CHECKS
Carbon filter and passenger compartment filterParticle filter (Diesel)
Maintenance of the particle filter must be carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
o
n 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 ef
fect on vehicle
handling
or the environment.
Battery
At the start of summer or winter, have your battery checked by a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
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
For information on checking the brake disc / drum wear, contact a CITROËN
dealer
.
Parking brake
Where the parking brake travel is too great or there is a reduction in the
performance
of the system, the parking
brake
should be adjusted, even between
services.
Have
the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer
or a qualified workshop.
Oil filter
Change the filter regularly in accordance with the manufacturer's
servicing
schedule.
An
access
flap
allows
replacement
of
the
filters.
The
carbon
filter
permits
continuous
and
effective
filtering
of
dust.
If
the
passenger
compartment
filter
becomes
blocked,
this
may
reduce
the
performance
of
the
air
conditioning
system
and
generate
unpleasant
odours.
W
e
recommend
the
use
of
a
combined
passenger
compartment
filter.
By
means
of
its
second
special
active
filter
,
it
contributes
to
the
purification
of the air breathed by the occupants
and the cleanness of the passenger
compartment
(reduction
of
allergic
symptoms,
unpleasant
odours
and
greasy
deposits).
Refer to theservicing and warranty
booklet
for
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.
