2017 MAZDA MODEL CX-5 Owner's Manual - RHD (UK, Australia) (in English)

WARNING
Never operate the compressor above
300 kPa (3.1 kgf/ c m
2, 3 bar, 43.5 psi):
Operating the compressor above 300
kPa (3.1 kgf/cm
2, 3 bar, 43.5 psi) is
dangerous. When the inflation pressure
rises above 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm
2, 3 bar,
43.5 psi), heated air will be exhausted
from the back of the compressor and
you could be burned.
NOTE
•Check the tyre inflation pressure
label (driver's door frame) for the
correct tyre inflation pressure.
•Do not use the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes because
using the compressor for long
periods could damage it.
•If the tyre does not inflate, repair of
the tyre may not be possible. If the
tyre does not reach the correct
inflation pressure within a 10-minute
period, it probably has received
more extensive damage. When this
happens, the emergency flat tyre
repair kit cannot be used to repair
the tyre. Contact an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
•If the tyre has been over-inflated,
loosen the screw cap on the
compressor and bleed some of the
air out.
16. When the tyre has been inflated to the proper inflation pressure, turn the
compressor switch off and remove the
compressor hose from the tyre valve.
17. Install the tyre valve cap.
18. Put the emergency flat tyre repair kit in the boot and continue driving.
CAUTION
Drive carefully to an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer and keep the vehicle
speed below 80 km/h (50 mph).
 If the vehicle is driven 80 km/h (50
mph) or higher, the vehicle might
begin to vibrate.
NOTE
(With Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System)
If the tyre is not properly inflated, the
tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light will illuminate (page
4-42).
19. After driving the vehicle for 10 minutes or 5 km (3 miles), check the
tyre pressure with the tyre pressure
gauge equipped with the compressor. If
the tyre pressure ha s fallen below the
correct tyre pressure, inflate the tyre to
the correct pressure again following
the steps from number 14.
CAUTION
 If the tyre inflation pressure falls
below 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar,
18.9 psi), repair cannot be done with
the repair kit. Park the vehicle on a
level surface off the right-of-way and
contact an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.

If the tyre
inflation pressure continues
to remain low after repeating steps
13 to 20, park the vehicle on a level
surface off the right-of-way and
contact an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
NOTE
When checking the tyre inflation
pressure with the tyre pressure gauge
on the compressor unit, make sure the
compressor switch is turned off.
20. The emergency flat tyre repair is
completed if the tyre air pressure does
not decrease. Drive the vehicle
carefully to the nearest expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer promptly and have the tyre
replaced. Mazda recommends that the
tyre be replaced with a new one. If the
tyre is to be repaired and reused,
consult an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
Peel off the speed restriction sticker
after replacing the tyre.
CAUTION
For a tyre which has undergone an
emergency flat tyre repair using the
emergency
flat tyre repair kit, Mazda
recommends that the tyre be
replaced with a new one as soon as
possible. If the tyre is to be repaired
and reused, consult an expert
repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
 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 flat 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 flat tyre.
•Steering becomes difficult.
•The vehicle begins to vibrate
excessively.
•The vehicle pulls in one direction.
If you have a flat tyre, drive slowly to a
level spot that is well off the road and out
of the way of traffic to change the tyre.
Stopping in traffic or on the shoulder of a
busy road is dangerous.
WA R N I N G
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.
NOTE
Make sure the jack is well lubricated
before using it.
1. Park on a hard, level surface off the right-of-way and firml y set the parking
brake.
2. Put a vehicle with an automatic transaxle in Park (P), a manual
transaxle in Reverse (R) or 1, and turn
off the engine.
3. Turn on the hazard warning flasher.
4. Have everyone get out of the vehicle
and away from the vehicle and traffic.
5. Remove the jack, tool, and spare tyre
(page 7-15).
6. Block the wheel diagonally opposite the flat tyre. When blocking a wheel,
place a tyre block both in front and
behind the tyre.
NOTE
When blocking a tyre, use rocks or
wood blocks of sufficient size if
possible to hold the tyre in place.

▼Removing a Flat Tyre
WA R N I N G
When jacking-up a vehicle, always shift the
shift lever to 1st or R (manual transaxle
vehicle) or shift the selector lever to P
(automatic transaxle vehicle), apply the
parking brake, and place wheel blocks in
the position diagonally opposed to the
jack:
Changing a
flat tyre without using wheel
blocks is dangerous because the vehicle
may move and fall off the jack even with
the shift lever in 1st or R, or the select lever
is in P, which could result in an accident.
1. If your vehicle is equipped with steel wheels, pry off the c entre cap with the
bevelled end of the jack lever.

3. Install the wheel nuts with the bevellededge inward; tighten them by hand.

WARNING
Do not apply oil or grease to wheel nuts
and bolts and do not tighten the wheel
nuts beyond the recommended
tightening torque:
Applying oil or grease to wheel nuts
and bolts is dangerous. The wheel nuts
could loosen while driving and cause
the tyre to come off, resulting in an
accident. In addition, wheel nuts and
bolts could be damaged if tightened
more than necessary.
4. Turn the wheel brace anticlockwise and lower the vehicle.
5. Use the wheel brace to tighten the nuts in the order shown.

If you are unsure of how tight the nuts

Authorised Mazda Repairer.
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 configuration:
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 inflation pressure. Refer to Tyres on page 9-9.
