Maintenance and Care
Owner Maintenance
NOTE
 
Always check tyre pressure when
tyres are cold.
 
Warm tyres normally exceed
recommended pressures. Do not
release air from warm tyres to adjust
the pressure.
 
UnderinÀ ation can cause reduced
fuel economy, uneven and
accelerated tyre wear, and poor
sealing of the tyre bead, which
will deform the wheel and cause
separation of tyre from rim.
 
OverinÀ ation can produce a harsh
ride, uneven and accelerated tyre
wear, and a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards.

Keep your tyre pressure at the correct
levels. If one frequently needs
inÀ ating, have it inspected.
Tyre Rotation
WARNING
Rotate tyres periodically:
Irregular tyre wear is dangerous. To
equalize tread wear for maintaining
good performance in handling and
braking, rotate the tyres every
10,000 km (6,250 miles), or sooner if
irregular wear develops.
During rotation, inspect them for correct
balance.
NOTE
(Without temporary spare tyre)
Because your vehicle is not equipped
with a spare tyre, you cannot do a tyre
rotation safely with the jack that comes
with your vehicle. Have an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer perform tyre rotation.
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE ONLY)
spare tyre in rotation.
Forward
Also, inspect them for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused
by one or a combination of the following:
 
Incorrect tyre pressure
 
Improper wheel alignment
 
Out-of-balance wheel
 
Severe braking
After rotation, inÀ ate all tyre pressures to
speci¿ cation (page 9-10 ) and inspect the
wheel nuts for tightness.
(With tyre pressure monitoring system)
After adjusting the tyre pressure,
initialization of the tyre pressure
monitoring system is necessary to make
the system operate normally.
Refer to Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization on page 4-192 .
