Snow Traction Devices
If driving on snowy or frozen roads, mount winter tyres, or tyre chains; reduce
speed; and maintain sufficient distance between vehicles when driving.
Be particularly careful when operating the steering wheel or brakes to prevent skidding.
Use tyre chains, winter tyres, or all season tyres when necessary or according to the
law.
When mounting, refer to the following points.
For winter tyres:
• Select the size and load ranges that are the same as the original tyres.
• Mount the tyres to all four wheels.
For tyre chains:
• Consult a dealer before purchasing any type of chains for your vehicle.
• Install them on the front tyres only.
• Because your vehicle has limited tyre clearance, we strongly recommend using the
chains listed below:
*1:Original tyre size is mentioned on the tyre information label on the driver’s
doorjamb.
• Follow the chain manufacturer's instruction when installing. Mount them as
tightly as you can.
• Check that the chains do not touch the brake lines or suspension.
• Drive slowly.

NOTICE
Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly
installed can damage your vehicle's brake lines,
suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are
hitting any part of the vehicle.
When tyre chains are mounted, follow the chain
manufacturer's instructions regarding vehicle
operational limits.
Use tyre chains only in an emergency or when they
are legally required for driving through a certain area.
Use greater caution when driving with tyre chains on
snow or ice. They may have less-predictable handling
than good winter tyres without chains.
If your vehicle is equipped with summer tyres, be aware
that these tyres are not designed for winter driving
conditions. For more information, contact a dealer.

WARNING
Using the wrong chains, or not properly
installing chains, can damage the brake
lines and cause a crash in which you can be
seriously injured or killed.
Follow all instructions in this owner’s
manual regarding the selection and use of
tyre chains.
