REVERSING CAMERA
The reversing camera is activated
automatically when reverse gear is
engaged.
The image is displayed in the touch
screen  tablet.
The reversing camera function may be
completed
  with   parking   sensors.
The reversing camera cannot in
any circumstances be a substitute
for vigilance on the part of the
driver. High pressure jet washing
When washing your vehicle, do
not direct the lance within 30 cm of
the
  camera   lens.
The superimposed representation of
guide
  lines   helps   with   the   manoeuvre.
They
  are   represented   by   lines   marked  
"on the ground" and do not allow the
position of the vehicle to be determined
relative

  to   tall   obstacles   (for   example:  
other

  vehicles,   ...).
Some deformation of the image is
normal. The blue lines represent the general
direction of the vehicle (the difference
corresponds to the width of your
vehicle
  without   the   mirrors).
The red lines represent a distance of
about 30 cm beyond the edge of your
vehicle's
  rear   bumper.
The green lines represent distances of
about 1 and 2 metres beyond the edge
of
  your   vehicle's   rear   bumper.
The turquoise blue curves represent
the
  maximum   turning   circle.
Opening the tailgate causes the
display
  to   disappear.
Clean the reversing camera regularly
using
  a   soft,   dry   cloth.

ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM
(ABS / EBFD)
The ABS   and   EBFD   (electronic   brake  force distribution) systems improve the
stability and manoeuvrability of your
vehicle
  on   braking,   in   particular   on  
poor

  or   slippery   surfaces.
The
 
ABS
  prevents   locking   of   the  
wheels, the EBFD provides control of
the

  braking   pressure   wheel   by   wheel.If this warning lamp comes
on, accompanied by an
audible signal and a message
in the screen, it indicates a
malfunction of the ABS which
could result in a loss of control of the
vehicle
  on   braking.
If this warning lamp comes
on,
  together   with   the   brake  
and ST

OP warning lamps,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen, it indicates a malfunction of
the
  electronic   brake   force   distribution  
which could result in a loss of control of
the

  vehicle   on   braking.
EMERGENCY BRAKING
ASSIST

ANCE (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables
the  optimum   braking   pressure   to   be  
reached

  more   quickly,   press   the   pedal  
firmly

  without   releasing   it.
It is triggered by the speed at which the
brake
  pedal   is   pressed   down.
This
  alters   the   resistance   of   the   brake  
pedal

  under   your   foot.
To maintain operation of the
emergency
  braking   assistance   system:  
keep

  your   foot   on   the   brake   pedal.
Good practice
The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically when
there  is   a   risk   of   wheel   lock.   It   does   not  
reduce

  the   braking   distance.
On very slippery surfaces (ice,
oil, etc...)
  the  
ABS
  may   increase   the  
braking

  distance.   When   braking   in  
an emergency

, do not hesitate to
press
  the   brake   pedal   firmly,   without  
releasing the pressure, even on a
slippery surface, you will then be able
to continue to manoeuvre the vehicle
to

  avoid   an   obstacle.
Normal operation of the ABS may be
felt
  by   slight   vibration   of   the   brake  
pedal.
When changing wheels (tyres and
rims), ensure that these are listed by
CITROËN

  for   the   vehicle. Stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
In both cases, contact a CITROËN
dealer
  or   a   qualified   workshop.

ANTI-SLIP REGULATION (ASR)
AND

DYNAMIC STABILITY

CONTROL (DSC)
These systems are linked and complement  the  ABS.
The
ASR system is very useful for
maintaining optimum drive and
avoiding losses of control of the vehicle
on
  acceleration.
The system optimises drive to prevent
the
  wheels   skidding,   by   acting   on   the  
brakes

  of   the   drive   wheels   and   on   the  
engine.

  It   also   allows   the   directional  
stability of the vehicle to be improved
on

  acceleration.
Use the DSC to hold your course
without
  attempting   to   countersteer.
If there is a variation between the
trajectory
  followed   by   the   vehicle   and  
that required by the driver

, the DSC
system automatically acts on the
engine
  and   the   brake   of   one   or   more  
wheels,

  in   order   to   put   the   vehicle   back  
on

  course.
Deactivation
In certain exceptional conditions
(starting   the   vehicle   when   stuck   in   mud  
or

  snow,   or   on   loose   ground...),   it   could  
prove useful to deactivate the

ASR and
DSC
  systems   to   make   the   wheels   spin  
and

  regain   grip.
Operating fault
Good practice
The ASR/DSC   systems   offer   increased  safety during normal driving, but
should
  not   incite   the   driver   to   take   risks  
or

  to   drive   at   high   speed.
The operation of these systems is
ensured if the recommendations
of the manufacturer regarding
the wheels (tyres and rims), the
braking
  components,   the   electronic  
components

  and   the   fitting   and   repair  
procedures

  are   observed.
After an impact, have these systems
checked
  by   a   CITROËN   dealer   or   a  
qualified

  workshop.
Operation
The warning lamp flashes when operation of the ASR or
DSC
  is   triggered.
They engage again:
-

automatically above 30 mph

(50
 
km/h), When a malfunction of the
systems occurs, the warning
lamp and the LED come on,
accompanied by an audible
signal and a message in the
screen.
-

Press the button or turn
the dial to the DSC OFF
position (depending on
model).
-

 
The

 
LED   comes   on:   the  
ASR
  and  
DSC systems no longer come into
play

. -

manually by pressing the
button again or by turning
the dial to this position
(depending

  on   model).Contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
  workshop   to   have   the   system  
checked.
The warning lamp may also come on if
the

  tyres   are   under-inflated.   Check   the  
pressure

  of   each   tyre.

GRIP CONTROL
Correct use
Your vehicle is designed principally to
drive on tarmac roads but it allows you
to drive on other less passable terrain
occasionally.
However, particularly when your
vehicle is heavily laden, it does not
permit
  off-road   activities   such   as:
-

crossing and driving on ground
which could damage the underbody
or tear of

f components (fuel pipe,
fuel
  cooler,   ...),   particularly   by  
obstacles or stones,
-


driving on ground with steep
gradients and poor grip,
-

 
crossing
  a   stream.
On snow, mud or sand, traction control
is obtained by a compromise between
safety, grip, traction and appropriate
tyres.
It adapts to allows most conditions of
poor
 
grip
 
to
 
be
 
accommodated.
The accelerator pedal must be pressed
enough for there to be adequate
engine power to manage the various
parameters
 
in
 
the
 
best
 
way.

121
Berlingo2VP_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2016
Driving safely
Different modes
 
are
 
available:
Normal (ESC)
ESC OFF Snow
This mode allows the vehicle
to adapts its strategy to the
conditions of grip encountered
for each of the two front
wheels,
  on   moving   off.
When moving, the system optimises
wheelspin to provide the best
acceleration possible for the grip
available.
Off road
(mud, wet grass, ...)
When moving off, this
mode allows considerable
wheelspin on the wheel
with the least grip to favour
clearing of the mud and
regain
  "grip".
At the same time, the wheel with the
most grip is controlled in such a way as
to
 
transmit   as   much   torque   as   possible.
When moving, the system optimises
wheelspin to meet the driver's
requirements
  as   fully   as   possible.
Sand
This mode allows a little
wheelspin on the two driving
wheels at the same time to
allow the vehicle to move
forward  and   reduces   the   risk  
of

  getting   stuck   in   the   sand.
Do not use the other modes on sand
as
 
the
 
vehicle   may   become   stuck.
This mode is calibrated for a
low
 
level
 
of
 
skidding,
 
based
 
on dif

ferent conditions of grip
encountered
 
on
 
the
 
road.
When the ignition is switched off, the
system returns automatically to DSC
mode.
This mode is only suitable
for
 
specific
 
conditions
 
encountered when moving of

f
or
 
at
 
low
 
speed.
Above
 
30
 
mph
 
(50

ACTIVE CITY BRAKE
Active City Brake is a driving assistance system that aims to avoid
a frontal collision or reduce the speed
of an impact if the driver does not
react
  sufficiently   (inadequate   brake  
application).
This system is designed to
improve

  driving   safety.
It remains the driver's responsibility to
continuously monitor the state of the
traffic
  and   to   assess   the   distances   and  
relative

  speeds   of   other   vehicles.
Active
  City   Brake   can   in   no  
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance

  on   the   part   of   the   driver. Never
  look   at   the   laser   sensor  
through an optical instrument
(magnifying

  glass,   microscope...)  
at a distance of less than
10 centimetres:

  risk   of   eye   injury.Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top
of the windscreen, this system detects
a vehicle running in the same direction
or  stationary   ahead   of   your   vehicle.
When
  necessary,   the   vehicle's   braking  
system is operated automatically
to avoid a collision with the vehicle
ahead.
Automatic

  braking   occurs   later  
than if done by the driver

, so as
to intervene only when there is a
high
  risk   of   collision.
Conditions for activation
Active City Brake only operates if the following  conditions   are   met:
●
 
ignition
  on,
●
 
the
  vehicle   is   in   a   forward   gear,
●
 
speed
  is   between   about   3   and  
18 mph

  (5   and   30   km/h),
●
 
the
  braking   assistance   systems  
(ABS,

  EBFD,   emergency   braking  
assistance) are not faulty

,
●
 
the
  trajectory   control   systems  
(ASR, DSC) are not deactivated
or

faulty,
●
 
the
  vehicle   is   not   in   a   tight   corner,
●
 
the
  system   has   not   been   triggered  
during

  the   previous   10   seconds.

Driving safely
Operation
When your vehicle is too close to or
approaches the vehicle ahead too
quickly  the   system   automatically  
applies

  the   brakes   to   avoid   a   collision.
You are then alerted by the display of a
message.
The
  brake   lamps   on   your   vehicle   come  
on

  to   warn   other   road   users.
The collision can be avoided
automatically if the difference in
speed
between your vehicle and the
vehicle ahead does not exceed 9 mph
(15
  km/h).
Above this threshold, the system will
do what is possible to avoid or reduce
the accident by lowering the speed of
impact.
The
  automatic   braking   may   bring  
the vehicle to a complete stop if the
situation

  requires   it.
In this case, the vehicle is held
stationary temporarily (for about
1.5 seconds)
  to   allow   the   driver   to   take  
back

  control   by   pressing   the   brake  
pedal. The triggering of the system may
cause the engine to stall, unless
the driver depresses the clutch
pedal

  quickly   enough   during   automatic  
braking.
During

  automatic   braking,   the  
driver can always obtain a higher
rate of deceleration than that
controlled by the system, by pressing
firmly

  on   the   brake   pedal.
After an impact, the system is
automatically
  put   out   of   service:   it  
no

  longer   operates.
You must go to a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
  workshop   to   have   the   system  
made

  operational   again.
Operating limits
The system only detects vehicles that
are stationary or moving in the same
direction  as   your   vehicle.
It does not detect small vehicles
(bicycles, motorcycles),
pedestrians or animals, nor non-
reflective
  stationary   objects.
The system is not triggered or is
interrupted
  if   the   driver:
-

accelerates strongly
-


or turns the steering wheel
suddenly

  (avoiding   manoeuvre).
In
  difficult   weather   conditions   (very  
heavy

  rain,   snow,   fog,   hail...),  
braking

  distances   increase,   which  
can reduce the ability of the system to
avoid

  a   collision.
The driver must therefore remain
particularly
  vigilant.
Never leave accumulations of
snow
  or   any   object   projecting  
above the bonnet or in front of
the

  roof:   this   might   fall   into   the   field   of  
vision of the sensor and generate a
detection.

SEAT BELTS
Height adjustment
Squeeze the control with the return and
slide the assembly on the driver's seat
side and on the individual passenger
seat  side.
Fastening
Pull the strap, then insert the tongue
into  the   buckle.
Check
  that   the   seat   belt   is   fastened  
correctly

  by   pulling   the   strap.
Seat belt(s) not fastened
warning lamp Unfastening
Press the red button.
When the vehicle is started,
this warning lamp comes on
if a user at the front has not
fastened
  their   seat   belt.
Good practice
The driver must ensure that
passengers use the seat belts correctly
and that they are all strapped in
securely  before   moving   off.
Wherever you are seated in the
vehicle, always fasten your seat belt,
even
  for   short   journeys.
The
  seat   belts   are   fitted   with   an   inertia  
reel

  which   automatically   adjusts   the  
length

  of   the   strap   to   your   size.
Do not use accessories (clothes pegs,
clips,
  safety   pins,   etc.)   which   allow   the  
seat

  belt   straps   to   fit   loosely.
Ensure that the seat belt has reeled in
correctly
  after   use.
After folding or moving a seat or a rear
bench seat, ensure that the seat belt
has reeled in correctly and that the
buckle
  is   ready   to   accommodate   the  
tongue.
Depending on the nature and
seriousness of any impact, the
pretensioning device may be deployed
before

  and   independently   of   inflation  
of

  the   airbags.   It   instantly   tightens  
the seat belts against the body of the
occupants.
Deployment of the pretensioners is
accompanied by a slight discharge
of

  harmless   smoke   and   a   noise,   due  
to the activation of the pyrotechnic
cartridge

  incorporated   in   the   system.
The front passenger's seat may be
fitted
