Note: The vehicle's speed should be
limited to a maximum of 180 km/h (112
mph) when recommended winter tyres are
fitted. Failure to comply with this speed
restriction will mean that the tyres are
underinflated for the vehicle's speed. In
addition the TPMS will fail to warn of
underinflation at the correct pressure
thresholds for these higher speeds.
Contact your Retailer/Tyre distributor for
the supply of an appropriate label, which
should be placed within the driver's field
of vision, as a reminder of this speed
restriction.
Use of dedicated winter tyres may require
a change of wheel size, depending on the
original choice of wheel. All 4 wheels must
be changed.
If fitted with standard rubber valves, the
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
warning lamp will flash for 75 seconds and
then remain illuminated. The Message
centre will also display TYRE PRESSURE
MONITORING SYSTEM FAULT.
When the original wheels and tyres are
refitted, the vehicle will need to travel a
short distance to reset the TPMS and
extinguish the warning lamp.
USING SNOW CHAINS
Only use traction devices in heavy
snow conditions, on compacted
snow.
Never exceed 50 km/h (30 mph)
when traction devices are fitted.
Never fit traction devices to a
temporary use spare wheel.
Land Rover approved traction devices may
be used to improve traction on compacted
snow in heavy snow conditions. They
should not be used in off-road conditions.
If it becomes necessary to fit traction
devices where there is no compacted
snow, the following points must be
observed:
• Only Land Rover approved traction
devices should be used on the vehicle.
Only Land Rover approved traction
devices have been tested to make sure
they do not cause damage to the
vehicle. Contact a Retailer/Authorised
Repairer for information.
• The wheels and tyres fitted must
conform to the specifications of the
vehicle's original equipment.
• Do not fit traction devices to 18, 19 or
20 inch diameter wheels.
• Single sided Spike-spyder traction
devices or snow chains can be fitted
to only the front wheels of vehicles
fitted with 17 inch diameter wheels.
• Fit traction devices in pairs on the
same axle.
• Always read, understand and follow
the traction device manufacturer's
instructions. Pay particular attention to
the maximum speed and fitting
instructions.
• Avoid tyre/vehicle damage, by
removing the traction devices as soon
as the conditions allow.
