Snow Chains - Fiat 600 Owner's Manual

SNOW CHAINS

The use of snow chains is regulated
by the legislation in force in the coun-
try the car is driven in.
The chains may only be applied to
the drive wheel tyres (front wheels).
Use only low profile chains (maxi-
mum height off the tyre: 12 mm).
We recommend using Lineaccessori
Fiat snow chains.
Check the tautness of the chains af-
ter driving some ten metres.
IMPORTANT Do not fit snow
chains on a space-saver spare wheel.
If a front wheel (drive wheel) is punc-
tured and you require snow chains to
proceed, take a standard wheel from
the rear axle and fit the space-saver
spare wheel in its place. Having fitted
two standard wheels on the front
drive axle, you can use snow chains,
thus solving the emergency situation.
Keep you speed down
when snow chains have
been fitted to the wheels.
Avoid potholes, steps and pave-
ments, and do not drive for long
stretches on snow-free roads,
otherwise you risk damaging the
tyres, suspension and steering.
