Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a safe distance between you and
the vehicle ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to road con-
ditions.
Park the vehicle and move the shift lever to P (Multidrive) or 1
(manual
transmission)
or R (multi-mode manual transmission or manual trans-
mission) without setting the parking brake. The parking brake may
freeze up, preventing it from being released. If necessary, block the
wheels to prevent inadvertent sliding or creeping.

Chain size is regulated for each tire size.

14 mm (0.55 in.) in width
25 mm (0.98 in.) in length
Regulations regarding the use of tire chains vary depending on loca-
tion and type of road. Always check local regulations before installing
chains.
