Tire Pressure Monitoring System - Ford Mustang 2017 Owner's Manual

Follow these guidelines when using snow
tires and chains:
• If possible, avoid fully loading your
vehicle
• Chains may damage aluminum wheels.
• Use ultra low profile cables, 10 mm or
less in dimension as measured on the
sidewall of your tire, with 255/40R19
on the rear axle only.
• Do not use snow chains or cables with
275/40R19 tires.
• Not all S-class snow chains or cables
meet these restrictions. Chains of this
size restriction will include a tensioning
device.
• Purchase chains or cables from a
manufacturer that clearly labels body
to tire dimension restrictions. The snow
chains or cables must be mounted in
pairs on the front or the rear tires only.
• Do not exceed 30 mph (50 km/h) if
recommended by the chain
manufacturer while using snow chains.
• Install cables securely, verifying that
the cables do not touch any wiring,
brake lines or fuel lines.
• Drive cautiously. If you hear the cables
rub or bang against the vehicle, stop
and retighten them. If this does not
work, remove the cables to prevent
vehicle damage.
• Remove the tire chains when they are
no longer needed. Do not use tire
chains on dry roads.
If you have any questions regarding snow
chains or cables, please contact your
authorized dealer.
