This video shows how to deactivate the electronic handbrake on a Citroen Berlingo; the same procedure applies to the Peugeot Partner and Vauxhall/Opel Combo. This will be useful if you need to work on the rear brakes, as you must put them into "operational" mode to work on them without causing damage.

Start the engine and press the brake pedal, then disengage the handbrake and turn off the ignition. This will cause the handbrake to engage automatically.

Now restart the engine, press the handbrake button, and while holding it, also press the brake pedal. While continuing to hold the button, turn off the vehicle's ignition, then release the brake pedal and the button.

If you open the door, you will see that the handbrake light is off, allowing you to work on it. If you restart the engine, the handbrake will automatically reactivate.

Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat.
