Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.The snow chains must be fitted only
to the front wheels. They must never
be fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels. For more information on snow chains, contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop.

journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face

roads that have been cleared of snow,

no part of the chain or its fixings is in
contact with the wheel rim.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
chains and the maximum running
speed authorised.
