edge inward; tighten them by hand.

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 off, resulting in an accident.
In addition, lug nuts and bolts could
be damaged if tightened more than
necessary.

4. Turn the lug wrench counterclockwise

and lower the vehicle. Use the lug
wrench to tighten the nuts in the order
shown.

If you're unsure of how tight the nuts
should be, have them inspected at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
