Maintenance and Care

Owner Maintenance

NOTE

y

Always check tire pressure when tires

are cold.

y

Warm tires normally exceed

recommended pressures. Do not release

air from warm tires to adjust the

pressure.

y

Underinﬂ ation can cause reduced fuel

economy, uneven and accelerated tire

wear, and poor sealing of the tire bead,

which will deform the wheel and cause

separation of tire from rim.

y

Overinﬂ ation can produce a harsh ride,

uneven and accelerated tire wear, and a

greater possibility of damage from road

hazards.



Keep your tire pressure at the correct

levels. If one frequently needs inﬂ ating,

have it inspected.

Tire Rotation

WARNING

Rotate tires periodically:

Irregular tire wear is dangerous. To

equalize tread wear for maintaining

good performance in handling and

braking, rotate the tires every 12,000

km (7,500 miles). However Mazda

recommends to rotate every 8,000 km

(5,000 miles) to help increase tire life

and distribute wear more evenly.

Refer to Scheduled Maintenance on

page 6-4 .

During rotation, inspect them for correct

balance.

D o not include (TE MP ORA RY USE ON LY )

spare tire in rotation.

Forward

Also, inspect them for uneven wear and

damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused

by one or a combination of the following:

y

Incorrect tire pressure

y

Improper wheel alignment

y

Out-of-balance wheel

y

Severe braking

After rotation, inﬂ ate all tire pressures to

speciﬁ cation (page 9-9 ) and inspect the lug

nuts for tightness.

After adjusting the tire pressure,

initialization of the tire pressure

monitoring system is necessary to make

the system operates normally.

Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Initialization on page 4-64 .

CAUTION

Rotate unidirectional tires and radial

tires that have an asymmetrical tread

pattern or studs only from front to rear,

not from side to side. Tire performance

will be reduced if rotated from side to

side.
