Make sure the fuel-filler cap is 
tightened securely. The check engine 
light comes on when the cap isn’t 
tightened securely. If the light remains 
on (even after you have tightened the 
cap securely, driven, and restarted the 
engine several times), it may indicate a 
different problem. Contact an 
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as 
possible.
