 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 spare tires should 
NEVER be used for long drives or 
extended periods.

WARNING

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

  Driving with the temporary spare tire 
on one of the front driving wheels is 
dangerous. Handling will be aff ected. 
You could lose control of the vehicle, 
especially on ice or snow bound roads, 
and have an accident. Move a regular 
tire to the front wheel and install the 
temporary spare tire to the rear.

CAUTION

¾

  When using the temporary spare tire, 

driving stability may decrease compared 
to when using only the conventional tire. 
Drive carefully.

¾

  To avoid damage to the temporary 

spare tire or to the vehicle, observe the 
following precautions:

¾

  Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).

¾

  Avoid driving over obstacles. Also, do 

not drive through an automatic car 
wash. This tire's diameter is smaller 
than a conventional tire, so the 
ground clearance is reduced about 10 
mm (0.4 in).

¾

  Do not use a tire chain on this tire 

because it will not fi t properly.

¾

  Do not use your temporary spare 

tire on any other vehicle, it has been 
designed only for your Mazda.

¾

your vehicle at the same time.
