Locking Lug Nuts

í

If your vehicle has Mazda optional
antitheft wheel lug nuts, one on each
wheel will lock the tires and you must use
a special key to unlock them. This key
will attach to the lug wrench. Register
them with the lock manufacturer by filling
out the card provided in the glove
compartment and mailing it in the
accompanying envelope. If you lose this
key, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
or use the lock manufacturer's order form,
which is with the registration card.
Accessory wheel locks cannot be used on
steel wheels. This includes situations
when the spare tire is installed. If the
spare tire is installed, one of the original
lug nuts (which should still be in the
vehicle) must be installed in place of the
wheel lock.
