Winter Tires
If driving on snowy or frozen roads, mount all season marked M+S tires, snow tires,
or tire chains; reduce speed; and maintain sufficient distance between vehicles when
driving.
Be particularly careful wh en operating the steering wheel or brakes to prevent
skidding.
Use tire chains, snow tires, or all season tires when necessary or according to the
law.
When mounting, refer to the following points.1Winter Tires
NOTICE
Traction devices that are the wrong size or improperly
installed can damage your vehicle’s brake lines,
suspension, body, and wheels. Stop driving if they are
hitting any part of the vehicle.
When tire chains are mounted, follow the chain
manufacturer’s instructi ons regarding vehicle
operational limits.
If your vehicle is equipp ed with summer tires, be
aware that these tires are not designed for winter
driving conditions. For more information, contact a
dealer.
3WARNING
Using the wrong chains, or not properly
installing chains, can damage the brake
lines and cause a crash in which you can be
seriously injured or killed.
Follow all instruction s in this owner’s
manual regarding the selection and use of
tire chains.

uuChecking and Maintaining Tires uWinter Tires
Maintenance
For winter tires:
• Select the size and load ranges that are the same as the original tires.
• Mount the tires to all four wheels.
For tire chains:
• Install them on the front tires only.
• Because your vehicle has limited tire clearance, we strongly recommend using the
chains listed below:
*1: On 245/30ZR20 tires, you cannot install any type of tire chains. If you have to use
tire chains, replace the original tires with the 235/40R18 tires.
• Follow the chain manufacturer’s instruction when installing. Mount them as
tightly as you can.
• Check that the chains do not to uch the brake lines or suspension.
• Drive slowly.

uuChecking and Maintaining Tires uCold Weather Driving
Maintenance
Cold Weather Driving
Summer Only tires and Ultra High Perform ance (UHP) tires are very sensitive to
ambient temperatures and are designed to be used at temperatures above 45°F
(7°C). If the vehicle is operated with Summe r Only tires or UHP tires at temperatures
below 45°F (7°C), the tires will provide decreasing amounts of grip and other
performance attributes. If the vehicle is operated with Summer Only tires or UHP
tires at temperatures below –4°F (–20°C), th e tire tread may lose their elasticity and
become brittle, resulting in permanent damage to the tread. A damaged tire may
fail during use. Therefore, if you operate the vehicle when ambient temperatures are
below 45°F (7°C), we recommend that yo u install other tires (e.g., mud+snow,
winter) that are designed to provide a ppropriate performance attributes under the
anticipated conditions.

3WARNING
Use of Summer Only tires or Ultra High
Performance tires at temperatures below
45°F (7°C) may lead to a loss of
performance and control, which could
result in a crash, se rious injury or death.
