CAUTION
!
●
For vehicle with 195/50R15 or 205/45R16 tyres,
chains should not be used. The clearance between
the chains and the body is small, and the body might
be damaged.
However, if chains must be used on vehicles with
195/50R15 or 205/45R16 tyres, because of the
adverse road conditions such as snow or ice, proceed
as follows:
Change all the original tyres (including wheels) to
175/65R14 tyres (14 x 5.5 J wheels) or 185/55R15 M
+ S tyres (15 x 6.0 J wheels) and then use the chains
on front wheels.
WARNING
!
●
DO NOT use a jack when fitting the chains, as in the
conditions, the tyres may slip on the icy road causing
the vehicle to slip off the jack.
CAUTION
!
●
Practice fitting the chains before you need them.
Don’t expect help from other people in the cold.
●
Choose a clear straight stretch of road where you
can pull off and still be seen while you are fitting the
chains.
●
Do not fit chains before you need them. This will
wear out your tyres and the road surface.
●
After driving around 100-300 metres, stop and
retighten the chains.
●
Care should be taken with extremes of steering lock
to prevent possible contact between the chains and
the vehicle body.
●
Drive carefully and do not exceed 50 km/h (31 mph).
Remember, fitting chains is not going to stop acci-
dents from happening.
●
When tyre chains are installed, take care that they
do not damage the disc wheel or body.
