THE
SAFETY
CHAIN
There are different safety
chain
requirements by the various
states.
As
delivered
by
your dealer, your vehicle
is
equipped
with
chains
to meet
SAE
standard requirements for
maximum
gross
trailer
weight.
Always
have the safety
chain
(s)
attached when towing.
Install
them
in
a
manner so they
do
not restrict
sharp
turns
of
the
tow vehicle-trailer combination, but tight enough so they
do
not
drag on the road.
