Antitheft System*
To deter theft of your vehicle
’s audio unit,
it has an integrated antitheft system. The
system is designed to accept a code
number that makes the unit inoperable if it
is stolen.
This system will be activated if the power
source is ever disconnected from or in any
way interrupted to the audio unit. When
the system is activated, the audio system
will not operate when reconnected to a
power supply, and "CODE" will flash on
the display until the correct code number
is input. If the antitheft system is
activated, reset the unit.

Read and understand all code setting
procedures before attempting to input
your personal code number.
The personal code number is only
shown on the audio unit display while
it is being set. Once it is input and
stored by the unit, it is never again
displayed. For that reason, be very
careful to immediately record your
personal code number, and never let an
unauthorized person set a code.
NOTE
Although the audio unit is operable
without the code number being set, we
recommend that you set your personal
code number.
CAUTION
*Some models.

Form No. 8S15-EA-03G

Jack
To remove the jack
Turn the wing bolt counterclockwise.
To secure the jack
Perform the removal procedure in reverse.

Spare Tire
Your Mazda has a temporary spare tire.
The temporary spare tire is lighter and
smaller than a conventional tire, and is
designed only for emergency use and
should be used only for VERY short
periods. Temporary spares should
NEVER be used for long drives or
extended periods.
Driving with a Temporary Spare Tire
on Ice or Snow:
Driving with a spare tire on the rear
(driving) wheels on ice or snow is
dangerous. Handling will be affected.
You could lose control of the vehicle
and have an accident. Put the spare
tire on the front axle and move a
regular tire to the rear.

WARNING
To avoid damage to the temporary
spare or to the vehicle, observe the
following precautions:
•
Don
’t exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
• Avoid driving over obstacles.
Also, don
’t drive through an
automatic car wash. This tire ’s
diameter is smaller than a
conventional tire ’s, so the ground
clearance is reduced about 25 mm
(1 in).
• Don
’t use a tire chain on this tire
because it won ’t fit properly.
• Don
’t use your temporary spare on
any other vehicle; it has been
designed only for your Mazda.
• Use only one temporary spare tire
on your vehicle at the same time.
(With limited slip differential)
When using the temporary spare tire
on the rear axle, replace it with a
standard tire as soon as possible. The
size difference between the spare and
the standard tire will cause the limited
slip differential to malfunction.
