Check local regulations regarding the use
of snow chains before installing.
Always follow the chain manufacturer’s
installation instructions carefully. Install
chains as tightly as possible and retighten
periodically.
Never exceed the chain manufacturer’s
specified maximum speed limit. (Under no
circumstances should you exceed 31 mph
(50 km/h)).
Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when
driving with snow chains.
The handling of the vehicle can be
adversely affected when driving with
chains. Avoid fast or sharp turns as well as
locked wheel braking.

•The jack’s attachment must engage the
bar in the jack attachment (see inset
illustration in right column on the
previous page). The car’s weight must
not rest on the jack attachment.
•Be sure the jack is on a firm, level,
non-slippery surface.
•Never allow any part of your body to
be extended under a car supported by a
jack.
•Use the jack intended for the car when
replacing a wheel. For any other job,
use stands to support the side of the car
being worked on.
•Apply the parking brake, select
position P (automatic transmission) or
Reverse gear (manual transmission).
•Block the wheels standing on the
ground, use rigid wooden blocks or
large stones.
•The jack should be kept well-greased.
