| Snow chains are permitted on the driven wheels only. |
| On four-wheel drive vehicles, snow chains may only be fitted on the front wheels (exception: rear wheels also on Audi Q5). |
| It is not possible to use snow chains with all wheel/tyre combinations. |
| If no particular type of snow chain is specified, you can use snow chains with fine-pitch links. The links must not protrude more than 15 mm from the tread and inside of the tyres (including tensioner). |
| On some models only special snow chains with fine-pitch links may be used with certain wheel/tyre combinations. |
| The maximum speed permitted by law when driving with snow chains is 50 km/h. |
| Snow chains should be removed when roads are free of snow. Otherwise the vehicle's handling will be more difficult, unnecessary stress is put on the tyres and the chains are worn more than under normal circumstances. |
