Dark Vapor Or Black Satin Chrome Wheels
CAUTION!
If your vehicle is equipped with Dark Vapor
or Black Satin Chrome wheels DO NOT
USE wheel cleaners, abrasives or polish-
ing compounds. They will permanently
damage this finish and such damage is not
covered by the New Vehicle Limited War-
ranty. USE ONLY MILD SOAP AND WATER
WITH A SOFT CLOTH. Used on a regular
basis; this is all that is required to main-
tain this finish.
Tire Chains (Traction Devices)
Due to limited clearance, tire chains or trac-
tion devices are not recommended.
CAUTION!
Damage to the vehicle may result if tire
chains are used.
Tire Rotation Recommendations
The tires on the front and rear of your vehicle
operate at different loads and perform differ-
ent steering, driving, and braking functions.
For these reasons, they wear at unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely rota-
tion of tires. The benefits of rotation are
especially worthwhile with aggressive tread
designs such as those on all season type
tires. Rotation will increase tread life, help to
maintain mud, snow and wet traction levels,
and contribute to a smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the “Maintenance Plan” for the
proper maintenance intervals. The reasons
for any rapid or unusual wear should be
corrected prior to rotation being performed.
The suggested rotation method is the “for-
ward cross” shown in the following diagram.
This rotation pattern does not apply to some
directional tires that must not be reversed.
