dust-proof sheet could be damaged
and the surface coating could be
scratched. Use a fine, soft cloth such as
those used for cleaning eyeglasses.
NOTE
Use of compressed air when cleaning
the dust-proof sheet is recommended.
▼Panel Maintenance
If a panel becomes soiled, wipe it off
with a soft cloth soaked in clean water
and thoroughly wrung out.
If some areas require further cleaning,
use the following procedure:
1. Wipe the soiled area with a soft
cloth soaked in a mild detergent
(approx. 5 %) diluted with water.
2. Wipe off the remaining detergent using a cloth soaked in clean water
and wrung out well.
NOTE
Be particularly careful when cleaning
shiny surface panels and metallic parts
such as plating as they can be
scratched easily.
▼Cleaning the Window Interiors
If the windows become covered with
an oily, greasy, or waxy
film, clean
them with glass cleaner. Follow the
directions on the container.
CAUTION
Do not scrape or scratch the inside
of the window glass. It could
damage the thermal filaments and
the antenna lines.
When washing the inside of the
window glass, use a soft cloth
dampened in lukewarm water, gently
wiping the thermal filaments and the
antenna lines.
Use of glass cleaning products could
damage the thermal filaments and
the antenna lines.
▼ Cleaning the Floor Mats
Rubber floor mats should be cleaned
with mild soap and water only.
WARNING
Do not use rubber cleaners, such as
tire cleaner or tire shine, when
cleaning rubber floor mats:
Cleaning the rubber floor mats with
rubber cleaning products makes the
floor mats slippery.
This may cause an accident when
depressing the accelerator, brake, or
clutch (Manual transmission) pedal or
when getting in or out of the vehicle.
After removing the floor mats for
cleaning, always reinstall them securely
(page 3-49).

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.

WARNING
Make sure the mounting surfaces
of the wheel, hub and lug nuts are
clean before changing or replacing
tires:
When changing or replacing a tire,
not removing dirt and grime from
the mounting surfaces of the wheel,
hub and hub bolts is dangerous.
The lug nuts could loosen while
driving and cause the tire to come
off, resulting in an accident.
2. Mount the spare tire.
3. Install the lug nuts with the beveled edge inward; tighten them by hand.
WARNING
Do not apply oil or grease to lug

the lug nuts beyond the
recommended tightening torque:
Applying oil or grease to lug nuts
and bolts is dangerous. The lug nuts
could loosen while driving and
cause the tire to come off, resulting
in an accident. In addition, lug nuts
and bolts could be damaged if
tightened more than necessary.
4. Turn the jack handle counterclockwise using the lug
wrench and lower the vehicle.
5. Use the lug wrench to tighten the nuts in the order shown.

Be sure to reinstall the same nuts
you removed or replace them with
metric nuts of the same
configuration:
Because the wheel studs and lug
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.
