WARNING

Loose 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. Always securely and
correctly tighten the lug nuts.

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.

5. If your vehicle is equipped with a

center cap, pry off the center cap with
the beveled end of the jack lever.

6. Put the flat tire in the special vinyl bag

and tie it at the top.

7. With the tire facing outward, punch a

hole through the vinyl bag and the
center hole, using the flat tire securing
bolt.

8. Lift the anchor clip on the back of

third-row seat.
