Vauxhall-approved, the tyres must not
have a beaded edge.
Wheel trims must not impair brake cooling.
Remove the wheel trims if fitting tyre
chains 3.
9 Warning
Use of unsuitable tyres or wheel trims
could lead to sudden loss of air and
thereby accidents.
Tyre chains 3
Restrictions and further notes 3 176.
Tyre chains are only permitted on the drive
wheels (front axle). They must be fitted to
the tyres symmetrically in order to achieve
a concentric fit.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no
more than 10 mm to the tyre tread and
the inboard sides (including chain lock).
Driving and Operation
Remove the wheel trims if using tyre chains.
Tyre chains may only be used at speeds
up to 30 mph (50 km/h). They must only be
used for brief periods on roads that are
free of snow.
9 Warning
Damage may lead to tyre blowout.
Tyre chains must not be used on the
temporary spare wheel. If you need to use
tyre chains after suffering a flat front tyre,
fit the temporary spare on the rear axle
and transfer one of the rear wheels to
the front axle.
