2018 FORD FUSION ENERGI traction control

All vehicles with directional tires(front tires on the left side of thediagram)
Sometimes irregular tire wear canbe corrected by rotating the tires.
USING SUMMER TIRES
Summer tires provide superiorperformance on wet and dry roads.Summer tires do not have the Mud andSnow (M+S or M/S) tire traction rating onthe tire side wall. Since summer tires donot have the same traction performanceas All-season or Snow tires, we do notrecommend using summer tires whentemperatures drop to approximately 45°F(7°C) or below (depending on tire wearand environmental conditions) or in snowand ice conditions. Like any tire, summertire performance is affected by tire wearand environmental conditions. If you mustdrive in those conditions, we recommendusing Mud and Snow (M+S, M/S),All-season or Snow tires.
Always store your summer tires indoors attemperatures above 19°F (-7°C). Therubber compounds used in these tires loseflexibility and may develop surface cracksin the tread area at temperatures below19°F (-7°C). If the tires have beensubjected to 19°F (-7°C) or less, warm
them in a heated space to at least 41°F(5°C) for at least 24 hours before installingthem on a vehicle, or moving the vehiclewith the tires installed, or checking tireinflation. Do not place tires near heatersor heating devices used to warm the roomwhere the tires are stored. Do not applyheat or blow heated air directly on the tires.Always inspect the tires after storageperiods and before use.
USING SNOW CHAINS
WARNING
If you choose to install snow tires onyour vehicle, they must be the samesize, construction, and load range asthe original tires listed on the tire placard,and they must be installed on all fourwheels. Mixing tires of different size orconstruction on your vehicle can adverselyaffect your vehicle's handling and braking,and may lead to loss of vehicle control.
Do not use snow chains or cables on thisvehicle as they may cause damage to yourvehicle which may lead to loss of vehiclecontrol.
Snow chains or cables have not beenapproved for use on your vehicle.
The original equipment tires on your vehiclemay have an all-weather tread design toprovide traction, handling, and brakingperformance in year-round driving. Youmay install snow tires for improved tractionwhen driving in areas with sustainedperiods of snow or icy driving conditions
