When driving Tire chains
Tire chains cannot be used on your vehicle because of the lack of
clearance between the tires and vehicle body.

device (such as spring chains) may be acceptable if use on your vehi-
cle is recommended by the device manufacturer, taking into acco unt
tire size and road conditions.
Follow the device manufacturer's instructions, especially regar ding
maximum vehicle speed.
To help avoid damage to your vehicle, drive slowly, readjust or
remove the device if it is contacting your vehicle, and do not spin your
wheels. Damage caused to your veh icle by use of a traction devi ce is
not covered under warranty.

confidence because you are using a traction device could easily lead
to a serious accident.
