CHECKS
Handbrake
Where the handbrake travel is too
great or there is a reduction in the
performance of the system, the
handbrake should be adjusted, even
between services.
Have the system checked by a
PEUGEOT dealer. Only use products recom-
mended by PEUGEOT
or products of equivalent
quality and specifi cations.
To ensure best performance from
components as important as the
power steering and the braking
system, PEUGEOT selects and
offers quite specifi c products.
To prevent damage to the electrical
units, avoid washing the engine.
Air filter and passenger
compartment filter
Have the fi lter elements replaced reg-
ularly. If you drive in dusty condi-
tions, change them twice as often.
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.
Brake disc/drum wear status
For further information relating to
checking brake disc and/or drum
wear, contact a PEUGEOT dealer. Oil filter
Change the fi lter regularly, in accor-
dance with the servicing schedule.
FUEL SUPPLY CUT-OFF
In a serious collision, a system pre-
vents fuel from reaching the engine.
To re-establish the fuel supply, press
the switch on the angle of the front
left-hand suspension assembly, un-
der the bonnet.
Manual gearbox
This does not require an oil change.
Have the level checked in accor-
dance with the manufacturer's ser-
vicing schedule.

To check the main levels and cer-
tain components, in accordance
with the manufacturer's servicing
schedule, refer to the pages of
the servicing booklet which corre-
spond to your vehicle's engine.
Battery
At the start of winter, have your bat-
tery checked by a PEUGEOT dealer.

to obtain a duplicate anti-theft socket
from a PEUGEOT dealer.
