8. Solució De Problemes
Issue: Chains feel loose after initial installation.
Solució: This is common. Drive a short distance (approx. 100 meters) and then stop to re-tension the chains. The chains will settle into position, and re-tensioning ensures a snug fit.
Issue: Chains are difficult to install.
Solució: Ensure the chains are completely untangled before starting. Practice installation in a non-stressful environment. If the tire is partially deflated, it might make installation easier, but remember to re-inflate to the correct pressure immediately after installation.
Issue: Unusual noise or vibration while driving with chains.
Solució: Stop immediately and inspect the chains. They might be improperly installed, loose, or damaged. Ensure they are centered on the tire and properly tensioned. If damage is found, remove the chains and do not use them.
Issue: Chains are not fitting my tires despite being the correct size.
Solució: Double-check your tire size against the compatibility chart. Some vehicles are "non-catenable" due to limited clearance. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual. Ensure the chains are fully untangled and oriented correctly before attempting installation.
