Snow Traction Devices

If driving on snowy or frozen roads, mount winter tyres, or tyre chains; reduce
speed; and maintain sufficient distance between vehicles when driving.
Be particularly careful when operating the steering wheel or brakes to prevent
skidding.
Use tyre chains, winter tyres, or all season tyres when necessary or according to the law.
When mounting, refer to the following points.
For winter tyres:
• Select the size and load ranges that are the same as the original tyres.
• Mount the tyres to all four wheels.
For tyre chains:
• Consult a dealer before purchasing any type of chains for your vehicle.
• Install them on the front tyres only.
• Because your vehicle has limited tyre clearance, we strongly recommend using the
chains listed below:
Original Tyre Size
*1
225/50R18
*1:Original tyre size is mentioned on the tyre information label on the driver's
doorjamb.
• Follow the chain manufacturer's instruction when installing. Mount them as
tightly as you can.
• Check that the chains do not touch the brake lines or suspension.
• Drive slowly.

WARNING

Using the wrong chains, or not properly
installing chains, can damage the brake
lines and cause a crash in which you can be
seriously injured or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner's
manual regarding the selection and use of
tyre chains.
NOTICE
Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly installed
can damage your vehicle's brake lines, suspension, body, and
wheels. Stop driving if they are hitting any part of the vehicle.
According to the EU legislation for tyres, when winter tyres are
used, it is necessary to affix a sticker with the allowable max.
speed of the winter tyres clearly in the field of view of the
driver, if the designed max. speed of vehicle is higher than the
allowed max. speed of winter tyre. A sticker is obtainable from
your tyre dealer. If you have any question, consult a dealer.
When tyre chains are mounted, follow the chain manufacturer's
instructions regarding vehicle operational limits.
Use tyre chains only in an emergency or when they
are legally required for driving through a certain area.
Use greater caution when driving with tyre chains on snow or ice. They
may have less-predictable handling than good winter tyres without chains.
If your vehicle is equipped with summer tyres, be aware
that these tyres are not designed for winter driving
conditions. For more information, contact a dealer.
