TIRE CHAINS
Before fitting chains, remove wheel cov-
ers (if so equipped) to avoid scratching
them.
• Follow the chain manufacturer’s in-
structions.
• Secure the chains on the front tires
as tightly as possible.
• Re-tighten the chains after driving
about 0.5 mile (about 1.0km)
Chains are not recommended for the
rear tires.

v WARNING
• Use the recommended wheels and
wheel lug nuts/bolts only.
Otherwise, you can lose control of
your vehicle and cause a collision
that can result in injuries or damage
to your vehicle or other property.
TIRE ROTATION
Front and rear tires perform different
jobs and can wear differently.
Normally, the front tires will wear faster
than rear tires. To prolong the life of
your tires and avoid uneven tread wear:
1. Rotate tires every 5,000 km
(3,000 miles).
2. Maintain proper tire pressure.
3. Check tightening of the lug nuts/
bolts.
See “HOW TO CHANGE A FLAT
TIRE” in the index.
WINTER TIRES
If you decide to use winter tires:
• Use them on all four wheels.
• Never exceed the maximum speed
specified by the tire manufacturer.
• Always use the tire pressure specified
by the tire manufacturer.
