Checks
CHECKS
Battery
At the start of winter, have your battery
checked by a CITROËN dealer.
Brake pads
Brake pad wear depends on the style of
driving, in particular for vehicles which are
used in town, over short distances. It may
be necessary to check the thickness of the
pads, even between services.
Unless there is a leak on the circuit, a drop
in the brake fluid level indicates that the
brake pads are worn.
Brake disc/drum wear status
For any information relating to checking
the brake disc/drum wear status, contact a
CITROËN dealer.
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too great
or there is a reduction in the performance
of the system, the handbrake should be
adjusted, even between services.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer. Oil filter
Change the filter regularly, in accordance
with the servicing schedule.
Carbon filter and passenger
compartment filter
The carbon filter permits continuous and
effective filtering of dust.
If the passenger compartment filter becomes
clogged, this may reduce the performance
of the air conditioning system and generate
unpleasant odours.
We recommend the use of a combined
p a s s e n g e r c o m p a r t m e n t fi l t e r . B y m e a n s o f
i t s s e c o n d s p e c i a l a c t i v e fi l t e r , i t c o n t r i b u t e s
t o t h e p u r i fi c a t i o n o f t h e a i r b r e a t h e d b y t h e
occupants and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms,
unpleasant odours and greasy deposits).
Refer to the servicing booklet to find out the
replacement interval for these components.
Depending on the environment (dusty
atmosphere...) and the use of the vehicle
(urban driving...), change them twice as
often if necessary.
Particle emission filter (Diesel)
It is imperative that particle
emission filter maintenance is
carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
On acceleration after the vehicle
has been running for a prolonged period
at very low speed or at idle, you may, in
exceptional circumstances, notice the
emission of water vapour at the exhaust.
This water vapour does not have any
adverse effect on vehicle handling or the
environment.
Refer to the "Under the bonnet" section
of chapter 6.
