Skoda FABIA - 05-2007 Manual page 172

170 Wheels and Tyres
Snow chains
Snow chains can be used on all tyres except type 195/50 R15 and 205/45 R16 as
well as 185/60 R14 in combination with the wheel trim 6J x 14 with a depth of 38
mm.
Snow chains must only be mounted on the front wheels.
When driving on wintry roads, snow chains improve not only traction, but also the
braking performance.
Only use fine-link snow chains. They must not project more than 15 mm -
including the chain lock.
Remove the full wheel trims before installing the snow chains.
Observe the national legal requirements relating to the maximum vehicle speed
with snow chains.
WARNING
Please pay attention to the information in the supplied fitting instructions of
the snow chain manufacturer.
Caution
You must take the chains off as soon as you drive on roads which are free of snow.
They adversely affect the handling of your vehicle, damage the tyres and are rapidly
destroyed.
Note
We recommend that you use snow chains from the Škoda genuine accessories.
