SUPPLEMENTAL TIRE PRESSURE INFORMATION
A light load vehicle condition is defined as two passen-
gers {150 lbs (68 kg) each} plus 200 lbs (91kg) of cargo.
Cold tire inflation pressures for a lightly loaded vehicle
will be found on a ªSupplemental Tire Pressure Inflationº
label located on the face of the driver's door or in the Tire
Information Pressures pamphlet in the glove box.
TIRE CHAINS
Use only Class S chains, or other traction aids that meet
SAE specifications. Chains must be the proper size for the
vehicle as recommended by the chain manufacturer.
These cautions apply to all chain traction devices, includ-
ing link and cable (radial) chains.
CAUTION!
To avoid damage to your vehicle, tires or chains observe the following
precautions:
²Because of restricted chain clearance between tires and other suspen-
sion components, it is important that only chains in good condition
are used. Broken chains can cause serious damage. Stop the vehicle
immediately if noise occurs that could indicate chain breakage.
Remove the damaged parts of the chain before further use.
²Install chains as tightly as possible and then retighten after driving
about 1/2 mile (0.8 km).
²Do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h).²Drive cautiously and avoid severe turns and large bumps, especially
with a loaded vehicle.
²Install only Class S chains on 4x2 and 4x4 vehicles.²Do not install tire chains on the front wheels of 4x2 vehicles.²Do not install tire chains or traction devices on rear wheels of 4x2
vehicles with tires larger than LT225/75R16. These tires are too large
for sufficient body clearance with chains or other traction devices.
²Do not install tire chains or traction devices on front wheels of 4x4
models with tires larger than LT225/75R16. Do not install tire chains
or traction devices on rear wheels of 4x4 models with tires larger than
LT225/75R16. These tires are too large for sufficient body clearance
with chains or other traction devices.
²Do not drive for a prolonged period on dry pavement.²Tire chains are not allowed on 4x2 vehicles equipped with P255/65R16
or P255/55R17 tires or 4x4 vehicles equipped with P265/70R16 tires.
²Observe the tire chain manufacturer's instructions on method of
installation, operating speed, and conditions for usage. Always use
the lower suggested operating speed if both the chain manufacturer
and the vehicle manufacturer suggest a maximum speed.
