Tyre Inflation Pressure
WARNING
Always inflate the tyres to the correct
pressure:
Overinflation or underinflation of
tyres is dangerous. Adverse handling
or unexpected tyre failure could result
in a serious accident.
Refer to Tyres on page 10-6.
Use only a Mazda-genuine tyre valve
cap:
Use of a non-genuine part is
dangerous as the correct tyre air
pressure cannot be maintained if the
tyre valve becomes damaged. If the
vehicle is driven under this condition,
the tyre air pressure will decrease
which could result in a serious
accident. Do not use any part for the
tyre valve cap that is not a Mazda-
genuine part.
Inspect all tyre pressures monthly
(including the spare) when the tyres are
cold. Maintain recommended pressures
for the best ride, handling, and minimum
tyre wear.
Refer to the specification charts (page
10-6).
NOTE
l
Always check tyre pressure when
tyres are cold.
l
Warm tyres normally exceed
recommended pressures. Do not
release air from warm tyres to adjust
the pressure.
l
Underinflation can cause reduced
fuel economy, uneven and
accelerated tyre wear, and poor
sealing of the tyre bead, which will
deform the wheel and cause
separation of tyre from rim.
l
Overinflation can produce a harsh
ride, uneven and accelerated tyre
wear, and a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards.
Keep your tyre pressure at the
correct levels. If one frequently
needs inflating, have it inspected.
q
Tyre Rotation
WARNING
Rotate tyres periodically:
Irregular tyre wear is dangerous. To
equalize tread wear for maintaining
good performance in handling and
braking, rotate the tyres every
10,000 km (6,250 miles), or sooner if
irregular wear develops.
