tile Technical
Data.
To
ensure adequate
clearance between chain
and
wheel
arch,
use only the fine-link chains
recommended
and approved by Porsche.
Remove hardened
snow
and
ice
from inside the
wheel
arches before fitting
snow chains.
Different countries have varying statutory re-
quirements governing maximum speed, which
must be
observed.
When fitting tyres already mounted on rims, en-
sure
that the
coloured
wheel bolt is opposite the
valve. When removing, mark the direction of ro-
tation on each
wheel,
e.g.,
FR,
FL,
RR and RL.
This precaution ensures that the wheels will be
remounted
in the
same
position, thus obviating
the risk of imbalance.
Note
It
can
be helpful during winter to keep a hand-
brush and scraper in your Porsche to clear the
windows of ice and snow, as well as a board to
put under the jack and
some
dry sand to help
traction when pulling away on icy slopes.
