FUEL GAUGEC OOLANT   TEMPERATURE
The needle is positioned before the 
red zone: normal operation.
In arduous conditions of use or hot 
climatic conditions, the needle may 
move close to the red graduations.What you should do if the needle 
enters the red zone:
Reduce your speed or let the engine 
run at idle.
What you should do if the warning 
lamp comes on:
-
 
stop immediately
 , switch off the 
ignition. The fan may continue to 
operate for a certain time, up to 
approximately 10 minutes,
-  
wait for the engine to cool down in 
order to check the coolant level and 
top it up if necessary
.
As the cooling system is pressurised, 
follow the procedure below to avoid the 
risk of scalding:
-  
wait at least one hour after 
switching of
f the engine before 
carrying out any work,
-  
unscrew the cap by 1/4 turn to 
allow the pressure to drop,
-
  
when the pressure has dropped, 
check the level in the header tank,
-
 if necessary , remove the cap to top up.
If the needle remains in the red 
zone, have the system checked by 
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop.
Refer to chapter 7, "Levels" 
section.
Refer to chapter 7, "Fuel" section.
The fuel level is tested each time the 
key is turned to the "running" position.

Towing a trailer
Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap06_accessoire_ed02-2015
For more information about 
weights and towed loads, refer to 
chapter 9, "Weights" section.
TOWING  A TRAILER ,  A CARA VAN ...
Distribution of loads
d
istribute 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.a s 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.

Towing a trailer
Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap06_accessoire_ed02-2015
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 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 
CITR
o 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 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.

markings" section.
