WARNING
•
Chains may scratch or chip
aluminum wheels. Install tire chains
on steel wheels only.
Driving with Wet Brakes:
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous.
Increased stopping distance or the
vehicle pulling to one side when
braking could result in a serious
accident. Light braking will indicate
whether the brakes have been
affected. Dry the brakes by driving
very slowly and applying the brakes
lightly until brake performance
returns to normal.

•
Chains may affect handling.
Don’t go faster than 50 km/h (30
mph) or the chain manufacturer’s
recommended limit, whichever is
lower.
•
Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, and sharp turns.
•
•
Avoid locked-wheel braking.
Don’t use chains on the temporary
tire; it may result in damage to the
vehicle and to the tire.
CAUTION
Make sure water does not enter the
vehicle interior or the engine area. The
vehicle interior could become wet or
the engine could be damaged.
•
Don’t use chains on roads that are
free of snow or ice. The tires and
chains could be damaged.
Check local regulations before using tire
chains.
Install the chains on the rear tires.
Don’t use chains on the front tires.
Use only SAE Class "S" chains, and make
sure they fit.
Installing the chains
1.
Remove the wheel covers, or the chain
bands will scratch them.

Secure the chains on the rear tires as
tightly as possible. Always follow the
chain manufacturer’s instructions.
3.
Retighten the chains after driving
1/2
—1 km (1/4—1/2 mile).
