MAINTENANCE OF YOUR 306 CABRIOLET
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR APPROVED LUBRICANTS The oils which appear in the table opposite are suitable for most pur-poses. The diagram opposite states the optimum range of viscosity depen-ding on the temperatures at which theoils are to be used. It is also possible to use synthetic oils
of 'superior quality. In the absence of semi-synthetic or
synthetic oils, oils of API SH/SJ maybe used by following the 'ArduousConditions' maintenance schedulewhich specifies shorter intervals. Do not hesitate to ask for advice from
a PEUGEOT dealer to maintaindriving pleasure and to minimise themaintenance cost of your vehicle. For countries outside Europe, please
contact a local PEUGEOT dealer.

THE ABS ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM* In conjunction with tyres in good con- dition and of an approved make, theABS system with electronic brakeforce distribution improves the stabil-ity and handling of your vehicle, par-ticularly on an uneven or slipperysurface. The anti-lock braking system comes into operation automatically whenthere is a risk of wheel lock.
In the event of emergency braking,press very firmly without reducingthe pressure. In some conditions the normal oper-
ation of the ABS may be felt asvibrations of the brake pedal.
* According to specification.
Power steering*
This is a comfort device which offers the best compromise for parking, andfor driving at high speeds.
