NOTICE
If your vehicle has 235/35R19 size
tyres, do not use tyre chain; they
can damage your vehicle (wheel,
suspension and body).
WARNING
The use of tyre chains may
adversely affect vehicle han-
dling:
• Drive less than 20 mph (30
km/h) or the chain manufac-
turer's recommended speed
limit, whichever is lower.
• Drive carefully and avoid
bumps, holes, sharp turns,
and other road hazards, which
may cause the vehicle to
bounce.
• Avoid sharp turns or locked
wheel braking.
Information
i
• Install tyre chains on the front tyres.
It should be noted that installing
tyre chains on the tyres will provide
a greater driving force, but will not
prevent side skids.
• Do not install studded tyres without
first checking local and municipal
regulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
Chain Installation
When installing tyre chains, follow
the manufacturer's instructions and
mount them as tightly possible. Drive
slowly (less than 20 mph (30 km/h))
with chains installed. If you hear the
chains contacting the body or chas-
sis, stop and tighten them. If they still
make contact, slow down until the
noise stops. Remove the tyre chains
as soon as you begin driving on
cleared roads.
When mounting snow chains, park
the vehicle on level ground away
from traffic. Turn on the vehicle
Hazard Warning Flasher and place a
triangular emergency warning device
behind the vehicle (if available).
Always place the vehicle in P (Park),
apply the parking brake and turn off
the engine before installing snow
chains.
