4-3 Main Points of Application 133
■ After antiskid chains are installed, the vehicle should be driven at a speed
lower than 30 km/h on an ice and snow covered road.
■ To minimize wear of tires and antiskid chains, be sure to avoid installing
antiskid chains on the vehicle and driving it on a road not covered by ice or
snow.
■ Drive the vehicle at a speed not exceeding 30 km/h or the speed limit
specified by the antiskid chain manufacturer, whichever is smaller.
■ Drive carefully and pay attention to bumps, holes and sharp turns, which
may cause the vehicle to jump.
■ Avoid sharp turns or wheels lock-up in braking when driving the vehicle
equipped with antiskid chains, and slow down before taking turns to avoid
the accidents due to loss of control over the vehicle.
■ Tires installed with antiskid chains should be used symmetrically, and
those not used should be removed immediately.
