A few driving recommendations
Observe the driving regulations at all times and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.
Pay
close attention to the traffic and keep your
h
ands on the wheel so that you are ready to
r
eact at any time to any eventuality.
On
a long journey, a break every two hours is
s
trongly
re
commended.
In
difficult weather, drive smoothly, anticipate
t
he need to brake and increase the distance
f
rom other vehicles.
Driving on flooded
roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage
t
o the engine or gearbox, as well as to the
e
lectrical systems of your vehicle.If
you are obliged to drive through water:
-
c
heck that the depth of water does not
e
xceed 15 cm, taking account of waves
t
hat might be generated by other users,
-
d
eactivate the Stop & Start system,
-
d
rive as slowly as possible without
s
talling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (
10 km/h),
- d o not stop and do not switch off
t
he engine.
On
leaving the flooded road, as soon as
c
ircumstances allow, make several light brake
a
pplications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If
in doubt on the state of your vehicle, contact
a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.
Important!
Never drive with the parking brake applied - Risk of overheating and
d
amage to the braking system!
Do
not park or run the engine when
s
tationary in areas where inflammable
s
ubstances and materials (dry grass,
d
ead leaves...) might come into contact
w
ith the hot exhaust system - Risk of
f
ire!

leave a vehicle unsupervised
w
ith the engine running. If you have
t
o leave your vehicle with the engine
r
unning, apply the parking brake
a

Brake wear depends on the style of driving, particularly in the case
o
f vehicles used in town, over short
d
istances. It may be necessary to
h
ave
the
condition of the brakes checked, even
b
etween
v
ehicle
s
ervices.
Unless
there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in
t
he
brake
fluid level indicates that the brake
p
ads
are
worn.
Brake pads
For information on checking brake d isc wear, contact a CITROËN dealer
o
r a qualified workshop.

q
uality
an

In
order to optimise the operation of
u
nits as important as those in the
b
raking system, CITROËN selects and
o
ffers very specific products.
After
washing the vehicle, dampness,
o
r in wintry conditions, ice can form

fficiency may be reduced. Make light
b
rake applications to dry and defrost

he brakes.
