Tyre Rotation - Mazda CX-3 Owner's Manual

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.
During rotation, inspect them for correct
balance.
NOTE
(Without temporary spare tyre)
Because your vehicle is not equipped
with a spare tyre, you cannot do a tyre
rotation safely with the jack that comes
with your vehicle. Have an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer perform tyre rotation.
Forward
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE ONLY)
spare tyre in rotation.
Owner Maintenance
Also, inspect them for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused
by one or a combination of the following:
Incorrect tyre pressure
      
Improper wheel alignment
      
Out-of-balance wheel
      
Severe braking
      
After rotation, infl ate all tyre pressures to
specifi cation (page 9-9 ) and inspect the
wheel nuts for tightness.
(With tyre pressure monitoring system)
After adjusting the tyre pressure,
initialization of the tyre pressure
monitoring system is necessary to make
the system operate normally.
Refer to Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization on page 4-201 .
CAUTION
Rotate unidirectional tyres and radial
tyres that have an asymmetrical tread
pattern or studs only from front to rear,
not from side to side. Tyre performance
will be reduced if rotated from side to
side.
