Practical information
For more information on snow chains,
contact a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when
braking.
Advice on installation
)
If you have to fit the chains during a
journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
)
Apply the parking brake and position any
wheel chocks to prevent movement of your
vehicle.
)
Fit the chains following the instructions
provided by the manufacturer.
)
Move off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50 km/h).
)
Stop your vehicle and check that the snow
chains are correctly tightened.
The snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels. They must never
be fitted 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.
Avoid driving on roads that have been
cleared of snow, to avoid damaging
your vehicle's tyres and the road
sur face. It is recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face. If
your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels,
check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Use only chains designed for fitment to the type
of road wheels on your vehicle:
