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 fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.
Brake disc wear
For information relating to
checking the brake disc wear,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
Parking brake If a loss of effectiveness of this
system is noticed, the parking
brake must be checked, even
between two services.
This system must be checked

braking system, CITROËN se-
lects and offers very specifi c
products.
