CHECKS





















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 fl uid level indicates
that the brake pads are worn.







Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no
oil change).






Automatic gearbox

The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no
oil change).

Brake disc wear

For information on check-
ing brake disc wear, con-
tact a CITROËN dealer or
a qualifi ed workshop.

of this system is noticed,
the parking brake must be
checked, even between
