CAUTION

Ø

Before pulling out the compressor
plug from the electrical socket,
make sure the compressor power
switch is off.

Ø

The compressor turns on and off
with the push-button switch.

16. Turn the compressor switch on and

inflate the tire carefully to the correct
inflation pressure.

WARNING

Never operate the compressor above
300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm

2

, 3 bar, 43.5 psi):

Operating the compressor above 300
kPa (3.1 kgf/cm

2

, 3 bar, 43.5 psi) is

dangerous. When the inflation
pressure rises above 300 kPa (3.1
kgf/cm

2

, 3 bar, 43.5 psi), heated air

will be exhausted from the back of
the compressor and you could be
burned.

CAUTION

If the compressor operates slowly or
becomes hot, it indicates
overheating. Turn the compressor off
immediately and leave it turned off
for 30 minutes or longer.

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.
