CHECKS Only use products recommended
by CITROËN or products of equiva-
lent quality and specifi cations.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, CITROËN selects and of-
fers very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compartment
is strictly prohibited .
Brake disc wear status
Brake pads Handbrake Brake wear depends on the
style of driving, particularly in
the case of vehicles used in
town, over short distances. It
may be necessary to have the
condition of the brakes checked, even
between vehicle services.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a
drop in the brake fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn. For information relating to
checking the brake disc wear
status, contact a CITROËN
dealer.
If the handbrake travel is too
long or if a loss of effective-
ness of this system is no-
ticed, the handbrake must be
adjusted, even between two
services.
This system must be checked by a
CITROËN dealer.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the Maintenance and
