SERVICING AND MAINTENANCE 317


Due to limited clearance, the following trac -
tion devices are recommended:
All Models:

The use of 7mm tire chains is permitted with
the use of 215/65R16 tires only. Chain front
tires ONLY. All other size tires are NOT chain -
able.

No other tire sizes can be chained.
Tire Rotation Recommendations
The tires on the front and rear of your vehicle
operate at different loads and perform different
steering, handling, and braking functions. For
these reasons, they wear at unequal rates.
These effects can be reduced by timely rotation
of tires. The benefits of rotation are especially
worthwhile with aggressive tread designs such
as those on On/Off Road 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” in this section
for the proper maintenance intervals. The
reasons for any rapid or unusual wear should be
corrected prior to rotation being performed.
CAUTION!

Use on front tires ONLY.

Damage may result if tire chains or traction
devices are used with original equipment
size tires.
WARNING!
Using tires of different size and type (M+S,
Snow) between front and rear axles can
cause unpredictable handling. You could lose
control and have a collision.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to your vehicle or tires,
observe the following precautions:

Because of restricted traction device clear -
ance between tires and other suspension
components, it is important that only trac -
tion devices in good condition are used.
Broken devices can cause serious damage.
Stop the vehicle immediately if noise
occurs that could indicate device breakage.
Remove the damaged parts of the device
before further use.

Install device as tightly as possible and
then retighten after driving about ½ mile
(0.8 km). Autosock traction devices do not
require retightening.

Do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h).

Drive cautiously and avoid severe turns and
large bumps, especially with a loaded
vehicle.

Do not drive for a prolonged period on dry
pavement.

Observe the traction device manufacturer’s
instructions on the method of installation,
operating speed, and conditions for use.
Always use the suggested operating speed
of the device manufacturer’s if it is less
than 30 mph (48 km/h).

Do not use traction devices on a compact
spare tire.
CAUTION! (Continued)
