any tire is under-inflated, carefully drive the vehicle to the nearest

location where air can be added to the tires. Inflate all the tires to the

recommended inflation pressure.

SNOW TIRES AND CHAINS

WARNING: Snow tires must be the same size, load index, speed

rating as those originally provided by Ford. The use of

non-recommended tires and wheels could cause steering, suspension,

axle or transfer case/power transfer unit failure. Using any tire or

wheel not recommended by Ford may increase the risk of loss of

vehicle control or vehicle rollover, which could result in personal injury

or death.

The tires on your vehicle have all-weather treads to provide traction in

rain and snow. However, in some climates, using snow tires or traction

devices may be necessary. Ford offers tire cables as a Ford approved

accessory and recommends use of these or SAE class “S” tire cables. See

your authorized dealer for more information on tire cables for your

vehicle.

Follow these guidelines when using snow tires and traction devices:

• Use only SAE Class S chains.

• Cables should only be used on the rear wheels.

• Do not use tire chains, cables or optional traction devices on 17, 18 or

20 inch wheels and tires.

• Install cables securely, verifying that the cables do not touch any

wiring, brake lines or fuel lines.

• Drive cautiously. If you hear the cables rub or bang against the

vehicle, stop and retighten them. If this does not work, remove the

cables to prevent vehicle damage.

• Avoid overloading your vehicle.

• Remove the cables when they are no longer needed.

• Do not use cables on dry roads.

• Do not exceed 30 mph (48 km/h) with tire cables on your vehicle.

Consult your authorized dealer for information on other Ford Motor

Company approved methods of traction control.
