We recommends that drivers who normally encounter recurrentsnow and ice during wintertime fit their vehicles with dedicatedwinter / snow tires. However there also are drivers in areasoutside of America's snow belt where the roads are rarely, if evercovered with snow or ice. Unfortunately these drivers face veryperplexing problems when a freak snow or ice storm catches them offguard! Additionally the growing use of summer tires for OriginalEquipment (O.E.) applications, as well as for upgrading replacementtires, has stranded more than one motorist caught by unexpectedsnow or ice.

Temporary Winter Traction Aid for Vehicles

AutoSock is a proven temporary winter traction aid that is nowavailable in America for a wide range of vehicles. Tests carriedout by European car manufacturers and independent road andtransport research institutes have confirmed that AutoSockincreases traction on snow and ice substantially over summertires.

Developed in Norway and TÜV-approved in Germany, AutoSock islightweight and made from 100% high-technology fibers that stick tosnow and ice. These fibers, which are intended to fray with use,are arranged in a specific pattern to optimize their grip. Thespecially developed textile also has the ability to process thewater film often found between the tire and an icy or snowy roadgenerated by heat from the sun, vehicle load or wheel spin.

Because vehicles need the ability to stop and turn as well asaccelerate in slippery conditions, we recommend that AutoSockbe installed in sets of four. AutoSock is sold in pairs toaccommodate vehicles with staggered wheel and tire fitments(different sizes on their front and rear axles).

Comfortable While Driving – Maximum Speed 30 Miles perHour (mph)

AutoSock does not produce the loud rattling nor the bumpy rideassociated with snow chains. AutoSock does not damage the vehiclestructure or alloy wheels and are approved for speeds up to 30 mph(50km/h). Nevertheless, the driver's speed should remainappropriate for the weather and road conditions.

In What Sort of Conditions Can AutoSocks BeUsed?

AutoSock will greatly enhance traction on snowy or icy surfaces.It is recommended that AutoSock be removed when the vehicle returnsto roads where no snow or ice is present. Driving on dry or wetroads is not recommended as it increases fabric wearconsiderably.

Simple to Install and Remove Even in ColdWeather

Stop the vehicle and apply the parking brake. The vehiclemust not be on a slope during installation. The AutoSock is pulledover the top of the tire and downwards as far as possible. Then thevehicle is moved forward or backward about one yard, and theremainder is pulled into position. AutoSock will automaticallycenter when driving begins. The same basic directions apply if thevehicle is already stuck, however only a small amount of wheel spinis used instead of moving the car in that case.

What about When AutoSocks are Removed from theVehicle?

AutoSock is likely to be wet and probably dirty. They should beput back in their storage bag using the gloves provided. Afterreaching the destination, AutoSocks should be dried and the dirtshaken out, and can be machine washed. AutoSock is reusable, easyto store and should be put back in the vehicle for the next time arare snow or ice storm arrives!

NOTE: AutoSock is not considered a traction device in severesnow conditions and cannot be substituted for chains for travelthrough mountain passes.@@@@@@@
