Snow chains
Safety information
WARNING
If snow chains are fitted to unsuitable tyres,
the snow chains can come into contact with
parts of the vehicle. There is a risk of accident
or material damage. Only fit snow chains on
tyres which have been approved by the man-
ufacturer as being suitable for snow chains.
WARNING
Insufficiently tensioned snow chains can
damage tyres and vehicle components.
There is a risk of accident or material dam-
age. Ensure that snow chains are always ad-
equately tensioned. Re-tension them if nec-
essary in accordance with the snow chain
manufacturer's instructions.
Fine-link snow chains
The vehicle manufacturer recommends using
fine-link snow chains. Certain fine-link snow
chains have been tested, found safe for use
in traffic and rated as suitable by the manufac-
turer of the vehicle.
Information regarding suitable snow chains is
available from a Service Partner of the manu-
facturer or another qualified Service Partner or
a specialist workshop.
