SNOW CHAINS
Use of snow chains should be in
compliance with local regulations.
The snow chains may be applied only to
the front wheel tyres (drive wheels).
Check the tension of the chains after
the first few metres have been driven.
IMPORTANT The spare wheel cannot
be fitted with snow chains. If the front
tyre has a puncture, replace a rear
wheel with the spare wheel and move
the rear wheel to the front axle. This
way, having two standard size wheels on
the front axle, is it possible to fit the
chains.
