Snow chains

SNOW CHAINS
In wintry conditions, snow chains
improve traction as well as the
behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be tted
only to the driving wheels. They
must never be tted to "space-
saver" type spare wheels.
Take account of the legislation in
force in your country on the use
of snow chains and the maximum
running speed authorised.
Advice on installation
F If you have to t the chains during
a journey, stop the vehicle on a at
surface on the side of the road.
F Apply the parking brake and
position any wheel chocks to
prevent movement of your vehicle.
F Fit the chains following the
instructions provided by the
manufacturer.
F Move off gently and drive for a
few moments, without exceeding
30 mph (50 km/h).
F Stop your vehicle and check that
the snow chains are correctly
tightened.
It is recommended that before you
leave, you practise tting the snow
chains on a level and dry surface.
Use only the chains designed to be
tted to the type of wheel tted to your
vehicle:
For more information on snow chains,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualied workshop.

Avoid driving with chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow,
to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres
and the road surface. If your vehicle
is tted with alloy wheels, check that
no part of the chain or its xings is in
contact with the wheel rim.
