NOTE
Do not throw away the empty tyre
sealant bottle after use. Return the empty
tyre sealant bottle to an Authorised

22. If the tyre inÀ ation pressure remains
stable, the tyre repair is complete.
Drive the vehicle with care to an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer to have the tyre
replaced.
CAUTION
  A tyre that has been temporarily
repaired with the tyre sealant cannot
be reused. Mazda recommends
replacing the tyre with a new one.
  The wheel can be reused after any
sealant adhering to it is wiped off and
carefully inspected. However, replace
the tyre valve with a new one.
Inspecting the Emergency Flat
Tyre Repair Kit
Inspect the emergency À at tyre repair kit at
regular intervals.
 


 Check the tyre sealant period of
effective use.
 


 Check the operation of the tyre
compressor.

NOTE
The tyre sealant has a period of effective
use. Check the period of effective use
indicated on the bottle label and do not
use it if it has expired. Have the tyre
sealant replaced at an Authorised Mazda
Repairer before the period of effective
use has expired.
Changing a Flat Tyre
(With Spare Tyre)
NOTE
If the following occurs while driving, it
could indicate a À at tyre.


 Steering becomes dif¿ cult. 
 The vehicle begins to vibrate
excessively.
  The vehicle pulls in one direction.
If you have a À at tyre, drive slowly to a
level spot that is well off the road and out
of the way of traf¿ c to change the tyre.
Stopping in traf¿ c or on the shoulder of a
busy road is dangerous.
WARNING
Be sure to follow the directions for
changing a tyre:
Changing a tyre is dangerous if not
done properly. The vehicle can slip off
the jack and seriously injure someone.
No person should place any portion
of their body under a vehicle that is
supported by a jack.

Never allow anyone inside a vehicle
supported by a jack:
Allowing someone to remain in
a vehicle supported by a jack is
dangerous. The occupant could cause
the vehicle to fall resulting in serious
injury.

If Trouble Arises
Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Signal Warning


Power Steering
Malfunction Indicator
Light The light illuminates/À ashes if the electric power steering has a malfunction.
If the light illuminates/À ashes, stop the vehicle in a safe place and do not operate the
steering wheel. There is no problem if the light turns off after a while. Contact an
expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer if the light illuminates/
À ashes continuously.
NOTE
If the indicator light illuminates/À ashes, the power steering will not operate
normally. In this happens, the steering wheel can still be operated, however, the
operation may feel heavy compared to normal, or the steering wheel could vibrate
when turning.

Repeatedly jerking the steering wheel left and right while the vehicle is stopped
or moving extremely slowly will cause the power steering system to go into
protective mode which will make the steering feel heavy, but this does not indicate
a problem. If this occurs, park the vehicle safely and wait several minutes for the
system to return to normal.

Contact Authorised Mazda Repairer and Have Vehicle Inspected
If any of the following warning lights turns on/À ashes, the system may have a malfunction.
Contact an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer to have your
vehicle inspected.

Signal Warning


ABS Warning Light If the ABS warning light stays on while you're driving, the ABS control unit has detected a
system malfunction. If this occurs, your brakes will function normally as if the vehicle had
no ABS.
Should this happen, consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer as soon as possible. NOTE
When the engine is jump-started to charge the battery, uneven rpm occurs and the ABS
warning light may illuminate. If this occurs, it is the result of the weak battery and
does not indicate an ABS malfunction.

(With DSC vehicles)
The brake assist system does not operate while the ABS warning light is illuminated.
