CAUTION

(With Tire Pressure Monitoring

System)

When replacing/repairing the tire s or

wheels or both, have the work done

by an Authorized Mazda Dealer, or

the tire pressure sensors may be

damaged.

NOTE

(With Tire Pressure Monitoring System)

l

When tires with steel wire reinforcement in

the sidewalls are used, the system may not

function correctly even with a genuine

wheel.

Refer to System Error Activation on page

5-34.

l

Be sure to install the tire pressure sensors

whenever tires or wheels are replaced.

Refer to Tires and Wheels on page 5-34.

If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator

will appear as a solid band across the

tread.

Replace the tire when this happens.

Worn tread

You should replace the tire before the

band crosses the entire tread.

NOTE

Tires degrade over time, even when they are

not being used on the road. It is recommended

that tires generally be replaced when they are

6 years or older. Heat caused by hot climates

or frequent high loading conditions can

accelerate the aging process. You should

replace the spare tire when you replace the

other road tires due to the aging of the spare

tire. The period in which the tire was

manufactured (both week and year) is

indicated by a 4-digit number.

Refer to The tire labeling on page 9-21.

qTemporary Spare Tire

Your Mazda is not equipped with a spare

tire. If you require a spare tire, consult an

Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Inspect the temporary spare tire at least

monthly to make sure it's properly inflated

and stored.

NOTE

The temporary spare tire condition gradually

deteriorates even if it has not been used.

The temporary spare tire is easier to

handle because of its construction which

is lighter and smaller than a conventional

tire. This tire should be used only for an

emergency and only for a short distance.

Use the temporary spare tire only until the

conventional tire is repaired, which should

be as soon as possible.

Maintain its pressure at 420 kPa (4.2

kgf/cm

2

or bar, 60 psi).
