Inspection and Servicing/Cleaning
Vehicle Exterior Inspection
Use only a Mazda-genuine tire valve
cap.
Use of a non-genuine part is
dangerous as the correct tire air
pressure cannot be maintained if the
tire valve becomes damaged. If the
vehicle is driven under this condition,
the tire air pressure will decrease
which could result in a serious
accident. Do not use any part for the
tire valve cap that is not a
Mazda-genuine part.
Inspect all tire pressures monthly when
the tires are cold. Maintain
recommended pressures for the best
ride, handling, and minimum tire
wear.
Refer to the specification charts (page
10-65).
NOTE
Cold inflation pressure

The cold inflation pressure is the
pressure measured under ambient
temperatures before the vehicle is
driven.
Maximum inflation pressure

The maximum inflation pressure is
the upper limit of the cold inflation
pressure designated by the tire
manufacturer.
Recommended inflation pressure

The recommended inflation pressure
is the cold inflation pressure
necessary for maintaining the
performance of your Mazda.
Underinflation or overinflation can

cause a harsh ride, reduced fuel
economy, a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards, uneven
and accelerated tire wear, and poor
sealing of the tire bead, which will
deform the wheel and cause
separation of tire from rim.

Keep your tire pressure at the correct

levels. If one frequently needs
inflating, have it inspected.
