2001 MAZDA MODEL TRIBUTE 4WD lock

Driving on snow and ice
NOTE:
²An 4x4 vehicle has advantages over 2WD vehicles in snow and ice but
can skid like any other vehicle.
² Avoid sudden applications of power and quick changes of direction on
snow and ice. Apply the accelerator slowly and steadily when starting
from a full stop.
² When braking, apply the brakes as you normally would. In order to
allow the anti-lock brake system (ABS) to operate properly, keep
steady pressure on the brake pedal.
² Allow more stopping distance and drive slower than usual. Consider
using one of the lower gears.

have blown. Blown fuses are
identified by a broken wire within
the fuse. Check the appropriate
fuses before replacing any electrical
components.
NOTE: Always replace a fuse with one that has the specified amperage
rating. Using a fuse with a higher amperage rating can cause severe wire
damage and could start a fire.

It is not recommended that the vehicle be operated in 4WD modes with
a temporary spare. If 4WD operation is necessary, do not operate above
speeds of 16 km/h (10 mph) or for distances above 80 km (50 miles).WARNING: If you use the temporary spare tire continuously or
do not follow these precautions, the tire could fail, causing you
to lose control of the vehicle, possibly injuring yourself or
others.
When driving with the temporary spare tire do not:
² exceed 80 km/h (50 mph) under any circumstances
² load the vehicle beyond maximum vehicle load rating listed on the
Safety Compliance Label
² tow a trailer
² use tire chains
² drive through an automatic car wash, because of the vehicle's reduced
ground clearance
² try to repair the temporary spare tire or remove it from its wheel rim
² use the wheel for any other type of vehicle
Tire change procedure WARNING: When one of the front wheels is off the ground, the
transmission alone will not prevent the vehicle from moving or
slipping off the jack, even if the vehicle is in P (Park)
(automatic transaxle) or R (Reverse) (manual transaxle).
WARNING: To prevent the vehicle from moving when you
change a tire, be sure the parking brake is set, then block (in
both directions) the wheel that is diagonally opposite (other
side and end of the vehicle) to the tire being changed.
WARNING: If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or someone
else could be seriously injured.
