Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
The period of eff ective use for the
tire sealant has expired. (The
period of eff ectiveness is indicated
on the bottle label.)
The tear or puncture exceeds
about 4 mm (0.16 in).
The damage has occurred to an
area of the tire other than the
tread.
The vehicle has been driven with
nearly no air remaining in the tire.

▼ Using the Emergency Flat Tire
Repair Kit
1. Park on a level surface o
ff the
right-of-way and set the parking
brake.
2. Shift the selector lever to the P position and switch the power
switch to OFF.
3. Turn on the hazard warning flasher.
4. Unload passengers and luggage,
and remove the emergency flat tire
repair kit.

5. Shake the sealant bottle to mix the contents. Then extend the injection
hose.

1. Injection hose
CAUTION
Do not shake the bottle excessively.
Otherwise, the sealant could spray
out of the injection hose, and if the
sealant contacts clothing or other
objects, you may not be able to
remove it.
NOTE
The sealant hardens easily and
injecting it will be di fficult under
cold weather conditions (0 °C
(32 °F) or below). Warm the
sealant inside the vehicle to
facilitate injection.

3. Injection hose
CAUTION
Make sure that the air compressor
switch is off before inserting the air
compressor hose to the injection
valve of the bottle. If the air
compressor hose is not installed to
the injection valve of the bottle
securely, the sealant may leak.
8. Remove the valve cap from the valve of the flat tire, install the
injection hose to the tire valve, turn
the sleeve to the right, and tighten
it.

1. Compressor plug
2. Compressor
CAUTION
When inserting the air compressor
plug into or removing it from the
accessory socket, make sure that
the air compressor switch is off.
When turning the air compressor
on/o ff, use the air compressor
switch.
11.The sealant is injected into the tire when the air compressor is
switched on. After the sealant is
injected completely, wait until the
tire in flation pressure increases to
the specified tire in flation pressure.
NOTE
The infl ation pressure may increase
to about 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm2, 3
bar, 43.5 psi) temporarily to inject
the sealant through the valve.
Normally, the in flation pressure
decreases gradually and it reaches
the actual infl ation pressure after
about 30 seconds.
WARNING
Never use the air compressor
above 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm2, 3
bar, 43.5 psi):
Using the air compressor at an
in flation pressure above 300 kPa
(3.1 kgf/cm
2, 3 bar, 43.5 psi)
continuously is dangerous. If the air
compressor overheats, hot air will
be exhausted and you could get
burned.
NOTE
Check the tire in flation pressure
label rear door on the driver's
side for the correct tire in flation
pressure.
Do not operate the air
compressor for a continuous 10
minutes or longer because using
it for long periods could cause a
malfunction.
If the tire in flation pressure does
not increase, repair of the tire is
not possible. If the tire does not
reach the speci fied tire inflation
pressure within 10 minutes, it
may have received extensive
damage. In this case, the repair
using the emergency flat tire
repair kit was not successful.
Contact an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

12.Adhere the speed restriction stickerto an area where it can be viewed
easily by the driver.

13.Adhere the repaired tire sticker tothe wheel of the flat tire.

WARNING
Do not adhere the speed
restriction sticker to the padded
area on the steering wheel:
Adhering the speed restriction
sticker to the padded area on the
steering wheel is dangerous
because the air bag may not
operate (deploy) normally resulting
in serious injury. In addition, do not
adhere the sticker to areas where
warning lights or the speedometer
cannot be viewed.
14.When the tire in flates to the
specified tire in flation pressure, turn
the air compressor switch o ff, turn
the sleeve of the injection hose to
the left, and pull it out of the tire
valve.
15.Remove the air compressor hose from the injection valve of the
bottle. After that, install the
injection hose to the injection valve
of the bottle to prevent leakage of
any remaining sealant.

CAUTION
The remaining sealant in the hose
may spray out when the hose is
removed. Remove the hose
carefully because you may not be
able to remove the sealant
contacting clothing or other
objects.
16.Install the tire valve cap.
17.Put the emergency flat tire repair kit
into the trunk.
18.Start driving immediately to spread the sealant in the tire.

NOTE
If the tire is not properly inflated,
the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light will illuminate (page
4-180).
19.After driving the vehicle for about 10 minutes or 5 km (3 miles),
connect the air compressor to the
tire using Step 8 of the procedure,
and check the tire in flation pressure
using the tire pressure gauge on the
air compressor. If the tire in flation
pressure is lower than the speci fied
tire in flation pressure, turn the air
compressor on and wait until it
reaches the speci fied tire inflation
pressure.
WARNING
If the tire in flation pressure has
decreased below 130 kPa (1.3
kgf/cm
2 or bar, 18.9 psi), stop
driving and contact an Authorized
Mazda Dealer:
The repair using the emergency flat
tire repair kit was not successful.
If you see a decrease in the tire
infl ation pressure, even if Steps 8
to 19 of the procedure are
performed repeatedly, stop
driving:
Contact an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
CAUTION
Before checking the tire in flation
pressure using the tire pressure
gauge, turn the air compressor
switch o ff.
20.The emergency flat tire repair is
completed successfully if the tire
in flation pressure does not
decrease. Carefully drive the vehicle
to the nearest Authorized Mazda
Dealer immediately and have the
fl at tire replaced. Replacement with
a new tire is recommended. If the
tire is to be repaired or reused,
consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

been performed using the
emergency flat tire repair kit,
Mazda recommends that the tire
be replaced with a new one as
soon as possible. If the tire is to
be repaired or reused, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
The wheel can be reused if the
sealant adhering to it is removed.
However, replace the valve with a
new one.
▼ Inspecting the Emergency Flat Tire
Repair Kit
Inspect the emergency
flat tire repair
kit at regular intervals.
Check the tire sealant period of
e ff ective use.
Check the operation of the tire
compressor.
NOTE
The tire sealant has a period of
e
ff ective use. Check the period of
e ff ective use indicated on the bottle
label and do not use it if it has expired.
Have the tire sealant replaced at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer before the
period of eff ective use has expired.
