Berlingo-2-VP_en_Chap06_accessoire_ed01-2016
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 off to save engine
power
.
Tyres
Check
the tyre pressures of the towing
vehicle and of the trailer
, observing the
recommended
pressures.
