Snow chains
QUICK HELP

AP-EXPERT-VU_EN_CHAP07_AIDE RAPIDE_ED01-2014
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 driving 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. Advice on installation

If you have to fit the chains during
a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat
surface 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.
Avoid driving on roads that have been
cleared of snow, to avoid damaging
your vehicle's tyres and the road surface. It
is recommended that before you leave, you
practise fitting the snow chains on a level
and dry surface. 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 the chains designed to be fitted to
the type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
Original tyre size Maximum link size.
215/65 R15 12 mm
215/60 R16
MICHELIN
215/60 R16
BRIDGESTONE
For more information on snow chains,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
