PUNCTURE REPAIR INFORMATION

Your MX-5 is designed to be as light as possible to maximise driving enjoyment,
so it doesn’t include a spare tyre. In the event of a puncture, use the supplied emergency flat tyre repair kit as a temporary fix.

  • The emergency flat tyre repair kit included with your MX-5 is for the temporary repair of small punctures caused by nails or similar sharp objects on the road surface

  • Perform the emergency repair without removing the sharp object from the tyre

  • When performing the repair, refer to the instructions included with the kit

  • Repair or replace the tyre as soon as possible. We recommend using an authorised Mazda Service Centre

  • Do not allow children to handle the tyre sealant

  • Tyre sealant cannot be reused. Purchase new tyre sealant at an authorised Mazda Service Centre*


THE EMERGENCY FLAT TYRE REPAIR KIT CANNOT BE USED IN THE FOLLOWING CASES:

  • The tyre sealant’s effective period has expired (this is indicated on the bottle label)

  • The tear or puncture exceeds 4mm (0.16in)

  • The tyre area damaged is not on the tread

  • The vehicle has been driven with nearly no air remaining in the tyre

  • The tyre has come off the wheel rim

  • Damage to the wheel rim has occurred

  • The tyre has two or more punctures
