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 front wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in your country on the use of snow chains and the maximum running speed authorised.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared of snow, to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road sur face. 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:
You can also use snow socks.For more information on snow chains, contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Advice on installation

moments, without exceeding 30 mph (50 km/h).F Stop your vehicle and check that the snow chains are correctly tightened.
