CAUTION!
To avoid damage to your vehicle or tires, observe the following
precautions:
Because of restricted chain clearance between tires and other sus-
pension components, it is important that only chains in good
condition are used. Broken chains can cause serious damage. Stop
the vehicle immediately if noise occurs that could indicate chain
breakage. Remove the damaged parts of the chain before further
use.
Install chains on the front wheels as tightly as possible and then
retighten after driving about
1
2
mile (0.8 km).
Do not exceed 45 mph (70 km/h).
Drive cautiously and avoid severe turns and large bumps, especially
with a loaded vehicle.
Do not use on rear wheels of All Wheel Drive (AWD) vehicles.
Do not drive for prolonged period on dry pavement.
Observe the tire chain manufacturers instructions on the method of
installation, operating speed, and conditions for use. Always use the
lower suggested operating speed of the chain manufacturer if
different than the speed recommended by the manufacture.
NOTE: In order to avoid damage to tires, chains, and
your vehicle do not drive for a prolonged period of time
on dry pavement. Observe the tire chain manufacturers
instructions on method of installation, operating speed,
and conditions for usage.
Always use the lower suggested operating speed if both
the chain manufacturer and vehicle manufacture suggest
a maximum speed. This notice applies to all chain
traction devices, including link and cable (radial) chains.
