In Case of an Emergency

Parking in an Emergency

The hazard warning lights should always
be used when you stop on or near a
roadway.

The hazard warning lights warn other
drivers that your vehicle is a traffic hazard
and that they must take extreme caution
when near it.

Depress the hazard warning switch and all
four turn signals will flash at once.

Parking in an Emergency

NOTE

• The turn signals don’t work when

the hazard warning lights are on.

• Check local regulations about the

use of hazard warning lights while
the vehicle is being towed. They
may forbid it.

▼ Jack

To remove the jack

Turn the wing bolt counterclockwise.

To secure the jack

Perform the removal procedure in reverse.

▼

▼ Spare Tire

Your Mazda has a temporary spare tire.
It’s lighter and smaller than a
conventional tire, and is designed only for
emergency use and should be used only
for VERY short periods. Temporary
spares should NEVER be used for long
drives or extended periods.

To remove the spare tire

Turn the tire hold-down bolt
counterclockwise with the lug wrench.

Driving with a Temporary Spare Tire
on Ice or Snow:
Driving with a spare tire on the front
(driving) wheels on ice or snow is
dangerous. Handling will be affected.
You could lose control of the vehicle
and have an accident. Put the spare
tire on the rear axle and move a
regular tire to the front.

Wing bolt

WARNING

To avoid damage to the temporary
spare or to the vehicle, observe the
following precautions:
• Don’t exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
• Avoid driving over obstacles.

Also, don’t drive through an
automatic car wash. This tire’s
diameter is smaller than a
conventional tire’s, so the ground
clearance is reduced about 25 mm
(1 in).

• Don’t use a tire chain on this tire

because it won’t fit properly.

• Don’t use your temporary spare on

any other vehicle; it has been
designed only for your Mazda.

• Use only one temporary spare tire

on your vehicle at the same time.

CAUTION

In Case of an Emergency

Flat Tire

If you have a flat tire, drive slowly to a
level spot that is well off the road and out
of the way of traffic to change the tire.
Stopping in traffic or on the shoulder of a
busy road is dangerous.

1. Park on a level surface off the right-of-

way and firmly set the parking brake.

2. Put a vehicle with an automatic

transaxle in park (P), a manual
transaxle in reverse (R), and turn off
the engine.

3. Turn on the hazard warning flasher.

4. Have everyone get out of the vehicle

and away from the vehicle and traffic.

5. Remove the jack, tool, and spare tire

(page 7-3).

6. Block the wheel diagonally opposite

the flat tire. When blocking a front
wheel, place the block in front of the
tire. When blocking a rear wheel, place
the block behind the tire.

Changing a Flat Tire

NOTE

If the following occurs while driving, it
could indicate a flat tire.

• Steering becomes difficult.
• The vehicle begins to vibrate

excessively.

• The vehicle pulls in one direction.

Jacking a Vehicle:
Changing a tire is dangerous if not
done properly. The vehicle can slip off
the jack and seriously injure
someone.
Be sure to follow the directions for
changing a tire, and never get under a
vehicle that is supported only by a
jack.

Passenger in Vehicle Supported by a
Jack:
Allowing someone to remain in a
vehicle supported by a jack is
dangerous. The occupant could cause
the vehicle to fall resulting in serious
injury. Never allow anyone inside a
vehicle supported by jack.

WARNING

NOTE

Make sure the jack is well lubricated
before using it.
