Spare Tire

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

WARNING

Driving with a Temporary Spare Tire
on Ice or Snow:
Driving with a spare tire on the front
(driving) wheels on ice or snow is
dangerous. Handling will be affected.
You could lose control of the vehicle
and have an accident. Put the spare
tire on the rear axle and move a
regular tire to the front.

CAUTION

l

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

l

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

l

Don't exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).

l

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).

l

Don't use a tire chain on this tire
because it won't fit properly.

l

Don't use your temporary spare
on any other vehicle; it has been
designed only for your Mazda.

l

Use only one temporary spare tire
on your vehicle at the same time.
