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.

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
PEUGEOT dealer.
