Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of effectiveness of this system is noticed, the parking brake must be checked, even between two services.
Checking this system must be done by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified workshop.
Only use products recommended by PEUGEOT or products of equivalent quality and specification.
In order to optimise the operation of units as important as the braking system, PEUGEOT selects and offers very specific products.
To avoid damaging the electrical units, the use of a high pressure washer in the engine compartment is strictly prohibited.
