How do you adjust the handbrake of the Citroen C3?

Model: Citroen C3 SC - Years 2009-2016
Part: Parking brake

In this video we see how to adjust the handbrake of a Citroen C3: we remove the mat from the central console, which is located in the glove compartment, right in the center of it, behind the handbrake itself. Underneath, and near the handbrake, we will find two screws to unscrew, which will allow us to remove the glove compartment, and underneath we will find the screw that will allow us to remove the plastic body around the handbrake. We pull up the lever and lift the cover, in order to have free access to the adjustment screw, which is located on the right of the lever. We adjust it according to our needs, keeping in mind that it will be properly adjusted when the lever can be lifted by three, maximum four notches. We put the body back in place and then put back the glove compartment with its screws. We place the mat and the job is done.
