Starting and switching off
HILL START ASSIST
This system (also called HHC - Hill Holder
Control), linked to the dynamic
stability
control system, makes hill
starts easier and is activated in the
following
conditions:
-
the
vehicle must be stationary,
engine
running, foot on the brake,
-
the
gradient of the road must be
steeper than 5%,
-
uphill,
the gearbox must be in
neutral or in a gear other than
reverse,
-
downhill,
reverse gear must be
engaged.
The
Hill Start
Assist
system is a driving
aid.
It is not an automatic vehicle
parking
function or an automatic
parking
brake.
Operation
With the brake pedal and clutch pedal pressed, from the time you release
the
brake pedal, without using the
parking
brake, you have approximately
2 seconds
to move off before the
vehicle
starts to roll back.
During
the moving off phase, the
function
is deactivated automatically,
gradually
releasing the braking
pressure.
During this phase, the
characteristic
noise of mechanical
release
of the brakes may be heard,
indicating
the imminent movement of
the
vehicle.
Operating fault
Hill start assist is deactivated in the
following situations:
-
when the clutch pedal is released,
-
when
the parking brake is applied,
-
when the engine is switched of
f,
-
when
the engine stalls.
If
a malfunction of the
system
occurs, this
warning
lamp comes on
accompanied
by an audible
signal
and confirmed by
a
message in the screen. Have the
system
checked by 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
d SC 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 d SC
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 a
SR 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 a SR 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
d SC o FF
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 CITR
o Ë n 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.

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.

Towing a trailer
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.
Chapter
7, "Levels" section.
If
the coolant temperature
warning
lamp comes on, stop
the vehicle and switch of
f 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 CITRo 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

ABS/DSC
The
ABS

systems
only
control
the
vehicle,
not
the
trailer
or
caravan.
Parking sensors
The

Checks
Good practice
Bleeding water from the Diesel
filter
Manual gearbox
Have the level checked in accordance with the
manufacturer's servicing schedule.
In order to avoid damaging the electrical units, we strongly
advise you not to use high
pressure washing to clean the engine
compartment.
After
washing the vehicle dampness,
or
in
winter, ice may form on the brake
discs
and pads: braking efficiency may
be
reduced. Make some light brake
applications to dry and de-ice the
brakes.
If
this
warning
lamp
comes
on,
bleed
the
filter.
Otherwise
bleed
regularly
each
time
the
engine
oil
is
changed.
H
d
i engines use advanced
technology.
All
work
requires
special training, so should be
entrusted
to
a
CITROËN
dealer.
Depending
on
country
of
sale.
To drain the water, unscrew the bleed
screw
located
on
the
filter.
o
perate until all of the water no longer
flows
in
the
transparent
pipe,
then
tighten
the
bleed
screw.
Only use products recommended by
CITR
o Ë n or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In
order to optimise the operation
of
units as important as the braking
system,
CITROËN selects and offers
specific
products.
