207CC_EN_CHAP08_VERIFICATIONS_ED01-2014

Only use products recommended by

PEUGEOT or products of equivalent

quality and specifi cations.

In order to optimise the operation

of units as important as the braking

system, PEUGEOT selects and of-

fers very specifi c products.

To avoid damaging the electrical

units, the use of a high pressure

washer in the engine compartment

is strictly

prohibited .

After washing the vehicle, or in hu-

mid or wintry conditions, ice can

form on the brake discs and pads

with a resulting loss of effi ciency of

the brakes. Make a few light brake

applications to defrost and dry the

brakes.

Automatic gearbox

The gearbox does not re-

quire any maintenance (no oil

change).

Refer to the warranty and

maintenance record for de-

tails of the checking intervals

for this component.

Brake disc and drum wear

For any information relating

to checking of the brake disc

and/or drum wear, contact a

PEUGEOT dealer or a quali-

fi ed workshop.

Manual gearbox

The gearbox does not re-

quire any maintenance (no oil

change).

Refer to the warranty and

maintenance record for details

of the level checking intervals

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 on the circuit, a

drop in the brake fl uid level indicates

that the brake pads are worn.

Parking brake

If the parking brake travel is

too long or if you notice a loss

of effectiveness of this sys-

tem, the parking brake must

be adjusted, even between

two services.

This system must be checked by a

PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed work-

shop.

SNOW CHAINS

In wintry conditions, snow chains im-

prove traction as well as the behaviour

of the vehicle when braking.

The snow chains must be fi tted

only to the front wheels. They must

never be fi tted to "space-saver"

type spare wheels.

Take account of the legislation in

force in your country on the use

of snow chains and the maximum

running speed authorised.

Advice on installation

 If you have to fi t the chains during

a journey, stop the vehicle on a fl at

surface on the side of the road.

 Apply the parking brake and posi-

tion any wheel chocks to prevent

movement of your vehicle.

 Fit the chains following the instruc-

tions provided by the manufacturer.

 Move off gently and drive for a few

moments, without exceeding 30 mph

(50 km/h).

 Stop your vehicle and check that the

snow chains are correctly tightened.

Avoid driving with snow chains on

roads that have been cleared of

snow, to avoid damaging your ve-

hicle's tyres and the road surface.

It is recommended that before you

leave, you practise fi tting the snow

chains on a level and dry surface.

If your vehicle is fi tted with alloy

wheels, check that no part of the

chain or its fi xings is in contact with

the wheel rim.

Use only the chains designed to be fi t-

ted to the type of wheel fi tted to your

vehicle:
