USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNING
Snow tires must be the same size,load index and speed rating as thoseoriginally provided by Ford. Use ofany tire or wheel not recommended byFord can affect the safety andperformance of your vehicle, which couldresult in an increased risk of loss of control,vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.Additionally, the use of non-recommendedtires and wheels can cause steering,suspension, axle, transfer case or powertransfer unit failure. Follow the Fordrecommended tire inflation pressure foundon the Safety Compliance CertificationLabel (on the door hinge pillar, door latchpost or the door edge that meets the doorlatch post, next to the driver seat), or TireLabel on the B-Pillar or the edge of thedriver door. Failure to follow the tirepressure recommendations can causeuneven treadwear patterns and adverselyaffect the way your vehicle handles.
The tires on your vehicle have all-weathertreads to provide traction in rain and snow.However, in some climates, you may needto use snow tires or snow chains.
If you choose to install snow tires on yourvehicle, they must be installed on all fourwheels and they must be the same size,load index and speed rating as the originaltires listed on the tire inflation pressurelabel. The label is on the on the B-Pillar orthe edge of the driver door . Mixing tires ofdifferent size or construction on yourvehicle can adversely affect your vehicle’shandling and braking, and may lead to lossof vehicle control.
If you use snow chains, we recommendthat steel wheels of the same size andspecifications are used. Snow chains maydamage aluminum wheels.
Follow these guidelines when using snowchains:
•Avoid fully loading your vehicle.
•Only use small link snow chains ofapproximately 10mm with 215/55R16tires only.
•Only use small link snow chains ofapproximately 15mm with 195/65R15tires only.
•Only use snow chains on the tire sizeslisted above.
•Snow chains must be mounted in pairson the front axle.
•Install snow chains securely, make surethey do not touch any wiring, brakelines or fuel lines.
•Do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h) orthe maximum speed recommended bythe chain manufacturer, whichever isless.
•Remove snow chains when they are nolonger required.
