Motoring & the Environment
Berlingo-2-VP_en_Chap02_eco-conduite_ed02-2015
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and Co
2 emissions.
Eco-driving
Optimise the use of your gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up without waiting. During acceleration change up early.
With
an automatic or electronic gearbox, give preference
to
automatic mode and avoid pressing the accelerator
pedal
heavily or suddenly.
The
gear shift indicator invites you engage the most
suitable
gear: as soon as the indication is displayed in the
instrument
panel, follow it straight away.
For
vehicles fitted with an electronic or automatic gearbox,
this
indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine
braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the
accelerator
progressively.
These
practices contribute
towards
a
reduction
in
fuel
consumption
and
CO2 emissions and
also
helps
reduce
the
background
traffic
noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is
flowing
well.
Control the use of your electrical
equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents
before
using the air conditioning.
Above
30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the
air
vents open.
Remember
to make use of equipment that can help keep
the
temperature in the passenger compartment down
(sunroof
and window blinds...).
Switch
off the air conditioning, unless it has automatic
regulation,
as soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch
off the demisting and defrosting controls, if not
automatic.
Switch
off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch
off the headlamps and front foglamps when the
level
of light does not require their use.
Avoid
running the engine before moving off, particularly in
winter;
your vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.
As
a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia
devices
(film, music, video game...), you will contribute
towards
limiting the consumption of electrical energy, and
so
of fuel.
Disconnect
your portable devices before leaving the vehicle.

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the

Operation
depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may
advise you to skip one (or more)
gear(s).
Y
ou can follow this instruction
without
engaging the intermediate
gears.
The
gear engagement
recommendations
must not be
considered
compulsory. In fact, the
configuration
of the road, the amount
of
traffic and safety remain determining
factors when choosing the best
gear
.
Therefore,
the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or
not to follow the advice given by the
system.
This
function cannot be deactivated.

STOP & START
The Stop & Start system puts the engine
temporarily on standby - STOP mode
- during stops in the traffic (red
lights,
traffic jams, or other...).
The
engine
restarts automatically - START
mode
- as soon as you want to move
of
f.
The
restart takes place instantly,
quickly
and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system
reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust
emissions as well as the noise
level
when stationary.
Operation
Going into engine STOP mode
The "ECO" warning lamp comes on
in the instrument panel and the
engine goes into standby:
- with a manual gearbox , at speeds
below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you
put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,
-
with
a 6-speed electronic
gearbox,
at speeds below 5 mph
(8
km/h), when you press the brake
pedal or put the gear lever into
position
N. If
your vehicle is fitted with the system,
a
time counter calculates the sum of
the
periods in STOP
mode during a
journey
. It rests itself to zero every time
the
ignition is switched on with the key.
With a 6-speed electronic
gearbox,
for your comfort during
parking
manoeuvres, STOP
mode
is not available for a few seconds after
coming
out of reverse gear.
STOP
mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as
braking,
power steering, for example.
n
ever refuel with the engine in
STOP
mode; you must switch off
the
ignition with the key.Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP
mode is not invoked when:
-
the driver's door is open,
-
the driver's seat belt is not
fastened,
-
the vehicle has not exceeded
6 mph
(10 km/h) since the last
engine
start using the key,
-
the
engine is needed to maintain
a
comfortable temperature in the
passenger
compartment,
-
demisting
is on,
-
some
special conditions (battery
charge,
engine temperature,
braking
assistance, ambient
temperature...)
where the engine
is needed to assure control of a
system.
In this case, the
"ECO"
warning lamp flashes for a
few
seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.

a manual gearbox in STOP
mode,
if a gear is engaged without
fully depressing the clutch pedal, a
warning
lamp comes on or a message
is
displayed asking you to depress the
clutch
pedal to restart the engine.Special cases: START invoked

Maintenance
Before working under the bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start system
to
avoid any risk of injury resulting
from
automatic operation of START
mode.
This
system requires a specific
battery
with a special specification
and
technology (reference numbers
available
from a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop).
Fitting a battery not listed by
CITROËN introduces
the risk of
malfunction
of the system.
The
Stop & Start system makes
use
of advanced technology.
All
work
on this type of battery must
be done only by a CITR
