CAUTION

Limited-Slip Differential system;

don't use the following:

Ø

Tires not of the designated size

Ø

Tires of different sizes or types at

the same time

Ø

Tires not sufficiently inflated

If these instructions aren't followed,

the rotation of the left and right

wheels will be different and will thus

apply a constant load on the limited-

slip differential.

This will cause a malfunction.

q

Replacing a Tire

WARNING

Always use tires that are in good

condition:

Driving with worn tires is dangerous.

Reduced braking, steering, and

traction could result in an accident.

Replace all four tires at the same time:

Replacing just one tire is dangerous.

It could cause poor handling and

poor braking resulting in loss of

vehicle control. Mazda strongly

recommends that you replace all four

tires at the same time.

CAUTION

(With Tire Pressure Monitoring

System)

When replacing/repairing the tires or

wheels or both, have the work done

by an Authorized Mazda Dealer, or

the tire pressure sensors may be

damaged.

NOTE

(With Tire Pressure Monitoring System)

l

When tires with steel wire reinforcement in
the sidewalls are used, the system may not
function correctly even with a genuine
wheel.
Refer to System Error Activation on page
5-35.

l

Be sure to install the tire pressure sensors
whenever tires or wheels are replaced.
Refer to Tires and Wheels on page 5-35.

If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
will appear as a solid band across the
tread.
Replace the tire when this happens.

New tread

Tread wear indicator

Worn tread

You should replace the tire before the
band crosses the entire tread.

NOTE

Tires degrade over time, even when they are
not being used on the road. It is recommended
that tires generally be replaced when they are
6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates
or frequent high loading conditions can
accelerate the aging process. You should
replace the spare tire when you replace the
other road tires due to the aging of the spare
tire. The period in which the tire was
manufactured (both week and year) is
indicated by a 4-digit number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on page 9-24.
