For the sake of the environment
Re-fit the summer tyres at an appropriate time as they provide better handling
properties, a shorter braking distance, less tyre noise, and reduced tyre wear
on roads which are free of snow and ice as well as at temperatures above 7 °C.
The fuel consumption is also lower.
Snow chains
When driving on wintry roads, snow chains improve not only traction, but also
the braking performance.
Snow chains must only be mounted on the front wheels.
For technical reasons, it is only permissible to fit snow chains with the follow-
ing wheel/tyre combinations.
Wheel size
5J x 14
6J x 14

Only fit snow chains with links and locks not larger than 12 mm.
CAUTION
The chains must be removed when driving on roads which are free of snow.

They adversely affect the handling of your vehicle, damage the tyres and are
rapidly destroyed.
