TYRES
(continued)
Use in winter
• Snow chains
For safety reasons, fitting snow
chains to the rear axle is strictly
forbidden.
• “Snow” or winter tyres
We would recommend that these
be fitted to all
four wheels
to
ensure that your vehicle retains
maximum road holding.
Note:
we would point out that
these tyres may sometimes have:
- a specific direction of rotation.
- a maximum speed index which
may
be
lower
than
the
maximum
speed
of
your
vehicle.
•
Studded tyres
This type of equipment may only
be used for a limited period and
as laid down by local legislation.
It is necessary to observe the
speed
specified
by
current
legislation.
As a minimum, these tyres may be
fitted to the two front wheels.
In
all
cases,
we
would
recommend that you contact
your RENAULT Dealer who will
be able to advise you on the
choice of equipment which is
most suitable for your vehicle.
Special note
14 inch wheels with 165/70 R14
renf tyre.
They may be fitted with chains,
provided
specific chains
are used.
Contact your RENAULT Dealer.
14 inch wheels with 165/75 R14 C
tyre
These
cannot be fitted with chains
.
Emergency
spare
wheels
for
temporary use.
They
cannot be fitted with chains.
If one of the front tyres is
punctured, it is therefore
essential
to fit one of the rear wheels in its
place and to fit the emergency
spare wheel in place of the rear
wheel.
Apart from these two specific
instances, chains may be fitted to
other
versions
without
any
restrictions.
