To minimize tyre and chain wear, do not continue to use tyre chains when they are no longerneeded. WARNING:
o When driving on roads covered with snow
or ice, drive at less than 30 km/h (20 mph).
o Use a tyre chains less than 10mm to 16", 17" tyre.
o Avoid sudden stop and turn.
o Tighten firmly not to hear contact sound, if it still sounds, remove the chains for dam-age protection. I060A01GK-EAT TYRE ROTATION The tyre wear characteristics will vary between each tyre dependant upon the conditions of use.It is normal for the front tyres to wear more rapidlythan those fitted to the rear of the vehicle andtherefore tyre rotation will provide a means ofhelping to ensure an even wear rate across thetyre set. For vehicles fitted with radial ply tyres,rotation should be confined to front to rear tyrealternation. It is not recommended that radial plytyres be rotated from side to side. NOTE: Aluminium wheels which are not supplied asOriginal Equipment should not be mixed onthe same vehicle with the original steel wheels.
WARNING:When rotating the 215/45 R17 tyres, ensure tofollow the"ROTATION" direction marked onthe sidewall of tyres.When rotating the tyres of the left and right,separate the wheel from the tyre and then re-assemble them. However, it is acceptablethat the steel spare wheel be used in conjunc-tion with Original Equipment aluminiumwheels since the offset of both wheels iscompatible. Radial and cross ply tyres shouldnot be mixed on the same vehicle.
I050A01GK-EAT TYRE CHAINSTyre chains should be installed on the front wheels. Be sure that the chains are installed inaccordance with the manufacturer's instructions.Refer to the following information.
