Maintenance

Spare Tyre *

Your Mazda has a temporary spare tyre.

The temporary spare tyre is lighter and smaller than a conventional tyre, and is designed only for emergency use and should be used only for VERY short periods. Temporary spare tyres should NEVER be used for long drives or extended periods.

WARNING

Do not install the temporary spare tyre on the front wheels (driving wheels): Driving with the temporary spare tyre on one of the front driving wheels is dangerous. Handling will be affected.

You could lose control of the vehicle, especially on ice or snow bound roads, and have an accident. Move a regular tyre to the front wheel and install the temporary spare tyre to the rear.

CAUTION

When using the temporary spare tyre, driving stability may decrease compared to when using only the conventional tyre. Drive carefully.

To avoid damage to the temporary spare tyre or to the vehicle, observe the following precautions:

To remove the spare tyre

  1. Lift the boot/luggage compartment mat.
