Driving Your Vehicle
6-50
CAUTION Always check chain installation for proper
mounting after driving about 0.3-0.6 mi.
(0.5-1 km) to ensure safe mounting.
Retighten or remount the chains if they
are loose.
Chain installation
When installing tire chains, follow the
manufacturer’s instructions and mount
them as tightly possible. Drive slowly (less
than 20 mph (30 km/h)) with chains
installed. If you hear the chains
contacting the body or chassis, stop and
tighten them. If they still make contact,
slow down until the noise stops. Remove
the tire chains as soon as you begin
driving on cleared roads.
When mounting snow chains, park the
vehicle on level ground away from traffic.
Turn on the vehicle Hazard Warning
Flasher and place a triangular emergency
warning device behind the vehicle (if
available). Always place the vehicle in P
(Park), apply the parking brake and turn
off the vehicle before installing snow
chains.

Winter Precautions
Use high quality ethylene glycol coolant
Your vehicle is delivered with high quality
ethylene glycol coolant in the cooling
system. It is the only type of coolant that
should be used because it helps prevent
corrosion in the cooling system,
lubricates the water pump, and prevents
freezing. Be sure to replace or replenish
your coolant in accordance with the
"Scheduled Maintenance Services"
section in chapter 9.
Before winter, have your coolant tested to
make sure that its freezing point is
sufficient for the temperatures
anticipated during the winter.
