requirements and that are the
correct size for the 275/40ZR20
tyres. Install them on the rear tyres
only, as tightly as possible with the
ends securely fastened.
{
Caution
Do not install traction devices on
the front tyres.
Drive slowly and follow the cable
manufacturer's instructions. If the
cables are contacting the vehicle,
stop and retighten them. If the
contact continues, slow down until it
stops.

Caution
To help avoid damage to the
vehicle, drive slowly, do not spin
the wheels, and readjust or
remove the device if it contacts
the vehicle.
If a Tyre Goes Flat
It is unusual for a tyre to blow out
while driving, especially if the tyres
are maintained properly. See
. If air goes out of a
tyre, it is much more likely to leak
out slowly. But if there is ever a
blowout, here are a few tips about
what to expect and what to do:
If a front tyre fails, the flat tyre
creates a drag that pulls the vehicle
toward that side. Take your foot off
the accelerator pedal and grip the
steering wheel firmly. Steer to
maintain lane position, and then
gently brake to a stop, well off the
road, if possible.
A rear blowout, particularly on a
curve, acts much like a skid and
may require the same correction as
used in a skid. Stop pressing the
accelerator pedal and steer to
straighten the vehicle. It may be
very bumpy and noisy. Gently brake
to a stop, well off the road,
if possible.

Warning
Driving on a flat tyre will cause
permanent damage to the tyre.
Re-inflating a tyre after it has
been driven on while severely
underinflated or flat may cause a
blowout and a serious crash.
Never attempt to re-inflate a tyre
that has been driven on while
severely underinflated or flat.
