Tire Chains

Mount snow chains on your vehicle

when warranted by driving condi-

tions or required by local laws.

Use only SAE class "S" chains. Only

certain brands of chains will fit your

CR-V without coming in contact with

the body or causing mechanical

damage. Before buying any types of

chains, you should consult with your

Honda dealer about the designs and

brands that will work on your CR-V.

Also, make sure you purchase the

correct size for your tires.

Install the chains only on the front

tires. Mounting any type of chains on

the rear tires will damage the body

and suspension. When installing the

chains, follow the manufacturer's

instructions and mount them as

tightly as you can. Drive slowly when

they are installed. If you hear them

coming in contact with the body,

stop and investigate them. Make

sure the chains are installed tightly,

and that they are not contacting the

brake lines or suspension. Remove

the chains as soon as you begin

driving on cleared roads.

Chains that are the wrong size or

design, or are improperly installed, can

damage your vehicle's brake lines,

suspension, body, and wheels. Stop

driving if they are hitting any part of

the vehicle.
