WARNING
Do not apply oil or grease to lug
nuts and bolts and do not tighten
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 o, 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.
If you are unsure of how tight the
nuts should be, have them
inspected at an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
Nut tightening torque
N·m (kgf·m, ft·lbf)
108―147 (12―14,
80―108)
WARNING
Always securely and correctly
tighten the lug nuts:
Improperly or loosely tightened lug
nuts are dangerous. The wheel
could wobble or come o. This
could result in loss of vehicle
control and cause a serious
accident.
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 o
and cause an accident.
6. Remove the center cap by tapping
it from the backside of the wheel
using the lug wrench.
7. Store the damaged and/or flat tire
in the rear cargo area.
8. Remove the tire blocks and store
the tools and jack.
9. Check the
inflation
pressure. Refer
to Tires on page 9-7.
10.Have the flat tire repaired or
replaced as soon as possible.
WARNING
Do not drive with any tires that have
incorrect air pressure:
Driving on tires with incorrect air
pressure is dangerous. Tires with
incorrect pressure could aect
handling and result in an accident.
When you check the regular tires' air
pressure, check the spare tire, too.
NOTE
To prevent the jack and tool from
rattling, store them properly.
