ADD-ON NON-GENUINE PARTS AND ACCESSORIES
Non-genuine parts and accessories for Mazda vehicles can be found in
stores. These may fit your vehicle, but they are not approved by the
manufacturer for use with Mazda vehicles. When you install non-genuine
parts or accessories, they could affect your vehicle's performance or safety
system; the manufacturer's warranty doesn't cover this. Before you install
any non-genuine parts or accessories, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
WARNING: Installation of Non-Genuine Parts or Accessories:
Installation of non-genuine parts or accessories could be
dangerous. Improperly designed parts or accessories could
seriously affect your vehicle's performance or safety system. This
could cause you to have an accident or increase your chances of
injuries in an accident. Always consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer before you install non-genuine parts or accessories.
WARNING: Add-On Electrical and Electronic Equipment:
Incorrectly choosing or installing improper add-on equipment or
choosing an improper installer could be dangerous. Essential
systems could be damaged, causing engine stalling, air-bag
(SRS) activation, ABS inactivation, or a fire in the vehicle. Be
very careful in choosing and installing add-on electrical
equipments, such as mobile telephones, two-way radios, stereo
systems, and car alarm systems.
Mazda assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may
result from the installation of add-on non-genuine parts or accessories.

OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA
Government regulations in the United States require that automobiles
meet specific emission regulations and safety standards. Therefore,
vehicles built for use in the United States, its territories, and Canada may
differ from those sold in other countries.
The differences may make it difficult or even impossible for your vehicle
to receive satisfactory servicing in other countries. We strongly
recommend that you NOT take your Mazda outside these areas.
You may have these problems if you do:
²Recommended fuel may be unavailable. Any kind of leaded fuel or
low-octane fuel will affect vehicle performance and damage the
emission controls and engine.
²Proper repair facilities, tools, testing equipment, and replacement
parts may not be available.
The manufacturer's warranty applies only to Mazda vehicles registered
and normally operated in the United States, its territories, and Canada.
REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or
could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying
Mazda Motor Corporation (Your Mazda Importer/Distributor).
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and
if it finds that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a
recall and remedy campaign. However NHTSA cannot become involved in
individual problems between you, your dealer, or Mazda Motor
Corporation (Your Mazda Importer/Distributor).
To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free
at 1 (800) 424±9393 (or 366±0123 in Washington, D.C. area) or write to:
NHTSA, U.S. Department of Transportation. Washington, D.C. 20590. You
can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from the
Hotline.

PAINT CHIPS
Your dealer has touch-up paint to match your vehicle's color. Touch-up
paint can be used to repair minor scratches to painted surfaces.
²Remove particles such as bird droppings, tree sap, insect deposits, tar
spots, road salt and industrial fallout before repairing paint chips.
²Always read the instructions before using the products.
ALUMINUM WHEELS AND COVERS
Aluminum wheel rims or covers are coated with a clearcoat paint finish.
In order to maintain their shine:
²Clean with One Step Wash and Wax Concentrate, which is available
from your local Mazda dealer.
²Never apply any cleaning chemical to hot or warm wheel rims or
covers.
²Some automatic car washes may cause damage to the finish on your
wheel rims or covers. Chemical-strength cleaners, or cleaning
chemicals, in combination with brush agitation to remove brake dust
and dirt, could wear away the clearcoat finish over time.
²Do not use hydrofluoric acid-based or high caustic-based wheel
cleaners, steel wool, fuels or strong household detergent.
²To remove tar and grease, use Extra Strength Tar and Road Oil
Removal, available from your local Mazda dealer.
ENGINE
Engines are more efficient when they are clean because grease and dirt
buildup keep the engine warmer than normal. When washing:
²Take care when using a power washer to clean the engine. The
high-pressure fluid could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage.
²Never spray the engine or other engine components with water. Water
will damage the engine or other engine components.
²Spray Engine Shampoo and Degreaser, available at your local Mazda
dealer, on all parts that require cleaning and pressure rinse clean.
²Cover the highlighted areas to prevent water damage when cleaning
the engine.

PLASTIC (NON-PAINTED) EXTERIOR PARTS
Use only approved products to clean plastic parts. These products are
available from your dealer.
²For routine cleaning, use One Step Wash and Wax Concentrate,
available at your local Mazda dealer.
²If tar or grease spots are present, use Extra Strength Tar and Road Oil
Removal, available at your local Mazda dealer.
CLEANING MIRRORS
Do not clean your mirrors with a dry cloth or abrasive materials. Use a
soft cloth and mild detergent and water. Be careful when removing ice
from outside mirrors because you may damage the reflective surface.
WINDOWS AND WIPER BLADES
The windshield, rear window and wiper blades should be cleaned regularly.
If the wiper does not wipe properly, substances on the windshield, rear
window or the wiper blades may be the cause. These may include hot wax
treatments used by commercial car washes, tree sap, or other organic
contamination. To clean these items, please follow these tips:
²The windshield or rear window may be cleaned with a non-abrasive
cleaner such as Ultra Clear Spray Glass Cleaner, available from your
local Mazda dealer.
²Do not use abrasives, as they may cause scratches.

WARNING: Do not use chemical solvents or strong detergents
when cleaning the seat where the side air bag is mounted. Such
products may contaminate the side air bag system and affect
performance of the side air bag in a collision. The air bag may
not function correctly and not provide any injury reduction
benefits.
LEATHER SEATS (IF EQUIPPED)
Your leather seating surfaces have a clear, protective coating over the
leather.
²To clean, use a soft cloth with Deluxe Leather and Vinyl Cleaner. Dry
the area with a soft cloth.
²To help maintain its resiliency and color, use the Deluxe Leather Care
Kit, available at your local Mazda dealer.
²Do not use household cleaning products, alcohol solutions, solvents or
cleaners intended for rubber, vinyl and plastics, or oil/petroleum-based
leather conditioners. These products may cause premature wearing of
the clear, protective coating.

holes unplugged. Inspect for road damage.
