Brake pads
Brake disc wear
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.
For information on checking brake
disc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
or a qualified workshop.
on
ly 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, CITR
oËn

selects and
offers very specific products.
Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
the brake fluid level indicates that the brake
pads are worn.
Checking this system must be done by a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. 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.
