SERVICE INDICATOR

This programmes service intervals

according to the use of the vehicle.

More than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Example:

 4 800 miles/km remain 

before the next service is due. When 

the ignition is switched on and for a

few seconds, the screen shows:

A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed
(depending on version), then the total
distance recorder resumes normal
operation showing the total and trip

distances.

Less than 1 000 miles/km before the
next service is due
Each time the ignition is switched on and for a few

seconds, the spanner flashes and the number of 

miles/kilometres remaining is displayed:

A few seconds after the ignition is
switched on, the oil level is displayed
(depending on version), then the total
distance recorder resumes normal

operation and the spanner remains on. 

This indicates that a service should be

carried out shortly.

Service overdue

Operation
A few moments after the ignition
has been switched on, the spanner
indicating a service operation comes
on; the display for the total distance

recorder gives (in round figures) the 

distance remaining before the next

service.
The points at which a service is due
are calculated from the last indicator

zero reset.
The point at which a service is due is

determined by two parameters:
-

the distance travelled,

-

the time which has elapsed since

the last service.

The distance remaining before the
next service may be weighted by
the time factor, depending on the

type of driving.

With the engine running the spanner
remains on until the service has been

carried out.
For BlueHDi Diesel versions, this

alert is also accompanied by the fixed 

illumination of the Service warning

lamp, on switching on the ignition.

Each time the ignition is
switched on and for a few
seconds, the spanner

flashes and the excess 

distance is displayed.

For BlueHDi Diesel versions, the
spanner can also come on early,
according the level of deterioration

of the engine oil. Deterioration of the 

engine oil depends on the conditions of

use of the vehicle.

After this operation, if you wish

to disconnect the battery, lock 

the vehicle and wait for at least five 

minutes, otherwise the zero re-set will

not be registered.

Engine oil level indicator

Depending on your vehicle's engine,
when the ignition is switched on,
the engine oil level is indicated for
a few seconds, after the service

information.

Oil level
correct

Low oil level
Flashing of "OIL",

linked with the 

service warning lamp,
accompanied by an

audible signal and a message in the
screen, indicates a low oil level which

could damage the engine.

If the low oil level is confirmed by a 

check using the dipstick, it is essential 

that the level is topped up.

Oil level gauge
fault
Flashing of "OIL--"
indicates a
malfunction of the

engine oil level indicator. Contact 

a CITROËN dealer or a qualified 

workshop.

The level read will only be correct
if the vehicle is on level ground
and the engine has been off for

more than 30 minutes.

Dipstick
A
= maximum, never exceed
this level as a surplus of oil

may damage the engine.
Contact a CITROËN dealer

or a qualified workshop 

without delay.
B = minimum, top up the level

via the oil filler cap, using the 

grade of oil suited to your

engine.

Lighting dimmer

With the ignition on, press
the button until the zeros

appear.

With the lighting on,
press the button to vary
the brightness of the

instruments and controls. 

When the lighting reaches
the minimum

(or maximum) setting, release the
button then press it again to increase

(or reduce) the brightness.
As soon as the lighting is of the

required brightness, release the button.

Zero reset

Your CITROËN dealer or a qualified 

workshop carries out this operation 

after each service.
However, if you carry out the service
yourself, the re-set procedure is as

follows:
-

switch off the ignition,

-

press and hold the trip recorder
reset button,

-  switch on the ignition.

The display begins a countdown.
When the display shows "=0", release

the button; the spanner disappears.

To change gear easily, always depress

the clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming

caught under the pedal:
-

ensure that the mat is positioned

and secured correctly on the floor,

-  never fit one mat on top of another.
When driving, avoid leaving your hand

on the gear knob as the force exerted, 

even if slight, may wear the internal

components of the gearbox over time.

Changing into 5

th

or 6

th

gear

To engage the gear correctly, move the

gear lever fully to the right.

Engaging reverse gear

The lever should be moved slowly

to reduce noise.

To engage reverse gear, wait until the

vehicle has come to a complete stop.

STEERING WHEEL ADJUSTMENT

When the vehicle is stationary,

release the steering wheel adjustment 

mechanism by pulling the lever.

Adjust the steering wheel for height 

and reach, then lock the mechanism by 

pushing the lever fully forward.

The information appears
in the instrument panel

in the form of an arrow. It 

may be accompanied by a

recommended gear.

The system adapts its gear
change recommendation
according to the driving conditions

(slope, load, ...) and the demands 

of the driver (power, acceleration,

braking, ...).

The system never suggests:

-  engaging first gear,

-  engaging reverse gear.

With an electronic gearbox, the system

is only active in manual mode.

GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR

Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system

may advise you to skip one (or more) 

gear(s). You can follow this instruction 

without engaging the intermediate

gears.
The gear engagement
recommendations must not be

considered compulsory. This is 

because the configuration of the road, 

the traffic density and safety remain 

determining factors when choosing

the best gear. Therefore, the driver 

remains responsible for deciding
whether or not to follow the indications

given.

This function cannot be deactivated.

System which reduces fuel
consumption by recommending the

Stop & Start

Berlingo2VP_en_Chap03_Pret-a-partir_ed02-2016

STOP & START

The Stop & Start system puts the
engine temporarily on standby - STOP

mode - during stops in the traffic (red 

lights, traffic jams, or other...).
The engine restarts automatically -
START mode - as soon as you want to

move off.

The restart takes place instantly, 

quickly and silently.
Perfect for urban use, the Stop & Start
system reduces fuel consumption and
exhaust emissions as well as the noise

level when stationary.

Operation

Going into engine STOP mode

The "ECO" warning lamp
comes on in the instrument
panel and the engine goes

into standby:

-

with a manual gearbox, at speeds

below 12 mph (20 km/h), when you 

put the gear lever into neutral and
release the clutch pedal,

-

with a 6-speed electronic
gearbox
, at speeds below 5 mph

(8 km/h), when you press the brake 

pedal or put the gear lever into
position N

.

If your vehicle is fitted with the system, 

a time counter calculates the sum of
the periods in STOP mode during a

journey. It rests itself to zero every time 

the ignition is switched on with the key.

With a 6-speed electronic
gearbox, for your comfort during

parking manoeuvres, STOP mode 

is not available for a few seconds after

coming out of reverse gear.
STOP mode does not affect the
functionality of the vehicle, such as

braking, power steering, for example.

Never refuel with the engine in
STOP mode; you must switch off

the ignition with the key.

Special cases: STOP mode
unavailable
STOP mode is not invoked when:
-

the vehicle is on a steep slope
(rising or falling),

-

the driver's door is open,

-

the driver's seat belt is not
fastened,

-

the vehicle has not exceeded

6 mph (10 km/h) since the last 

engine start using the key,

-

the engine is needed to maintain
a comfortable temperature in the
passenger compartment,

-

demisting is on,

-

some special conditions (battery
charge, engine temperature,

braking assistance, ambient 

temperature...) where the engine 

is needed to assure control of a

system.

In this case, the "ECO"

warning lamp flashes for a 

few seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

Stop & Start

Berlingo2VP_en_Chap03_Pret-a-partir_ed02-2016

Going into engine START mode

The "ECO" warning lamp

goes off and the engine starts:

-

with a manual gearbox, when you
fully depress the clutch pedal,

-

with a 6-speed electronic
gearbox

:

●  gear lever in position A or M,

when you release the brake 

pedal,

●  or gear lever in position N and

the brake pedal released, when 

you move the gear lever to
position A or M,

●  or when you engage reverse 

gear.

With a manual gearbox in STOP
mode, if a gear is engaged without
fully depressing the clutch pedal, a
warning lamp comes on or a message

is displayed asking you to depress the 

clutch pedal to restart the engine.

Special cases: START invoked
automatically
For your safety and comfort, START is

invoked automatically when:
-

you open the driver's door,

-

you unfasten the driver's seat belt,

In this case the "ECO"

warning lamp flashes for few 

seconds, then goes off.

This operation is perfectly normal.

Deactivation

In certain circumstances, such as the need
to maintain a comfortable temperature in
the passenger compartment, it may be

preferable to deactivate Stop & Start.

At any time, press the "ECO
OFF"
switch to deactivate the

system.

This is confirmed by the switch warning 

lamp coming on accompanied by a

message in the screen.
If the system has been deactivated
in STOP mode, the engine restarts

immediately.

Reactivation

Press the "ECO OFF"

 switch again.

The system is active again; this is

confirmed by the switch warning

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 off,

-  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.

DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS

Observe the driving regulations and

remain vigilant whatever the traffic 

conditions.

Pay close attention to the traffic and 

keep your hands on the wheel so that 

you are ready to react at any time to

any eventuality.
As a safety precaution, the driver
must only carry out actions requiring
sustained attention when the vehicle is

stationary.

On a long journey, a break every 

two hours is strongly recommended.

In difficult weather, drive smoothly, 

anticipate the need to brake and 

increase the distance from other

vehicles.

Driving on flooded roads

We strongly advise against driving

on flooded roads, as this could cause 

serious damage to the engine or
gearbox, as well as to the electrical

systems of your vehicle.

If you are obliged to drive through

water:

-  check that the depth of water does 

not exceed 15 cm, taking account 

of waves that might be generated
by other users,

-

deactivate the Stop & Start system,

-

drive as slowly as possible without

stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 

6 mph (10 km/h),

-

do not stop and do not switch off

the engine.

On leaving the flooded road, as soon 

as circumstances allow, make several 

light brake applications to dry the brake 

discs and pads.
If in doubt on the state of your vehicle,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a

qualified workshop.

Never drive with the parking brake 

applied - Risk of overheating and 

damage to the braking system!

Risk of fire!
As the exhaust system of your vehicle
is very hot, even several minutes
after switching off the engine, do not

park or leave the engine running over 

areas where inflammable substances 

and materials are present: grass, 

leaves, etc.

Never leave a vehicle
unsupervised with the engine

running. If you have to leave 

your vehicle with the engine running,

apply the parking brake and put the 

gearbox into neutral or position N or P,

depending on the type of gearbox.

Important!

Screenwash

Pull the stalk towards you, the wash-

wipe is accompanied by a timed sweep

of the wipers.

Turn the ring past the first 

position: the rear screenwash 

then the rear wiper operates

for a fixed time.

In winter, in the event of a
considerable amount of snow
or ice, switch on the heated

rear screen. Once the screen is 

clear, remove the snow or ice which
has accumulated on the rear wiper

blade. You can then operate the rear 

windscreen wiper.

To top up the level, refer to the

"Levels" section of chapter 7.

Special position of the
windscreen wipers

In the minute following switching
off of the ignition, any action on the

stalk positions the wipers against the 

windscreen uprights.
This action enables you to position

the wiper blades for winter parking, 

cleaning or replacement.

Refer to the "Changing a windscreen

wiper blade" section of chapter 8.

To park the wipers in their normal 

position after this has been done,
switch on the ignition and move the

stalk.

Turn the ring to the first 

position.
