Tires (cont'd)
Tire Chains
When required, tire chains should be installed on the front wheels. If
you are using metal type chains, make sure they are designated SAE
Class " S " . You may also use plastic or cable type "chains". Use
only the correct size chains recommended for your tire size and
make sure they are installed following the chain manufacturer's
instructions.
Once tire chains are installed, drive at less than 19 mph (30km/h)
on roads covered with snow or ice. To minimize tire and chain
wear, avoid driving on cleared roads with chains installed.
CAUTION:
Improper installation or loose tire chains may damage your car's
chassis and fenders.
NOTE:
Keep the manufacturer's installation instructions in your glove box
for future reference.
Tire Rotation
Tires may wear unevenly when used for a long time at the same
position on the car. To avoid this, rotate the tires every 7,500 miles
(12,000 km). If abnormal or uneven wear develops between
rotations, the cause should be found and corrected as soon as
possible. The illustration shows how the tires can be rotated. The
COMPACT spare tire must not be included in tire rotation.
NOTE:
Front brake pads should be inspected for wear whenever the tires
are rotated.
