Mazda 2007 CX-7 - Manual (Page 279)

Black plate (279,1)
CAUTION
l When using the temporary spare tire,
driving stability may decrease
compared to when using only the
conventional tire.
Drive carefully.
l To avoid damage to the temporary
spare or to the vehicle, observe the
following precautions:
l Don't exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
l 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).
l Don't use a tire chain on this tire
because it won't fit properly.
l Don't use your temporary spare
on any other vehicle; it has been
designed only for your Mazda.
l Use only one temporary spare tire
on your vehicle at the same time.
(With limited slip differential)
When using the temporary spare tire on
the front axle, replace it with a standard
tire as soon as possible. The size
difference between the spare and the
standard tire will cause the limited slip
differential to malfunction.
NOTE
(With Tire Pressure Monitoring
System)
A tire pressure sensor is not installed to
the temporary spare tire. The warning
light will flash continuously while the
temporary spare tire is being used (page
5-27).
To remove the spare tire
1. Remove the trunk board and spare tire
cover.
