Snow chains
The snow chains must be fitted only to the rear wheels (vehicle with rear wheel drive).It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face. Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running speed
authorised. For more information on snow chains,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.Avoid driving with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted
with alloy wheels, check that no part of
the chain or its fixings is in contact with
the wheel rim.Advice on installation

j
ourney, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.

ChecksUnless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule.
Other wise, have them checked by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Passenger compartment filter
Refer to the manufacturer's
service schedule for details of the
replacement intervals for this filter.
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.
Brake pads
Only use products recommended by
CITROËN or products of equivalent
quality and specifications.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the braking
system, CITROËN selects and offers
very specific products.
Parking brake
If a loss of effectiveness of this
system is noticed, the parking brake
must be checked, even between
two
s
ervices.
Brake disc / drum wear
For information on checking the
brake disc or drum wear, contact
a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
This system must be checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty
atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle
(e.g.
c
ity driving), replace it twice as often
if necessary .
A dirty passenger compartment filter may have
an adverse effect on the per formance of the air
conditioning system and generate undesirable
odours.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
