It is strongly recommended that before you   leave,   you   practise   fitting   the   snow  
c

hains   on   a   level   and   dry   sur face.
Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
T he   snow   chains   must   be   fitted   only  
t

o   the   front   wheels.   They   must   never  
b

e fitted to "space-saver" type spare
wheels.
Take
  account   of   the   legislation   in   force  
i

n your country on the use of snow
chains
  and   the   maximum   running  
s

peed

Avoid
  driving   with   snow   chains   on  
r

oads that have been cleared of snow,
to
  avoid   damaging   your   vehicle's   tyres  
a

nd   the   road   sur face.   If   your   vehicle  
i

s   fitted   with   alloy   wheels,   check   that  
n

o   part   of   the   chain   or   its   fixings   is   in  
c

ontact   with   the   wheel   rim.
Advice on installation

Energy economy modeSystem which manages the period of use of certain functions to conserve a sufficient level of charge in the battery.
A fter   the   engine   has   stopped,   you   can   still   use   functions   such   as   the   audio   equipment,   windscreen   wipers,   dipped   beam   headlamps,   courtesy   lamps,  
e

tc.   for   a   maximum   combined   period   of   thirty   minutes.
This
  period   may   be   greatly   reduced   if  
t

he   battery   is   not   fully   charged.
A
  flat   battery   prevents   the   engine   from  
s

tarting   (refer   to   the   corresponding  
par

agraph).
