Wheel covers

If the wheel trims and tyres used are not
Vauxhall-approved, make sure that the
tyres do not have a beaded edge –
see page 179.
Tyre chains
Restrictions and other instructions –
see page 280.
Tyre chains are only permitted on the
driven wheels (front axle). They must be
fitted to the tyres symmetrically in order to
achieve a concentric fit.
Always use fine mesh chains that add no
more than 10 mm to the tyre tread and the
inboard sides (including chain lock).
Wheel trim on steel wheels could come into
contact with parts of the chain and be
damaged. Remove the wheel trim –
see page 215.
Tyre chains may only be used at speeds up
to 30 mph (50 km/h) and, when travelling
on roads that are free of snow, they may be
used for brief periods only since they are
subject to rapid wear on a hard road and
may snap.
Temporary spare wheel
Tyre chains must not be used on the
temporary spare wheel. If you need to use
tyre chains after suffering a flat front tyre,
fit the temporary spare on the rear axle
and transfer one of the rear wheels to the
front axle.
For notes on the temporary spare wheel –
see page 212.
Wheel changing – see page 214.
Correct tyre pressure.
