Owners Manual

BYD AUTO F3 OWNER’S MANUAL
173
When rotating tires, check for uneven
wear and damage. Abnormal wear is
usually caused by incorrect tire
pressure, improper wheel alignment,
out-of-balance wheels, or severe
braking.
Anti-skid chain selection
Use the tire chains of correct size.
Regulations regarding the use of
tire chains vary according to
location or type of road, so always
check local regulations before
installing chains.
Chain installation
Install the chains on the front tires
as tightly as possible. Do not use the
tire chains on the rear tires.
Retighten chains after driving
0.5― 1.0 km.
While installing chains on your tires,
follow the instructions of the chain
manufacturer carefully.
If wheel covers are used, they will be
scratched by the chain band, so
remove the covers before putting on
the chains.
CAUTION
● Do not exceed 50 km/h or the
chain manufacturer’s
recommended speed limit,
whichever is lower.
● Drive carefully. Avoid bumps,
holes, and sharp turns, which
may cause the vehicle to
bounce.
● Avoid sharp turns or
lock-wheel braking as use of
chains may adversely affect
vehicle handling.
● When driving with chains
installed, be sure to drive
carefully. Slow down before
entering curves to avoid losing
control of the vehicle.
Otherwise, an accident may
occur.
