HOW SNO SIMPLE WORKS
Selecting your size
The Sno Simple Shield
Selecting your size
Four sizes are available to cover a large variety of car sizes: Generally, Compact; for smaller cars, Regular, for most sedans, Medium for smaller SUV's and Large for larger SUV's. However, we strongly recommend measuring your wheel arch area as variability exists between cars and even wheel arches on the same cars. Measure the height of your wheel well from the ground to the rim in the center of the arch area. Select the size according to the sizing scale

The tire lock is a waterproof, weighted mat that has two functions. Firstly, by parking on it, the weight of the car wheel effectively locks the device to your car. Secondly, the mat creates a weighted base to prevent the Shield from blowing or moving during excessive wind or storms.The tire lock may either be used as a security lock or placed next to the tire if that is not required.

The Shield is the waterproof, foldable cover that covers your wheel well area and prevents snow from entering. Attach to the wheel hub so it is secure and cannot move away, and tuck under the car rim for extra stability. Following use, wipe it and fold it up for storage by twisting on either side into a progressively smaller, compact circle and unfold for use.
The Hub Lock

The hub lock is a large silver snow flake chrome and zinc alloy grommet on the front of the Shield. It is used to connect the Shield to the wheel hub area so the Shield cannot move or be blown out of position during a snow storm It is connected to the hub using snap hooks and steel locking cords (included in a set). It can be used with a padlock for added security or if the tire lock is not used, Padlocks (not included) should be suitable for freezing temperatures and moisture.The Hub Lock should always be connected to prevent the Shield from moving out of position.

There are two flaps located on either side of the Sno Simple Shield. Plastic inserts should be inserted into these flaps when the device is in use. These flaps provide additional coverage at the front and back of your tire to keep a snow/ice free zone around these critical areas. You can also use them to the side of the Shield, as you prefer. When not in use, store them in their separate storage pouch.

We offer a Sno Simple chamois to clean off any snow, ice or dirt from your Sno Simple shield following use. A Sno Simple kneel pad is useful to kneel on when installing, cleaning or removing your device. A handy collapsible traffic safety cone can be placed near the car during installation or removal if needed.
SO WHAT'S IN MY PACK?
Two Sno Simple Wheel Shields
Each pack comes with two Shields to fit two tires and wheel arches. Use on tires that are most exposed to snow for best results.
Four Triangle inserts and two storage cases
Each Shield has 2 triangle shaped flaps on each side. The inserts should be placed inside them to create a rigid shape during use. When packing up for storage, remove the inserts and store two in each waterproof covered pouch provided.
Six snap hooks
Use one snap hook to connect the tire lock mat to the Wheel Protector Shield when in use. Use the other snap hooks in the hub lock to help connect the Shield to the car tire.
Two locking cords
Use one locking cord per Shield. The locking cord attaches the Shield to the car using the Car Hub spaces and the Hub Lock. Note: if your hub has no spaces you will need an alternative locking cord that is sold separately to replace the ones in the pack. In this case, the longer wire is places around the perimeter of the tire and connection proceeds as normal. Find them here.
One large backpack and 2 mesh storage bags
Each Shield can be stored in the two mesh bags provided. These bags are mesh to allow for the draining of excess moisture following use. These can then be placed in the larger backpack. Some mesh at the back of the backpack allows for additional drainage and drying if required.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
Sno Simple Kneel Pad
The kneel pad is helpful to use when kneeling down to install, clean or remove the Shield from your car tire. Fits easily into the backpack or the front zippered pocket of the backpack.
Sno Simple Chamois
The chamois is used to clean your Sno Simple Shield from dirt, moisture or ice following use and before storage. Store in its own cylinder tube.
Sno Simple Traffic Safety Cone
The traffic safety cone can be used during installation and removal of the Shield if additional safety is required, for example if parked on a busy road. The safety cone folds up into a zippered bag for neat and easy storage.
