Snow chains
165Winter tyres
Summer tyres have less grip on ice, snow and at temperatures below 7 °C. This
is especially true of low-profile tyres or high-speed tyres .
The handling of your vehicle will be significantly improved when driving on
wintry roads if you fit winter tyres.
To get best possible handling, winter tyres must be used on all four wheels.
The minimum tread depth should be 4 mm.
Winter tyres (marked with M+S and a peak/snowflake symbol) of a lower speed
category can be used provided that the permissible maximum speed of these
tyres is not exceeded even if the possible maximum speed of the vehicle is
higher.
On vehicles with the infotainment system with key the speed limit can be
set for winter tyres » User manual Infotainment , chapter Adjust vehicle sys-
tems (key CAR) .
For other vehicles, there is the possibility to have the speed limit set for winter
tyres in a specialist workshop.
Only use those winter tyres or wheel rims which have been approved by
ŠKODA for your model of vehicle.
For the sake of the environment
Re-fit the summer tyres at an appropriate time as they provide better handling
properties, a shorter braking distance, less tyre noise, and reduced tyre wear
on roads which are free of snow and ice as well as at temperatures above 7 °C.
The fuel consumption is also lower.
Snow chains
When driving on wintry roads, snow chains improve not only traction, but also
the braking performance.
Snow chains must only be mounted on the front wheels.
Only fit snow chains with links and locks not larger than 12 mm.
For technical reasons, it is only permissible to fit snow chains with the follow-
ing wheel/tyre combinations. 
