WINTER MOTORING
During deceleration,  use engine braking
to the fullest extent. Sudden  brake appli-
cations on snowy or icy roads may cause
skids  to occur.  You need  to  keep  suffi-
cient  distance   between  the  vehicle  in
operation in front  and your vehicle. Also,
apply the brake gently. It should be noted
that installing tyre  chains on the tyre will
provide  a greater  driving  force,  but will
not prevent side skids.

Snow tyres  
If you mount snow  tyres on your vehicle,
make  sure  they are  radial  tyres  of  the
same size and load range as the original
tyres.  Mount   snow   tyres   on  all   four
wheels  to  balance  your  vehicle’s  han-

mind that  the traction  provided by  snow
tyres on dry roads may not be as high as
your  vehicle's  original equipment  tyres.
You  should drive  cautiously  even when
the roads  are clear. Check  with the  tyre
dealer  for  maximum speed  recommen-
dations.
NOTICE
Tyre  chains  are not  legal  in  all  states.
Check   state  laws   before   fitting   tyre
chains.
