In Case of an Emergency
Flat Tire
Form No. 8S18-EA-03I
To remove the spare tire
(4 Door)
1. Remove the trunk mat and trunk board.
2. Turn the tire hold-down bolt
counterclockwise with the lug wrench.
To avoid damage to the temporary
spare or to the vehicle, observe the
following precautions:
•
Don’t exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
•
Avoid driving over obstacles.
Also, don’t drive through an
automatic car wash. This tire’s
diameter is smaller than a
conventional tire’s, so the ground
clearance is reduced about 25 mm
(1 in).
•
Don’t use a tire chain on this tire
because it won’t fit properly.
•
Don’t use your temporary spare on
any other vehicle; it has been
designed only for your Mazda.
•
Use only one temporary spare tire
on your vehicle at the same time.
NOTE
(With Tire Pressure Monitoring
System)
A tire pressure sensor is not installed
to the temporary spare tire. The
warning light will flash continuously
while the temporary spare tire is being
used (page 5-23).
