182 Starting and driving
Remember that tires age: it may therefore
be necessary to change winter tires before
they reach the legal wear limit, as they grad-
ually lose their friction properties with age.
If you get into a front wheel skid and the car
has a manual transmission, the best
response is to freewheel, which means
declutching so that the wheels neither drive
nor brake, and to cautiously steer in the
desired direction.
If the car has automatic transmission, ease
off the accelerator slightly and steer cau-
tiously in the desired direction.
If you get into a rear wheel skid, steer in the
same direction as the movement of the rear
of the car. Driving with tire chains
Snow chains must only be fitted to the wheel
and tire dimensions that Saab recommends
in "Technical data" on page 267.
Contact a Saab dealer regarding approved
tire chains. See also page 240.
WARNING
• Do not drive at speeds above 30 mph
(50 km/h) when tire chains are fitted.
• Tire chains can reduce directional
stability.
• Do not fit tire chains to the car’s rear
wheels.
NOTICE
• Check the links frequently for wear.
• Check that the chains do not foul the
wheel arch liner at full lock.
• Refer to the "Technical data" section
on page 267, for information on wheel
and tire dimensions approved for the
fitting of tire chains.
