Avoid driving on roads that have been
cleared of snow, to avoid damaging
your vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. It is recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow
chains on a level and dry surface. If

check that no part of the chain or its
fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Take account of the legislation in force
in your country on the use of snow
