AutoSock (fabric snow chain) on the
tires will provide a greater driving
force, but will not prevent side skids.
• Do not install studded tires without
first checking local and municipal
regulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
Chain Installation
When installing AutoSock (fabric snow
chain), follow the manufacturer's
instructions and mount them as tightly

they still make contact, slow down until
the noise stops. Remove the AutoSock
(fabric snow chain) as soon as you begin
driving on cleared roads.

chain), park the vehicle on level ground
away from traffic. Turn on the vehicle
Hazard Warning Flasher and place a

apply the parking brake and turn off the
engine before installing tire chains.
