CAUTION!
To avoid damage to your vehicle, tires or chains, observe the
following precautions:
•
Because of limited chain clearance between tires and other
suspension components, it is important that only chains in
good condition are used. Broken chains can cause serious
vehicle damage. Stop the vehicle immediately if noise occurs
that could suggest chain breakage. Remove the damaged parts
of the chain before further use.
•
Install chains as tightly as possible and then retighten after
driving about 1/2 mile (0.8 km).
•
Do not exceed 45 mph (72 km/h).
•
Drive cautiously and avoid severe turns and large bumps,
especially with a loaded vehicle.
•
Do not install tire chains on front wheels of 4x2 vehicles.
•
Do not drive for a prolonged period on dry pavement.
•
Observe the tire chain manufacturer’s instructions on method
of installation, operating speed, and conditions for usage.
Always use the lower suggested operating speed of the chain
manufacturer if different than the speed recommended by the
manufacturer.
These cautions apply to all chain traction devices, includ-
ing link and cable (radial) chains.
Tire chain use is permitted only on the rear tires of
SRT–10 Models.
NOTE: The use of class “S” chains is permitted on SRT–
10 Models with the use of 17 x 8 steel wheels (part
number 52113265AC) available from your authorized
dealer.
CAUTION!
Do not use tire chains on the front wheels. There
may not be adequate clearance for the chains and
you are risking structural or body damage to your
vehicle.
