▼Locking Lug Nuts
If your Mazda is equipped with the
optional antitheft whe
el lug nuts, a special
key must be used to unlock the locking lug
nut for each wheel. The key is stored in
the glove compartmen t, center console
storage, storage box, or trunk. Register the
key and lug nuts with the lock
manufacturer by filling out the registration
card and mailing it in using the
accompanying envelope. If the key is lost,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer or
use the lock manufacturer’s order form to
order a new key.
Antitheft wheel lug nuts cannot be
installed on a steel wheel spare tire. When

locking lug nut. The original lug nuts are
stored inside your Mazda.
