crash. Use another type of traction

size combination and road conditions.

instructions. To avoid vehicle
damage, drive slowly and readjust or
remove the traction device if it
contacts the vehicle. Do not spin the
wheels. If traction devices are used,
install them on the front tyres.

chains which are permitted for Opel
