NOTE

l

Check the tire inflation pressure label
(driver's door frame) for the correct
tire inflation pressure.

l

Do not use the compressor for longer
than 10 minutes because using the
compressor for long periods could
damage it.

l

If the tire does not inflate, repair of
the tire may not be possible. If the
tire does not reach the correct
inflation pressure within a 10-minute
period, it probably has received more
extensive damage. When this
happens, the emergency flat tire
repair kit cannot be used to repair the
tire. Contact an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

l

If the tire has been over-inflated,
loosen the screw cap on the
compressor and bleed some of the air
out.

17. When the tire has been inflated to the

proper inflation pressure, turn the
compressor switch off and remove the
compressor hose from the tire valve.

18. Install the tire valve cap.

19. Put the emergency flat tire repair kit

in the trunk and continue driving.

CAUTION

l

Drive carefully to an Authorized
Mazda Dealer and keep the vehicle
speed below 80 km/h (50 mph).

l

If the vehicle is driven 80 km/h (50
mph) or higher, the vehicle might
begin to vibrate.

20. After driving the vehicle for 10

minutes or 5 km (3 miles), check the
tire pressure with the tire pressure
gauge equipped with the compressor.
If the tire pressure has fallen below
the correct tire pressure, inflate the
tire to the correct pressure again
following the steps from number 15.

CAUTION

l

If the tire inflation pressure falls
below 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm

2

or bar,

18.9 psi), repair cannot be done with
the repair kit. Park the vehicle on a
level surface off the right-of-way and
contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

l

If the tire inflation pressure
continues to remain low after
repeating steps 14 to 21, park the
vehicle on a level surface off the
right-of-way and contact an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.

NOTE

When checking the tire inflation
pressure with the tire pressure gauge on
the compressor unit, make sure the
compressor switch is turned off.

21. If the tire inflation pressure remains

stable, the tire repair is complete.
Drive the vehicle with care to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer to have the
tire replaced.
