Motoring & the Environment
Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap02_eco-conduite_ed02-2015
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest 
items in the bottom of the boot, as close as possible to the 
rear seats.
Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and reduce wind 
resistance (roof bars, roof rack, bicycle carrier, trailer...). 
Use a roof box in preference.
Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.
At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit your 
summer tyres.
Observe the recommendations on maintenance
Check the tyre pressures regularly, when cold, referring to 
the label in the door aperture, driver's side.
Carry out this check in particular:
- 
before a long journey
 ,
-
 
at each change of season,
-
 
after a long period out of use.
d
on't forget the spare wheel and the tyres on any trailer or 
caravan.
Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil 
filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter...) and 
observe the schedule of operations recommended in the 
manufacturer's service schedule.
With a BlueHDi Diesel engine, if the SCR system is 
faulty your vehicle becomes polluting; go to a CITROËN 
dealer or a qualified workshop without delay to have the 
emissions of nitrous oxides brought back to the legal level.
When refuelling, do not continue after the third cut-off of 
the nozzle to avoid any overflow.
At the wheel of your new vehicle, it is only after the first 
1 800 miles (3 000 kilometres) that you will see the fuel 
consumption settle down to a consistent average.

Good practice
Do not make any modifications to the 
electronic immobiliser system.
Operating the remote control, even 
when it is in your pocket, may result in 
involuntary unlocking of the doors.
The simultaneous use of other 
high frequency equipment (mobile 
telephones, domestic alarms…), may 
interfere with the operation of the 
remote control temporarily.
The remote control does not operate 
while the key is in the ignition, even if 
the ignition is off.
ELECTRONIC IMMOBILISER
All of the keys contain an electronic 
immobiliser device.
This device locks the engine supply 
system. It is activated automatically 
when the key is removed from the 
ignition.
a
fter the ignition is switched on, a 
dialogue is established between the 
key and the electronic immobiliser 
system.
The metal part of the key must be 
unfolded correctly for correct dialogue 
to take place.
If you lose your keys
Visit a CITR
o Ë n  dealer with the 
vehicle's V5 registration certificate and 
your identification document.
a CITR
o Ë n  dealer will be able 
to retrieve the key code and 
the transponder code so that a 
replacement key can be ordered.
Don't forget
When leaving the vehicle, check that 
the lighting is off and nothing of value 
is visible.
a
s a safety precaution (with children 
on board), remove the key from the 
ignition when leaving the vehicle, even 
for a short time.
When purchasing a second-hand 
vehicle, have the keys memorised by 
a CITR
o Ë n  dealer, so as to be sure 
that the keys in your possession are 
the only ones that can be used to start 
the vehicle.
ALARM
If fitted on your vehicle, this provides 
two types of protection:
-
 
exterior protection: it sounds if a 
front/rear door or the bonnet is 
opened.
-
 
interior protection: it sounds if 
the volume inside the passenger 
compartment changes (breaking of 
a window or a movement inside the 
vehicle).
If 
your vehicle is fitted with a separation 
partition, the interior protection is not 
active in the load space.
Locking the vehicle with 
complete alarm
Setting the alarm
- Switch of f the ignition and get out of 
the vehicle.
-
 
Set the alarm within five minutes of 
getting out of the vehicle, by locking 
or deadlocking using the remote 
control. 
The red LED, located in the 
button, flashes once per second.

Driving with the doors locked may 
make access to the interior more 
difficult in an emergency.
CENTRAL LOCKING
Cab and load space
Load space
Locking while driving
When the vehicle moves off, as soon 
as you reach approximately 6 mph 
(10  km/h), the system locks the doors. 
The characteristic central locking noise 
is heard. The LED in the control switch 
on the dashboard central switch panel 
comes on.
During the journey, opening a door 
results in complete unlocking of the 
vehicle.
Anti-intrusion protection
An initial press locks the front 
and rear doors, when they 
are closed.
A second press unlocks the 
vehicle.
The control switch is inactive when 
the vehicle has been locked using 
the remote control or the key from the 
outside. Activating / deactivating the 
function
With the ignition on, press 
and hold this switch to 
activate or deactivate the 
function.
Door open warning lamp If this warning lamp comes 
on, check that all of your 
vehicle's doors are closed

locking status of the cab.
The doors can still be opened 
from the inside.
The control switch LED:
-
 
flashes when the doors are locked with 
the vehicle stationary and the engine off,
- comes on when the doors are locked 
and from the time the ignition is 
switched on.
