WARNING
Place the specialized temporary spare
tire in the spare tire carrier correctly:
Placing the specialized temporary
spare tire in the spare tire carrier
wrong side up or using any tire other

attachment and insufficient ground
clearance in the spare tire carrier and
the danger of the tire falling off. This
could result in someone being badly
injured or even killed.
Always tighten the spare tire carrier
bolt completely tight and make sure
the spare tire is locked in the highest
position:
A loose spare tire carrier bolt is
dangerous. The cable could be cut
causing the spare tire to fall off. This
could result in someone being
seriously injured or even killed. Use a
lug wrench to tighten the carrier bolt
and make sure to tighten it until a
click sound is heard.
CAUTION

If you are unsure of how tight the nuts
should be, have them inspected at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.

(11.0―14.9, 79.6―108.4)
WARNING
Always securely and correctly tighten
the lug nuts:
Improperly or loosely tightened lug
nuts are dangerous. The wheel could
wobble or come off. This could result
in loss of vehicle control and cause a
serious accident.
Be sure to reinstall the same nuts you
removed or replace them with metric
nuts of the same configuration:
Because the wheel studs and lug nuts
on your Mazda have metric threads,
using a non-metric nut is dangerous.
On a metric stud, it would not secure
the wheel and would damage the
stud, which could cause the wheel to
slip off and cause an accident.
5. Open the cargo sub-compartment.
Refer to Cargo Sub-Compartment on
page 6-149.
6. Remove the cover.
7. Remove the belt for securing the flat
tire.

Driving on tires with incorrect air
pressure is dangerous. Tires with
incorrect pressure could affect
handling and result in an accident.
When you check the regular tires' air
pressure, check the spare tire, too.
NOTE
(With Tire Pressure Monitoring System)
A tire pressure sensor is not installed to the
temporary spare tire. The warning light will
flash continuously while the temporary spare
tire is being used (page 5-29).
