If it's low, remove the cap and add enough distilled water to bring the level between the upper and lower level (illustration). Don't overfill. Examine the specific gravity of the electrolyte with a hydrometer, especially during cold weather. If it's low, recharge the battery. Tires For reasons of proper performance, safety, and better fuel economy, always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and stay within the recommended load limits and weight distribution. WARNING Using Different Tire Types: Driving your vehicle with different types of tires is dangerous. It could cause poor handling and poor braking; leading to loss of control. Except for the limited use of the temporary spare tire, use only the same type tires (radial, bias-belted, bias-type) on all four wheels. Using Wrong-Sized Tires: Using any other tire size than what is specified for your Mazda (page 10-6) is dangerous. It could seriously affect ride, handling, ground clearance, tire clearance, and speedometer calibration. This could cause you to have an accident. Use only tires that are the correct size specified for your Mazda. 8-26 Form No.8T50-EA-04G
