WARNING
Metric Studs and Lug Nuts:
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. Be sure to
reinstall the same nuts you removed or
replace them with metric nuts of the
same configuration.
Incorrect Tire Air Pressure:
Driving on tires with incorrect air
pressure is dangerous. Tires with
incorrect pressure could affect
handling and result in an accident.
Don't drive with any tires that have
incorrect air pressure. When you
check the regular tires' air pressure,
check the spare tire, too.
5. Put the flat tire in the special vinyl bag
and tie it at the top.
6. With the tire facing outward, punch a
hole through the vinyl bag and the
center hole, using the flat tire securing
bolt.
7. Lift the anchor clip on the back of
third-row seat.
8. Install the flat tire with the tire securing
bolt hooked in the anchor clip as
shown below.
