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
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face
on the side of the road.
F

A

wheel chocks to prevent movement of
your
vehicle.
F

moments, without exceeding 30 mph
(50

F

S
top 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 with snow chains on roads
that have been cleared of snow, to
avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and
the road 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:
Original equipment tyre size Maximum link size
215/70 R16 12 mm
225/55 R18
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry sur face.
