Tire Chains
NOTICE:
If your vehicle has P235/75R15, P235/70R15 or
31x10.50Rl5LT/C size tires, don’t use tire chains.
They can damage your vehicle because there’s
not enough clearance.
Use another type of traction device only if its
manufacturer recommends
it for use on your
vehicle and tire size combination and road
conditions. Follow that manufacturer’s
instructions.
To help avoid damage to your
vehicle, drive slowly, readjust or remove the
device
if it’s contacting your vehicle, and don’t
spin your wheels.
NOTICE: (Continued)
NOTICE: (Continued)
If you do find a traction device that will fit, install
them on the rear tires.
If you have other size tires, use tire chains only
where legal and
only when you must. Use only
SAE Class “S”’type chains that are the proper
size for your tires. Install them
on the drive axle
tires (four-wheel-drive vehicles can use chains on
both axles) and tighten them
as tightly as possible
with the ends securely fastened. Drive slowly and
follow the chain manufacturer’s instructions.. If
you can .hear the chains contacting your vehicle,
, stop and retighten them. If the contact continues,
slow down until it stops. Driving too fast or
spinning the wheels with chains
on will damage
your vehicle.
