Information
• Install AutoSock® (fabric snow chain)
only in pairs and on the rear tires. It
should be noted that installing
AutoSock (fabric snow chain) on the
tires will provide a greater driving force,
but will not prevent side skids.
• Do not install studded tires without first
checking local, state and municipal
regulations for possible restrictions
against their use.
Chain Installation
When installing AutoSock® (fabric snow
chain), follow the manufacturer's
instructions and mount them as tightly as
possible. Drive slowly (less than 20 mph
(30 km/h)) with AutoSock® installed. If
you hear the fabric snow chains
contacting the body or chassis, stop and
tighten them. If they still make contact,
slow down until the noise stops. Remove
the AutoSock® as soon as you begin
driving on cleared roads.
When mounting AutoSock®, park the
vehicle on level ground away from traffic.
Turn on the vehicle Hazard Warning
Flasher and place a triangular emergency
warning device behind the vehicle (if
available).
Always place the vehicle in P (Park), apply
the parking brake and turn off the engine
before installing tire chains.
NOTICE
When using AutoSock® (fabric snow
chain):
• Wrong size fabric snow chains or
improperly installed fabric snow chains
can damage your vehicle's brake lines,
suspension, body and wheels.
• If you hear noise caused by fabric snow
chains contacting the body, retighten
the fabric snow chains to prevent
contact with the vehicle body.
• To prevent body damage, retighten the
fabric snow chains after driving 0.3-0.6
mi. (0.5-1.0 km).
Winter precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high quality
ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant that
should be used because it helps prevent
corrosion in the cooling system,
lubricates the water pump and prevents
freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish
your coolant in accordance with the
maintenance schedule in chapter 9.
Before winter, have your coolant tested to
assure that its freezing point is sufficient
for the temperatures anticipated during
the winter.
Check battery and cables
Winter temperatures affect battery
performance. Inspect the battery and
cables, as specified in chapter 9. The
battery charging level can be checked by
an authorized retailer of Genesis Branded
products or in a service station.
