When driving with tyre chains on the tyres, do not
drive faster than 50 km/h (30 mph). When you
reach roads that are not covered in snow, immedi-
ately remove the tyre chains.
CAUTION
l
Practice fitting the chains before you
need them.
Don't expect help from other people in
the cold.
l
Choose a clear straight stretch of road
where you can pull over and still be seen
while you are fitting the chains.
l
Do not fit chains before you need them.
This will wear out your tyres and the
road surface.
l
After driving around 100-300 metres,
stop and retighten the chains.
l
Drive carefully and do not exceed
50 km/h (30 mph). Remember that pre-
venting accidents is not the purpose of
tyre chains.
l
When tyre chains are installed, take care
that they do not damage the disc wheel or
8
body.

place it with one of the rear wheels and in-
stall the compact spare wheel in that
place before fitting a tyre chain.
l
An aluminium wheel can be damaged by
a tyre chain while driving. When fitting a
tyre chain on an aluminium wheel, take
care that any part of the chain and fitting
cannot be brought into contact with the
wheel.
l
Remove the wheel covers before instal-
ling a tyre chain, otherwise they may be
damaged by the tyre chain. (Refer to
"Wheel covers" on page 6-18.)
l
When installing or removing the tyre
chains, take care that hands and other
parts of your body are not injured by the
sharp edges of the vehicle body.
NOTE
l
The laws and regulations concerning the use
of tyre chains vary. Always follow local laws
and regulations.
In most countries, it is prohibited by law to
use tyre chains on roads without snow.
