips.
Oil level
It is recommended that the oil level be
checked every 3 000 miles (5 000 km)
and topped up if necessary between oil
changes.
Check
the level with the vehicle level,
engine
cold, using the dipstick.
Dipstick
Viscosity selection
In all cases, the oil selected must
meet
the requirements specified in the
manufacturer's
service schedule.
These regular maintenance
operations
will keep your vehicle

FITTING THE WHEEL
TRIM
The tyre valve must be centred in the
wheel
trim cut-out.
This
position is essential for fitting the
wheel
trim correctly on the steel wheel.
(If
the valve is not correctly aligned with
the cut-out, the anti-rotation system
will be in contact with the heads of the
wheel
bolts and risks being damaged
if
the user persists in fitting the wheel
trim
in this incorrect position). -
Ensure that all of the clips are
engaged except the last one
(opposite
the valve hole).
-
Strike
the wheel trim with the palm
of your hand, opposite the valve
in
the area of the last fixing clip
(always
in the direction of clipping).
-
Ensure that the outer edge of
the wheel trim is not deformed or
pushed
into the wheel:
●
Correct
position for the edge of
the
wheel trim.
●
Incorrect
position for the edge of
the
wheel trim.
Refer to the "Instruments and
controls" section of chapter 3,
"Tyre
under-inflation
detection"
part, for recommendations after
changing
a
wheel
fitted
with
a
tyre
under-inflation
detection
sensor.
Refer
to
the
"Identification
markings"
section
of
chapter
9
to
locate
the
tyre
label.
6. Refitting the repaired wheel
The wheel is refitted as described in step 5, not forgetting to refit the wheel
trim.

ENGINE CHARACTERISTICS
The engine characteristics (capacity,
maximum power, maximum power
speed, fuel, CO
2 emissions...) for your vehicle are given in the registration
certificate.
These characteristics correspond
to the values type-approved
on a test bed, under conditions
defined
in
European legislation
(Directive 1999/99/EC).
For more information, refer to the
manufacturer's website or sales
brochure
for
the
model. Contact
a
CITROËN
dealer or a qualified
workshop.
WEIGHTS AND TOWED LOADS
These values, expressed in kg, can be found on the manufacturer's VIN plate
or
label.
The maximum weights and towed
loads for your vehicle can be found on
the
vehicle's registration certificate.
The
kerb weight is equal to the weight
without
load + driver (75 kg) + fuel tank
filled
to 90%.
The GTW and towed load values
indicated are valid up to a maximum
altitude
of 1000 metres.
The
value of
the towed load mentioned must be
reduced by 10 % for each additional
1000
metres.
With
load transfer, the braked trailer
weight can be increased, on condition
that the equivalent of this load is
removed from the vehicle so that the
GTW
is not exceeded. High ambient temperatures
may result in a reduction in the
performance of the vehicle in
order
to protect the engine. When the
ambient temperature is higher than
37 °C,
limit the towed weight.
Towing with a lightly loaded
vehicle can adversely affect road
holding.
Towing
a trailer increases braking
distances.
When towing, the maximum permitted
speed is reduced (comply with the
legislation
in force in the country).
The recommended nose weight is
the downward force on the towball
(removable
with or without tools).
GVW: gross vehicle weight, the
maximum
authorised weight.
GTW: gross train weight, the maximum
weight
for vehicle plus trailer.
The location of the manufacturer's
plate is given in chapter 9,
"Identification
markings" section.
In each country, it is imperative that
the maximum towed loads authorised
by local legislation are complied
with.
T
o find out your vehicle's towing
capacities and its gross train weight,
consult
a CITROËN dealer.
