DRIVING
AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Four-speed automatic gearbox which
offers a choice between the comfort of
fully automatic operation, enhanced by
sport and snow programmes, or manual
gear changing.
Therefore, four driving modes are of-
fered:
- automatic operation for electronic
management of the gears by the
gearbox,
- sport programme for a more dynamic
style of driving,
- snow programme to improve driving
when traction is poor,
- manual operation for sequential
changing of the gears by the driver.

CHECKS
Manual gearbox The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for the details
of the level checking interval
for this component.
Automatic gearbox The gearbox does not re-
quire any maintenance (no oil
change).
Refer to the Maintenance and
Warranty Guide for details of
the level checking interval for
this component. 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.
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
by a CITROËN dealer. Only use products recommend-
ed by CITROËN or products of
equivalent quality and specifi ca-
tions.
In order to optimise the operation
of units as important as the brak-
ing system, CITROËN selects
and offers very specifi c products.
To avoid damaging the electrical
units, the use of a high pressure
washer in the engine compart-
ment is strictly
prohibited .
