And here's the decal from the same machine (2019 EX). It appears to indicate that an up and down measurement is required!

... and the tire arrows are "in and in".
I think the chain arrows are a simplified format to indicate "difference" in chain swing, versus "up" and "down". I am unsure how much it goes down in static position. A few millimeters?
