Nut tightening torque
N·m (kgf·m, ft·lbf) 108—147 (12—14, 80—108)
WARNING
Always securely and correctly tighten
the wheel nuts:
Improperly or loosely tightened wheel
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 con ¿ guration:
Because the wheel studs and wheel
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.
6. Remove the tyre blocks and store the
tools and jack.
7. Store the damaged tyre in the luggage
compartment.
8. Check the in À ation pressure. Refer to
Tyres on page 9-10 .

system)
Do not press the tyre pressure
monitoring system set switch after
installing the spare tyre. The switch
is only to be pressed after installing
the repaired À at tyre or installing a
replacement tyre (page 4-38 ).
