CAUTION
Do not drive the vehicle with the roof pa rtially open. The vehicle operation may be
affected
by the wind and could result in an accident.
 Do not perform the procedure in a strong wind as it could cause an unexpected accident.
 Two adults are required to perform the procedu re, especially when lifting up the front roof.
Do not do it alone so as not to cause injury or vehicle damage.
 Some steps in the procedure require using mult iple tools at the same time and a certain
level of technical expertise. In addition, hold ing your body extended over the car can result
in muscle strains so Mazda recommends having the roof checked at an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
NOTE
This procedure is for manually closing the roof as an emergency measure. After closing
the roof manually, electric operation is not pos sible until the system is restored by an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Using a flashlight will facilitate the procedure.

width in millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. In general, the larger
the number, the wider the tire.
65
“65” is the aspect ratio. This two-digit number indicates the t ire's ratio of height to width.
R
“R” is the tire construction symbol. R indicates “Radial ply co nstruction”.
15
“15” is the wheel rim diameter in inches.
95
“95” is the Load Index. This two-or three-digit number indicate s how much weight each tire
