Brake Fluid
qInspecting Brake Fluid Level
WARNING
If the brake fluid level is low, have the
brakes inspected:
A low brake fluid level is dangerous.
A low level could indicate brake
lining wear or a brake system leak
which could cause the brakes to fail
and lead to an accident.
Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir
regularly. It should be kept between the
MAX and MIN lines.
The level normally drops with
accumulated distance, a condition
associated with wear of brake linings. If it
is excessively low, have the brake system
inspected by an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

Level
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the power
steering pump, do not operate the
vehicle for long periods when the
power steering fluid level is low.
Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir at
each engine oil change with the engine off
and cold.
The level must be kept between MAX and
MIN.
Visually examine the lines and hoses for
leaks and damage.
If the fluid decreases significantly or the
fluid level is around MIN or lower than
MIN, consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer to have the vehicle inspected.
