Snow c c hains
Snow chains may only be fitted on the
front wheels.
The use of snow chains on the tyres
195/65 R 15 or 175/80 R 14 is allowed.

When using snow chains wheel trim
plates and trim rings must be taken off. In
this case, the wheel bolts must then be
fitted with caps to protect them.
When driving over roads which are free of
snow you must remove the chains. On
such roads they are detrimental to vehicle
handling, damage the tyres and wear out
quickly.
In some countries the maximum permissi-
ble speed with snow chains is 50 km/h.
