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.
Don'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 nitrogen
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.

Activation / DeactivationMalfunction
In the event of a malfunction, the LED
in the button comes on, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message in
the
screen.
Contact
a CITROËN dealer or qualified
workshop.
Good practice
In bad weather or in winter, ensure that
the sensors are not covered with mud,
ice or snow.
The system will be deactivated
automatically if a trailer is being towed
or
if a bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle
fitted
with a towbar or bicycle carrier
recommended
by CITROËN).
You can activate or deactivate
the system by pressing this
button.
The activation or deactivation
of the system is stored when
the
vehicle
stops.
Engage forward gear
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the front parking sensors are triggered
when an obstacle is detected in
front of the vehicle and the speed
of the vehicle remains below 6 mph
(10 km/h).
The
tone from the speaker (front
or rear) allows an obstacle to be
identified
as either in front of or
behind
the vehicle.
Stop the assistance
Change to neutral. The parking sensor system
cannot, in any circumstances,
take
the place of the vigilance and
responsibility
of the driver.

Driving safely
Operating faults
Sensor fault
The operation of the laser sensor may
suffer interference from accumulations
of dirt or misting of the windscreen.
In this case you are warned by the
display
of a message.
Use the windscreen demisting
and regularly clean the area of the
windscreen
in front of the sensor.
Do
not stick or otherwise fix any
object
on the windscreen in front
of
the sensor. System fault
In the event of a malfunction of the
system, you are warned by an audible
signal and the display of the message
"Automatic braking system fault".
Have
the system checked by a
CITROËN
dealer or a qualified
workshop.In the event of an impact to
the windscreen at the sensor
,
deactivate the system and contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop
to
have
your
windscreen
replaced.
Never
try to remove, adjust or test
the
sensor.
Only a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified
workshop is able to work
on
the system.
When towing a trailer or when the
vehicle is being towed, the system
must
be deactivated.

For more information about
weights and towed loads, refer to
chapter 9, "Weights" section.
TOWING A TRAILER , A CARA VAN ...
Distribution of loads
Distribute 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. As 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
149
Berlingo2VP_en_Chap06_Accessoire_ed02-2016
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 of
f 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
CITROËN 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.
