WARNING

Do not install the temporary spare tire
on the front wheels (driving wheels)
when driving 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

Ø

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

Ø

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

Ø

Do not exceed 80 km/h (50
mph).

Ø

Avoid driving over obstacles.
Also, do not 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).

Ø

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

Ø

Do not use your temporary
spare tire on any other vehicle;
it has been designed only for
your Mazda.

Ø

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

Ø

(With limited slip differential)

When using the temporary spare
tire on the front axle, replace it
with a standard tire as soon as
possible. The size difference
between the spare and the
standard tire will cause the limited
slip differential to malfunction.

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 5-28).
