qLocking Lug Nuts

If your vehicle has optional antitheft

wheel lug nuts, one on each wheel will

lock the tires and you must use a special

key to unlock them. This key is attached

to the lug wrench. Register them with the

lock manufacturer by filling out the card

provided in the glove box and mailing it

in the accompanying envelope. If you lose

this key, consult an Authorized Mazda

Dealer or use the lock manufacturer's

order form, which is with the registration

card.
