When handling, installing and uninstalling tire chains, refer to the instruction manual
that is supplied with the tire chains and perform (un)installation following the
instructions provided by the manufacturer.
CAUTION
• Fit the tire chains securely without looseness. If the vehicle is driven with the
loosened tire chains, they may interfere with other components or come off,
leading to an unexpected accident.
• Do not exceed 30 km/h (19 MPH) or exceed the tire chain manufacturer's
suggested speed limit if it is lower than 30 km/h (19 MPH).
• If an abnormal sound is heard, it may indicate a possibility that a tire chain was
cut or came off partially. Immediately pull off to a safe place, and check the
fitting condition of the tire chains.
• The diesel particulate defuser (DPD), urea selective catalytic reduction (SCR),
muffler, and exhaust pipe are extremely hot when the engine is running or
immediately after the vehicle is driven, so be careful not to touch them.
• Be careful not to hurt yourself on the edges of the vehicle while working with the
tire chains.
ADVICE
• Do not install tire chains on the front tires. Make sure to fit the tire chains
suitable for the tire size on the rear wheels.
• If your vehicle has 265/60R18 size tires, use tire chains that conform to the
following specifications:
- Radial thickness 13 mm (0.5 in) Max
- Axial thickness 13 mm (0.5 in) Max
• When purchasing tire chains, fit them on the tires once and, if they are too long,
adjust them to suit the tires.
• Retighten chains after driving 0.4 to 0.8 km (0.25 to 0.5 miles).
