• It is advisable that chains or snow tires be used
when traveling on an icy or snow-covered road. If

vehicle is apt to lose its traction, resulting in
losing the control of steering wheel.

Carefully fit chains on your tires so that the chain
band may not scratch the other parts or interrupt
their movements.

dimensions as the target tire.
(2) Fit the chains on the rear tires and tighten
them so that motions of the other parts may
not be interrupted.
