WARNING
Always securely and correctly tighten
the lug nuts:
Improperly or loosely tightened lug
nuts are dangerous. The wheel could
wobble or come off. 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 off and cause an accident.
5. Replace the cargo sub-compartment.
6. Remove the lid by pressing the two
latches on the cargo sub-compartment.
7. Remove the belt for securing the flat
tire.
8. Return the third-row seatback to its
original position.
Refer to Folding the Third-Row Seat
on page 2-10.
9. Place the flat tire in the cargo sub-
compartment.
10. Thread the belt through the wheel as
shown in the figure, then attach the
belt clips to the cargo securing loops
on the back of the third-row seat.
