Checks

Brake disc wear
Brake pads
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 fluid level indicates that the brake pads are worn.
For information on checking brake disc wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change). Refer to the warranty and maintenance record for details of the checking interval for this component.
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine servicing. However, in the event of a problem, have the system checked by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality and specification. In order to optimise the operation of units as important as those in the braking system, PEUGEOT 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.
For more information, refer to the "Electric parking brake - Operating faults" section.
