2020 MAZDA MODEL 3-SEDAN tire pressure

Tire Maintenance
▼Tire Maintenance
Improper or inad
equate vehicle
maintenance can cause tires to wear
abnormally. Here are some important
maintenance points:
▼ Tire Inflation Pressure
Inspect all tire p
ressure monthly
(including the spare) when the tires are
cold. Maintain recommended pressures for
the best ride, top handling, and minimum
tire wear. Use the pressures specified on
the vehicle tire inform ation placard or tire
label for optimum service.
▼ Tire Rotation
To equalize tread wear, rotate the tires
every 16,000 km (10,000 miles) at the
latest or sooner if irregular wear develops.
Mazda recommends to rotate every 8,000
km (5,000 miles) to help increase tire life
and distribute wear more evenly.
1. Forward
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE
ONLY) spare tire in rotation.

Inspect the tires for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused
by one or a combination of the following:
Incorrect tire pressure
Improper wheel alignment
Out-of-balance wheel
Severe braking
After rotation, inflate all tire pressures to
specification (page 9-9) and inspect the
lug nuts for tightness.
CAUTION
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial tires
that have an asymmetrical tread pattern or
studs only from front to rear, not from side
to side. Tire performance will be weakened
if rotated from side to side.
▼ Replacing a Tire
WA R N I N G
Always use tires that are in good condition:
Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking, steering, and traction
could result in an accident.
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator will
appear as a solid band across the tread.
Replace the tire when this happens.
1. New tread
2. Worn tread
3. Tread wear indicator

You should replace the tire before the band
crosses the entire tread.

Vehicle Loading
▼Vehicle Loading
WA R N I N G
Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle:
Towing a trailer wi
th this vehicle is
dangerous because it has not been
designed to tow a trailer and doing so will
affect the drive system which could result in
vehicle damage.
This section will guide you in the proper
loading of your vehicle, to keep your
loaded vehicle weight within its design
rating capability. Properly loading your
vehicle will provide maximum return of
vehicle design performance. Before
loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself
with the following terms for determining
your vehicle's weight ratings, from the
vehicle's Safety Certification Label and
Tire and Load Information Label:
WA R N I N G
Overloaded Vehicle:
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous. The
results of overloading can have serious
consequences in terms of passenger safety.
Too much weight on a vehicle's suspension
system can cause spring or shock absorber
failure, brake failure, handling or steering
problems, irregular tire wear, tire failure or
other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to
drive and control. It also increases the
distance required for stopping. In cases of
serious overloading, brakes can fail
completely, particularly on steep grades.
The load a tire will carry safely is a
combination of the size of the tire, its load
range, and corresponding inflation
pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always
observe the vehicle's weight ratings from
the vehicle's Safety Certification and Tire
and Load Information labels.
Base Curb Weight is the weight of the
vehicle including a f ull tank of fuel and
all standard equip ment. It does not
include passengers, cargo, or optional
equipment.

Vehicle Curb Weight is the weight of
your new vehicle when you picked it up
from your dealer plus any aftermarket
equipment.
