WARNING!(Continued)
•Never use a tire with a smaller load index or
capacity, other than what was originally equipped
on your vehicle. Using a tire with a smaller load
index could result in tire overloading and failure.
You could lose control and have a collision.
•Failure to equip your vehicle with tires having
adequate speed capability can result in sudden tire
failure and loss of vehicle control.
CAUTION!
Replacing original tires with tires of a different size
may result in false speedometer and odometer read-
ings.
TIRE CHAINS (TRACTION DEVICES)
Use of traction devices require sufficient tire-to-body
clearance. Follow these recommendations to guard
against damage.
•Traction device must be of proper size for the tire, as
recommended by the traction device manufacturer.
•Install on front tires only
•Due to limited clearance, the following traction de-
vices are recommended:
Front Wheel Drive (FWD) Models
•Original equipment 215/60R17 and 225/55R18 tire
sizes are not chainable.
•The use of 7mm snow chains is permitted with the use
of 215/60R16 tires.

Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Non-Trailhawk Models with-
out a Two-Speed Power Takeoff Unit
•Original equipment 215/60R17 and 225/55R18 tire
sizes are not chainable.
•The use of 9mm snow chains is permitted with the use
of 215/60R16 tires.
Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Non-Trailhawk Models with a
Two-Speed Power Takeoff Unit
•The use of 7mm snow chains is permitted with the use
of 215/60R17 and 225/55R18 tires.
Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Trailhawk Models
•The use of 9mm snow chains is permitted with the use
of 215/60R17 tires.
CAUTION!
•Use on Front Tires Only
•Damage to Front Wheel Drive (FWD) Models may
result if tire chains or traction devices are used with
original equipment size tires.
•Damage to Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Models with-
out a Two-Speed Power Takeoff Unit may result if
tire chains or traction devices are used with origi-
nal equipment size tires.
•Damage to Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Trailhawk
Models 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.

type tires. Rotation will increase tread life, help to main-
tain mud, snow, and wet traction levels, and contribute to
a smooth, quiet ride.
Refer to the “Maintenance Schedule” for the proper
maintenance intervals. The reasons for any rapid or
unusual wear should be corrected prior to rotation being
performed.
The suggested Front Wheel Drive (FWD) rotation
method is the “rearward cross” shown in the following
diagram. This rotation pattern does not apply to some
directional tires that must not be reversed.
The suggested Four Wheel Drive (4WD) Tire rotation
method is the “forward-cross” shown in the following
diagram.

CAUTION!
Proper operation of four-wheel drive vehicles de-
pends on tires of equal size, type and circumference
on each wheel. Any difference in tire size can cause

damage to the power transfer unit. Tire rotation
schedule should be followed to balance tire wear.
VEHICLE STORAGE
If the vehicle should remain stationary for more than a
month, observe the following precautions:
•Park your vehicle in a covered, dry and possibly airy
location the windows open slightly;
•Check that the Electric Park Brake is not engaged.
•Disconnect the negative (-) terminal from the battery
