Limitations 3191.
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
driven wheels (front axle). They must be
fitted to the tyres symmetrically in order to
achieve a concentric fit.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no
more than 10 mm to the tyre tread and the
inboard sides (including chain lock). Remove the wheel trims when using tyre
chains 3137.

are free of snow, they may only be used for
brief periods.
Tyre chains must not be used on the
temporary spare wheel. If you need to use

fit the temporary spare on the rear axle
and transfer one of the rear wheels to the
front axle.
