General rules for the use of tire chains are as follows:

• Consult your owner's manual to see if tire chains can be used on your vehicle.
• Make sure chains are properly sized for your tire. Proper fit is very important.
• Install as tightly as possible by hand for maximum chain life and performance.
• Pull completely off the road and out of the way of traffic before installing, servicing, or removing tire chains.
Do not deflate tires to install tire chains. (Tires should be normal inflation.)
• Drive approximately 1/4 mile. Stop and re-tighten chains. Extra links (depending on chain style) may be cut off or zip tied. Keep chains tight to snug throughout the operation.
• Do not exceed 30 miles per hour. Accelerate and decelerate slowly. Avoid spinning or locking of wheels.
• If chains should fail, stop immediately and repair or remove. Do not drive with a broken tire chain.
• Avoid hitting curbs with tire chains.
• Tire chains are not designed for towing.
