Snow Traction Devices

If driving on snowy or frozen roads, mount winter tyres, or tyre chains; reduce
speed; and maintain sufficient distance between vehicles when driving.
Be particularly careful when operating the steering wheel or brakes to prevent skidding.
Use tyre chains, winter tyres, or all season tyres when necessary or according to the law.
When mounting, refer to the following points.
For winter tyres:
• Select the size and load ranges that are the same as the original tyres.
• Mount the tyres to all four wheels.

Using the wrong chains, or not properly
installing chains, can damage the brake
lines and cause a crash in which you can be
seriously injured or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner's
manual regarding the selection and use of
tyre chains.
NOTICE
Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly
installed can damage your vehicle's brake lines,
suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are
hitting any part of the vehicle.
According to the EU legislation for tyres, when winter
tyres are used, it is necessary to affix a sticker with the
allowable max. speed of the winter tyres clearly in the
field of view of the driver, if the designed max. speed
of vehicle is higher than the allowed max. speed of
winter tyre. A sticker is obtainable from your tyre
dealer. If you have any question, consult a dealer.
When tyre chains are mounted, follow the chain
manufacturer's instructions regarding vehicle
operational limits.
