Follow these guidelines when using snow tires and chains:

• Use only cable type chains offered by Ford as an accessory or

equivalent. SAE class “S” or other conventional link type chains may

cause damage to the vehicle’s wheel house and/or body.

• Install cable chains 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 your

vehicle, stop and re-tighten the cables. If this does not work, remove

the cables to prevent damage to your vehicle.

• If possible, avoid fully loading your vehicle.

• Remove the tire cables when they are no longer needed. Do not use

tire cables on dry roads.

• The suspension insulation and bumpers will help prevent vehicle

damage. Do not remove these components from your vehicle when

using snow tires and cables.

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

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT AUTOMOTIVE FUELS

Important safety precautions

Do not overfill the fuel tank. The pressure in an overfilled tank

may cause leakage and lead to fuel spray and fire.

The fuel system may be under pressure. If the fuel filler cap is

venting vapor or if you hear a hissing sound, wait until it stops

before completely removing the fuel filler cap. Otherwise, fuel may

spray out and injure you or others.

If you do not use the proper fuel filler cap, excessive pressure or

vacuum in the fuel tank may damage the fuel system or cause

the fuel cap to disengage in a collision, which may result in possible

personal injury.

Automotive fuels can cause serious injury or death if misused or

mishandled.
