Except U.S.A. and CANADA
Use SAE 5W-30 engine oil.
Oil container labels provide important
information.
A chief contribution this type of oil makes
to fuel economy is reducing the amount of
fuel necessary to overcome engine
friction.
For maintenance service, Mazda
recommends Mazda Genuine Parts and
Castrol
®(Mexico only).
(ILSAC)
The quality designation SM, or ILSAC
must be on the label.

5. Pull it out again and examine the level. The level is normal if it is between
Low or MIN and Full or MAX.
If it is near or below Low or MIN, add
enough oil to bring the level to Full or
MAX.
CAUTION
Do not add engine oil over Full or
MAX. This may cause engine
damage.
