USING WINTER TIRES
Winter tires are more suitable during
extremes of low temperatures, snow and
ice and will considerably improve the
vehicle’s handling during these
conditions.
Do not exceed 240 km/h (150 mph) when
using Jaguar approved winter tires.
Winter tires must be fitted on all four
wheels.
Approved Winter tire sizes
Front: 245/45R18, Dunlop Wintersport

USING SNOW CHAINS
!
WARNING:
Trac DSC must be switched ON when
using snow chains. DSC would reduce
the deep snow traction capability as it
would limit wheel spin to a level below
that which is required to generate
maximum traction.
Caution: Do not fit snow chains to
20 inch tires.
Snow chains, of the recommended type,
can only be fitted to rear wheels. They
should not be used on temporary use
spare wheels.
You should contact your Jaguar Dealer
for details and availability of approved
snow chains.
The maximum speed when using snow
chains is 48 km/h (30 mph).
Remove the snow chains immediately the
roads are clear of snow.
Ensure the fitting instructions supplied
with the snow chains are kept in a safe
place, for example, with this literature
pack.
