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 affected.
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

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, so the ground
clearance is reduced about
35 mm (1.4 in).

Ø

Do not use tire chains on any
type of tire, including the spare
tire.

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.
