wheels on the ground, always use an
approved towing bar; rope and straps
are prohibited.

or fast road,

Most of these fluids are harmful to
health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into
sewers or onto the ground.
Take used oil to a CITROËN dealer or
a qualified workshop (France) or to an
authorised waste disposal site.

The reser voir must be topped up without delay
by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

Checks
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 ser vices.















Brake pads

For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.


Brake disc wear




















Parking brake


If excessive travel or a loss of
effectiveness of this system is
noticed, the parking brake must be
checked, even between two ser vices.















Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of
units as important as those in the
braking system, CITROËN selects and
offers very specific products.
After washing the vehicle, dampness,
or in wintry conditions, ice can form
on the brake discs and pads: braking
efficiency may be reduced. Make light
brake applications to dry and defrost
the brakes.
Checking this system must be done by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
