Tires (cont'd) Winter Driving Tires marked "M + S" or "all season" have an all-weather tread design and should be suitable for most driving conditions. However, snow tires and tire chains may be required under some conditions. If your tires do not have these markings, they may not be suitable for winter driving conditions. We recommend snow tires or tire chains for snow and icy conditions. Snow Tires If you use snow tires, they should be of the same size, construction and load capacity as the original tires on your car. Snow tires must be installed in sets of four, or they may cause poor handling. Driving with snow tires on dry roads can reduce your car's performance during acceleration, turning and stopping. If you need further information on snow tires, please contact your Honda dealer. Tire Chains Use chains only when conditions require them. Check with local authorities or Provinces for requirements prior to installing tire chains. Make sure the chains are the right size for your tires. Install them only on the drive wheels of your car, and do so as tightly as possible, following the manufacturer's instructions. If metal chains are used, they must be SAE Class " S . " Cable type traction devices can also be used. Drive slowly with chains installed. If you hear the chains contacting your car's body or chassis, stop and tighten them. CAUTION: If the contact continues, slow down until it stops or your car can be damaged. Chains that are the wrong size or improperly installed can damage your car's brake lines, suspension, body, and wheels. If you need further information on tire chains, please see your Honda dealer. Remove the chains as soon as the road is clear of ice and snow.

Tires (cont'd)
Winter Driving
Tires marked "M
+ S" or "all season" have an all-weather tread
design and should be suitable for most driving conditions. However,
snow tires and tire chains may be required under some conditions. If
your tires do not have these markings, they may not be suitable for
winter driving conditions. We recommend snow tires or tire chains
for snow and icy conditions.
Snow Tires
If you use snow tires, they should be of the same size, construction
and load capacity as the original tires on your car. Snow tires must
be installed in sets of four, or they may cause poor handling. Driving
with snow tires on dry roads can reduce your car's performance
during acceleration, turning and stopping.
If you need further information on snow tires, please contact your
Honda dealer.
Tire Chains
Use chains only when conditions require them. Check with local
authorities
or
Provinces
for
requirements
prior
to
installing
tire
chains. Make sure the chains are the right size for your tires. Install
them only on the drive wheels of your car, and do so as tightly as
possible, following the manufacturer's instructions. If metal chains
are used, they must be SAE Class "S." Cable type traction devices
can also be used.
Drive slowly with chains installed. If you hear the chains contacting
your car's body or chassis, stop and tighten them.
CAUTION:
If the contact continues, slow down until it stops or your car can
be damaged.
Chains that are the wrong size or improperly installed can
damage your car's brake lines, suspension, body, and wheels.
If you
need further
information on tire chains,
please see your
Honda dealer.
Remove the chains as soon as the road is clear of ice and snow.
