In cold weather
<Vehicles other than FG models>
•
On FG models, tire chains cannot be used on
both front and rear wheels.
•
Make sure that tire chains are installed properly
so that they do not become loose and interfere
with other vehicle parts while the vehicle is in
motion.
•
Use triple chains corresponding to tire size.
CAUTION
•
Do not use chains on the front wheels on FE
models; instead, use of snow tires is recom-
mended.
•
When fitting tire chains, refer to the instruc-
tions supplied with them.
•
Drive at low speeds, desirably at speeds
lower than 30 km/h (19 mph), when chains
are installed on wheels.
•
Driving on a dry road with chains installed
may damage the chains as well as the road
surface. Avoid doing so as far as possible.
•
Make sure that the chains and their spring
bands are not excessively worn or otherwise
damaged.
•
If you hear an abnormal noise while driving,
stop the vehicle in the nearest safe place and
check the tire chains.
