SNOW CHAINS
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the
behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels. They
must never be fitted to "space-saver" type spare wheels.
It is strongly recommended that before you leave, you practise
fitting the snow chains on a level and dry surface.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the type of wheel fitted to

For more information on snow chains, contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.
Take account of the legislation in force in your country on the use
of snow chains and the maximum running speed authorised.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared
of snow, to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road
surface. If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, check that no
part of the chain or its fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
