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. For information relating to
checking the brake disc wear,
contact a CITROËN dealer.
If a loss of effectiveness of this
system is noticed, the parking
brake must be checked, even
between two services.
