Maintenance and care
Using snow tires and chains
Snow tires must be the
same size and grade as the
tires you currently have on your
vehicle.
The tires on your vehicle have
all-weather treads to provide
traction in rain and snow. However,
in some climates, using snow tires
and chains may be necessary. Ford
offers snow chains as a Ford
approved accessory and
recommends use of these or their
equivalents. See your dealer or
qualified service technician for
more information on tire chains for
your vehicle. Follow these
guidelines when using snow tires
and chains:
•
Install chains securely, verifying
that the chains do not touch any
wiring, brake lines or fuel lines.
•
•
Install the chains on the rear
tires only.
Drive cautiously. If you hear the
chains rub or bang against the
vehicle, stop and retighten
