Replacing headlamp bulbs
NOTE:This procedure can be difficult. Your Mazda dealer has the
proper tools, training and parts to perform this task. If you have
difficulty with this procedure, visit your local Mazda dealer.
1. Make sure that the headlamp control is in the OFF position.
2. Open the hood.
WARNING: Handle a halogen bulb carefully and keep out of
children’s reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base and do
not touch the glass. The oil from your hands could cause the
bulb to break the next time the headlamps are operated. Always
wear safety glasses when handling halogen bulbs.
3. Disconnect the electrical
connector from the bulb by
pulling rearward.
4. Remove the rubber boot from
the lamp assembly by pulling on
one of the tabs.
5. Squeeze the retainer spring
together releasing it from bulb
hooks and rotate it away from
the bulb.
6. Without turning, carefully pull bulb out of headlamp assembly.
NOTE: If the bulb is accidentally touched, it should be cleaned with
rubbing alcohol before being used.
7. Insert the glass end of the new bulb into the headlamp assembly.
When the bulb’s three metal tabs are aligned with the grooves in the
plastic base, push the bulb into the lamp assembly until the bulb’s
metal base contacts the rear of the lamp assembly.
8. Rotate the retainer spring over the bulb plastic base and secure it on
the bulb hooks.
9. Install rubber boot on the lamp assembly.
10. Connect the electrical connector into the rear of the plastic base
until it“snaps.”

Towing trailers beyond the maximum recommended gross trailer weight
exceeds the limit of the vehicle and could result in:
•engine damage
•transmission damage
•structural damage
•loss of control
•personal injury
Preparing to tow
Use the proper equipment for towing a trailer and make sure it is
properly attached to your vehicle. See your authorized Mazda dealer.
Hitches
Do not use hitches that clamp onto the vehicle bumper. Use a load
carrying hitch. You must distribute the load in your trailer so that
10–15% of the total weight of the trailer is on the tongue.
Safety chains
Always connect the trailer’s safety chains to the frame or hook retainers
of the vehicle hitch. To connect the trailer’s safety chains, cross the
chains under the trailer tongue and allow slack for turning corners.
If you use a rental trailer, follow the instructions that the rental agency
gives to you.
Do not attach safety chains to the bumper.
Trailer brakes
Electric, manual, automatic or surge-type brakes, if compatible with the
vehicle, are safe if installed properly and adjusted to the manufacturer’s
specifications. The trailer brakes must meet local and Federal
regulations.
WARNING: Do not connect a trailer’s hydraulic brake system
directly to your vehicle’s brake system. Your vehicle may not
have enough braking power and your chances of having a
collision greatly increase.
The braking system of the tow vehicle is rated for operation at the
GVWR not GCWR.
Trailer lamps
Trailer lamps are required on most towed vehicles. Make sure all running
lights, brake lights, turn signals and hazard lights are working. See your
authorized Mazda dealer for proper instructions and equipment for
hooking up trailer lamps.
