Using the Emergency Flat Tyre Repair Kit
CAUTION
If the bottle is shaken after the injection hose is screwed on, tyre sealant could spray out from the injection hose. Tyre sealant contacting clothing or other objects may be impossible to remove.
Shake the bottle before screwing on the injection hose.
NOTE
The tyre sealant can be used at outside temperatures down to -30 °C (-22 °F). In extremely cold temperatures (0 °C (32 °F) or below), the tyre sealant hardens easily and injection of the sealant will be diffi cult. Warm the sealant inside the vehicle before doing the injection work.
CAUTION
If there is air remaining in the tyre when the valve core is removed, the valve core could fl y out. Remove the valve core carefully.
NOTE
Store the valve core in a place where it will not get dirty.
NOTE
The tyre sealant cannot be reused.
Purchase a new tyre sealant kit at an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
NOTE
Do not throw away the empty tyre sealant bottle after use. Return the empty tyre sealant bottle to an Authorised Mazda Repairer when replacing the tyre.
The empty tyre sealant bottle will need to be used to extract and dispose of the used sealant from the tyre.
WARNING
Do not attach the vehicle speed restriction sticker to the instrument panel, as it would obstruct vision of areas such as warning light indicators or the speedometer: Attaching the vehicle speed restriction sticker to the steering wheel pad is dangerous. The sticker could interfere with air bag infl ation and cause serious injury.
CAUTION
WARNING
Never operate the compressor above 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm 2 , 3 bar, 43.5 psi): Operating the compressor above 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm 2 , 3 bar, 43.5 psi) is dangerous. When the infl ation pressure rises above 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm 2 , 3 bar, 43.5 psi), heated air will be exhausted from the back of the compressor and you could be burned.
CAUTION
If the compressor operates slowly or becomes hot, it indicates overheating.
Turn the compressor off immediately and leave it turned off for 30 minutes or longer.
NOTE
When this happens, the emergency fl at tyre repair kit cannot be used to repair the tyre. Contact an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
CAUTION
NOTE
(With tyre pressure monitoring system) If the tyre is not properly infl ated, the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light will illuminate.
CAUTION
NOTE
When checking the tyre infl ation pressure with the tyre pressure gauge on the compressor unit, make sure the compressor switch is turned off.
Drive the vehicle with care to an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer to have the tyre replaced.
CAUTION
Inspecting the Emergency Flat Tyre Repair Kit
