CAUTION
If the bottle is shaken after the
injection hose is screwed on, tyre
sealant could spray out from the
injection hose. Tyre sealant
contacting clothing or other objects
may be impossible to remove.
Shake the bottle before screwing on
the injection hose.
NOTE
The tyre sealant can be used at
outside temperatures down to >+
30°C (>+22°F).
In extremely cold temperatures
(0°C (32°F) or below), the tyre
sealant hardens easily and injection
of the sealant will be difficult.
Warm the sealant inside the vehicle
before doing the injection work.
6. Remove the cap from the bottle.
Screw on the injection hose with
the bottle's inner cap left on to
break the inner cap.

WARNING
Use only the front and rear jacking
positions recommended in this
manual:
Attempting to jack the vehicle in
positions other than those
recommended in this manual is
dangerous. The vehicle could slip
off the jack and seriously injure or
even kill someone. Use only the
front and rear jacking positions
recommended in this manual.
Do not jack up the vehicle in a
position other than the designated
jack-up position or place any
objects on or under the jack:
Jacking up the vehicle in a position
other than the designated jack-up
position or placing objects on or
under the jack is dangerous as it
could deform the vehicle body or
the vehicle could fall off the jack
resulting in an accident.
Use only the jack provided with
your Mazda:
Using a jack that is not designed for
your Mazda is dangerous. The
vehicle could slip off the jack and
seriously injure someone.
Never place objects under the
jack:
Jacking the vehicle with an object
under the jack is dangerous. The
jack could slip and someone could
be seriously injured by the jack or
the falling vehicle.
NOTE
When raising the jack head into the
jacking position and aligning the
groove in the jack head with the rail
under the vehicle body, the top of
the jack head contacts the vehicle's
underbody without the rail
contacting the bottom of the
groove.
7. Insert the jack lever and attach the
wheel brace to tyre jack.
8. Turn the jack handle clockwise and
raise the vehicle high enough so

WARNING
Do not jack up the vehicle higher
than is necessary:
Jacking up the vehicle higher than is
necessary is dangerous as it could
destabilize the vehicle resulting in
an accident.
Do not start the engine or shake
the vehicle while it is jacked up:
Starting the engine or shaking the
vehicle while it is jacked up is
dangerous as it could cause the
vehicle to fall off the jack resulting
in an accident.
Never go under the vehicle while it
is jacked up:
Going under the vehicle while it is
jacked up is dangerous as it could
result in death or serious injury if
the vehicle were to fall off the jack.
9. Remove the wheel nuts by turning
them anticlockwise; then remove
the wheel and centre cap.
▼Mounting the Spare Tyre
1. Remove dirt and grime from the
mounting surfaces of the wheel and
hub, including the hub bolts, with a
cloth.
WARNING
Make sure the mounting surfaces
of the wheel, hub and wheel nuts
are clean before changing or
replacing tyres:
When changing or replacing a tyre,
not removing dirt and grime from
the mounting surfaces of the wheel,
hub and hub bolts is dangerous.
The wheel nuts could loosen while
driving and cause the tyre to come
off, resulting in an accident.
2. Mount the spare tyre.
3. Install the wheel nuts with the
bevelled edge 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 jack handle anticlockwise
using the wheel brace and lower
the vehicle.
