Check local regulations before using tire chains.

Install the chains on the front tires only.

Do not use chains on the rear tires.

Please consult your Toyota dealer.

Installing the chains

If your vehicle is equipped with wheel covers remove them, otherwise the chain bands will scratch them.
Secure the chains on the front tires as tightly as possible. Always follow the chain manufacturer’s instructions.
Retighten the chains after driving 1/4—1/2 mile (1/2—1 km).

If your vehicle is equipped with the tire pressure monitoring system, the system may not function correctly when using tire chains.
