Carry emergency gear, including tire

chains, window scraper, flares, a small

shovel, jumper cables, and a small bag

of sand or salt.

Ask an Authorized Mazda Dealer to

perform the following precautions:

l

Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in

the radiator.

l

Inspect the battery and its cables. Cold

reduces battery capacity.

l

Use only cold-weather engine oil (page

8-14).

l

Inspect the ignition system for damage

and loose connections.

l

Use was her fluid made with

antifreeze―but don't use engine

coolant antifreeze for washer fluid

(page 8-24).

Don't use the parking brake in freezing

weather as the parking brake may

freeze. Instead, shift to P with an

automatic transmission and to 1 or R

with a manual transmission. Block the

rear wheels.

WARNING

Mixing Tire Types:

Using tires different in size or type is

dangerous. Your vehicle's handling

could be greatly affected and result in

an accident. Use only the same size

and type tires (snow, radial, or non-

radial) on all four wheels.

CAUTION

Check local regulations before using

studded tires.

Use snow tires on all four wheels

Don't go faster than 120 km/h (75 mph)

while driving with snow tires. Inflate

snow tires 30 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm

2

, 4.3 psi)

more than recommended on the tire

pressure label (driver's door), but never

more than the maximum cold-tire pressure

shown on the tires.

Your vehicle is originally equipped with

summer tires designed for optimum

traction on wet and dry roads. If your

vehicle is to be used on snow and ice

covered roads, you may find it necessary

to replace the original equipment tires

with snow tires, during the winter months.
