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.

Returning to the seat position
- 
In a single movement: take hold of 
the red strap and pull the assembly 
horizontally towards the rear
.
 Guide the movement until the feet 
of the bench seat lock on the floor
.
-
 
Raise the seat backrest.
 The control 
A locks in place 
automatically.
-
 
Check that the bench is locked on 
the floor correctly once it has been 
returned to the seat position.
Do not let the assembly fall sharply
.
Good practice
There is no need to assist, guide or 
support the tilting movement using 
your free arm.
The rear seat belt casings are not 
designed for securing the load 
transported. Use the stowing rings on 
the floor only.
The bench seat of the crew cab is not 
suitable for the installation of a child 
seat.
-
 
Using the same hand, fold the seat 
backrest and the associated grille
 
onto the seat cushion.
-
 
T
ake hold of the red strap (like 
a handle) and lift the assembly 
vertically, guiding the movement to 
the fully folded position.
The raised seat rests against the 
backrests of the seats of row 1.
Head restraints and seat belts
The three seats are equipped with 
inertia reel seat belts. The seat belts 
of the outer seats are secured to the 
body, whereas the seat belt of the 
centre seat is secured to the backrest 
of the bench seat.
Each seat has a head restraint bolted 
onto the load retaining grille and which 
can be removed.
d
o not store a head restraint inside 
the vehicle unless it is properly 
stowed or fixed to a support.
d
o not drive with rear passengers 
without first bolting the head restraints 
in place.

Practical information

Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2015Berlingo-2-VU_en_Chap05_Securite_ed02-2015
The inertia reels are fitted with a device 
which automatically locks the strap in 
the event of a collision or emergency 
braking or if the vehicle rolls over.
You can unfasten the seat belt by 
pressing the red button on the buckle. 
Guide the seat belt after unfastening.
The airbag warning lamp comes on 
if the pretensioners are deployed. 
Contact a CITRo Ë n  dealer or a 
qualified workshop. Recommendations for children:
-
 
use a suitable child seat if the 
passenger is less than 12 years old 
or shorter than one metre fifty
,
-
 
never allow a child to travel on 
your lap, even with the seat belt 
fastened.For more information on child 
seats, refer to the "Child safety" 
section of chapter 5.
Clean the seat belt straps with 
soapy water or a textile cleaning 
product, sold by CITR
o Ë n  
dealers.
In accordance with current safety 
regulations, your CITR
o Ë n  dealer can 
guarantee all work or any checks, from 
testing to maintenance, on your seat 
belt equipment.
Have the seat belts checked regularly 
(even after a minor impact) by a 
CITROËN dealer or a qualified 
workshop: they must not show any 
signs of wear, cutting or fraying 
and they must not be converted or 
modified.Front seat belts
The front seats are fitted with 
pretensioners and force limiters.
The seat belt associated with the 
centre seat of the front bench does not 
have a pretensioner.
In order to be effective, a seat belt:
-
 
must restrain one person only
,
-
 
must not be twisted, check by 
pullin
g in front of you with an even 
movement,
-
 
must be tightened as close to the 
body as possible.
The upper part of the seat belt should 
be positioned in the hollow of the 
shoulder
.
The lap part should be placed as low 
as possible on the pelvis.
d
o not interchange the seat belt 
buckles as they will not fulfil their role 
properly. If the seats are fitted with 
armrests, the lap part of the seat belt 
should always pass under the armrest.
Check that the seat belt is fastened 
correctly by pulling the strap firmly.

ADVICE ON CHILD SEATS
The incorrect installation of a child seat 
in a vehicle compromises the child's 
protection in the event of an accident.
Check that there is no seat belt or seat 
belt buckle under the child seat, as this 
could destabilise the seat.
Remember to fasten the seat belts or 
the child seat harnesses keeping the 
slack relative to the child's body to a 
minimum, even for short journeys.
For the installation of a child seat using 
the seat belt, ensure that the seat belt 
is well tensioned on the child seat 
and that it is holding the child seat 
firmly against the vehicle's seat. If the 
passenger seat is adjustable, move it 
forward if necessary.
At the rear, always leave sufficient 
space between the front seat and:
- 
a rearward facing child seat,
-
 
the feet of a child seated in a 
forward facing child seat.
For this, move the front seat forward 
and, if necessary
, straighten its 
backrest as well. For the optimum installation of a 
forward facing child seat, ensure that 
the back of the child seat is as close as 
possible to the backrest of the vehicle's 
seat, or in contact if possible.
The head restraint must be removed 
before installing a child seat with a 
backrest on the passenger seat.
Ensure that the head restraint is 
stowed or attached securely so that it 
is not thrown around the vehicle in the 
event of sharp braking.
Refit the head restraint as soon as the 
child seat is removed.
Children at the front
The legislation on carrying a child on 
the front passenger seat is specific to 
each country. Refer to the legislation in 
force in your country.
d
eactivate the passenger's airbag 
when a rearward facing child seat is 
installed on the front seat.
Otherwise, the child would risk being 
seriously injured or killed if the airbag 
were deployed.
Installing a booster seat
The chest part of the seat belt must 
be positioned on the child's shoulder 
without touching the neck.
Ensure that the lap part of the seat belt 
passes correctly over the child's thighs.
CITROËN recommends the use of a 
booster seat which has a back, fitted 
with a seat belt guide at shoulder level.
As a safety precaution, never leave:
-
 
one or more children alone and 
unsupervised in a vehicle,
-
 
a child or an animal in a vehicle 
which is exposed to the sun, with 
the windows closed,
-
 
the keys within reach of children 
inside the vehicle.
T
o prevent accidental opening of the 
doors, use the "Child Lock".
Take care not to open the rear windows 
by more than one third.
To protect young children from the rays 
of the sun, fit side blinds to the rear 
windows.
