SNOW CHAINS
Use of snow chains should be in com-
pliance with local regulations.
The snow chains may be applied only
onto the front wheel tyres (drive
wheels). Use of Lineaccessori Lancia
snow chains is recommended.
Check the tension of the chains after
the first few metres have been driven.
IMPORTANT Snow chains cannot be
fitted on the space saver wheel. In
case of puncture to a front tyre, re-
place a rear wheel using the space
saver spare and fit the normal size
wheel on the front axle. In this way,
you can fit snow chains on the two
front wheels.
The tyres which are suitable for fitting snow chains and the type
of chain which can be used are shown in the table above. Follow
indications carefully.
Keep your speed down when snow chains are fitted. Do not
exceed 50 km/h. Avoid potholes, steps and pavements and
also avoid driving long distances on roads not covered with
snow in order to prevent damaging the car and the roadbed.
