When Driving
4WD
4-Wheel Drive (4WD)
Operation
*
4WD provides excellent drivability on
snow-covered and ice-packed roads, sand
and mud, as well as on steep slopes and
other slippery surfaces.
A system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page
4-37 .
WARNING
Never spin a wheel that is off the
ground:
Spinning a wheel that is off the ground
as a result of the vehicle being stuck
or in a ditch is dangerous. The drive
assembly could be seriously damaged
which could lead to an accident or
could even lead to overheating, oil
leakage, and a fi re.
4WD Driving
This vehicle has not been designed for the
purpose of off-road driving or rallies. Do
not attempt to drive over uneven or rocky
surfaces, or across rivers.
Although this vehicle is equipped with
4WD, acceleration, steering and braking
operations should be conducted in the
same manner as with a non-4WD vehicle,
with the emphasis placed on safe driving.
Tyres and Tyre Chains
The condition of the tyres plays a large
role in the performance of the vehicle.
Moreover, to prevent adverse effects to the
drive assembly, please note the following:
T y r e s
 




 When replacing tyres, always replace all
front and rear tyres at the same time.
 


 All tyres must be of the same size,
manufacture, brand and tread pattern.
Pay particular attention when equipping
snow or other types of winter tyres.
 


 Do not mix tread-worn tyres with
normal tyres.
 


(With tyre pressure monitoring
system)
  Inspect tyre infl ation pressures at the
specifi ed periods adjust to the specifi ed
pressures, and initialize the tyre pressure
monitoring system.
NOTE
Check the tyre infl ation pressure label
attached to driver's door frame for the
correct tyre infl ation pressure.




 Make sure to equip the vehicle with
genuine wheels of the specifi ed size,
on all wheels. With 4WD, the system is
calibrated for all four wheels being of
the same dimensions.

When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
NOTE
  Under the following conditions,
the radar sensor (front) may not
be able to detect vehicles ahead
or obstructions correctly and each
system may not operate normally.
 


 The rear surface of a vehicle
ahead does not refl ect radio waves
effectively, such as an unloaded
trailer or an automobile with a
loading platform covered by a
soft top, vehicles with a hard
plastic tailgate, and round-shaped
vehicles.
 


 Vehicles ahead with low vehicle
height and thus less area for
refl ecting radio waves.




 Visibility is reduced due to a
vehicle ahead casting off water,
snow, or sand from its tyres and
onto your windscreen.
 


 The luggage compartment is
loaded with heavy objects or the
rear passenger seats are occupied.
 


 Ice, snow, or soiling is on the front
surface of the front emblem.
 


 During inclement weather such as
rain, snow, or sand storms.
 


 When driving near facilities or
objects emitting strong radio
waves.
NOTE
  Under the following conditions,
the radar sensor (front) may not
be able to detect vehicles ahead or
obstructions.
 


 The beginning and end of a curve.



 Roads with continuous curves.



 Narrow lane roads due to road
construction or lane closures.
 


 The vehicle ahead enters the radar
sensor's blind spot.
 


 The vehicle ahead is running
abnormally due to accident or
vehicle damage.
 


 Roads with repeated up and down
slopes
 


 Driving on poor roads or unpaved
roads.
 


 The distance between your vehicle
and the vehicle ahead is extremely
short.
 


 A vehicle suddenly comes close
such as by cutting into the lane.


 To prevent incorrect operation of
the system, use tyres of the same
specifi ed size, manufacturer, brand,
and tread pattern on all four wheels.
In addition, do not use tyres with
signifi cantly different wear patterns
or tyre pressures on the same vehicle
(Including the temporary spare tyre).
  If the battery power is weak, the
system may not operate correctly.
  When driving on roads with little
traffi c and few vehicles ahead or
obstructions for the radar sensor to
detect, Smart Brake Support/Smart
City Brake Support (SBS/SCBS)
Warning Light (amber) temporarily
illuminates, however, this does not
indicate a problem.

than the recommended intervals.
*3 Implement the fuel injection amount correction.
*4 Also inspect the air conditioner drive belts, if installed.
If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, inspect the drive belts at every 20,000
km (12,500 miles) or 12 months .
a) Driving in dusty conditions
b) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
c) Driving for long period in cold temperatures or driving regularly at short distance only
d) Driving in extremely hot conditions
e) Driving in mountainous conditions continually
*5 SKYACTIV-G 2.0 vehicles can select fl exible setting only some countries in Europe. Consult an Authorised
Mazda Repairer for details. Flexible setting can be set if the vehicle is operated mainly where none of the
following conditions apply.
a) Purpose of vehicle use is police car, taxi or driving school car.
b) Driving in dusty conditions
c) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
Once the fl exible maintenance is selected, the vehicle calculates the remaining oil life based on engine operating
conditions and lets you know when an oil change is due by illuminating the wrench indicator light in the
instrument cluster.
Replace the engine oil and fi lter when message/wrench indicator light is ON. And they must be changed at least
once a year or within 20,000 km (12,500 miles) since last engine oil and fi lter change.
The system must be reset whenever replacing the engine oil regardless of the message/wrench indicator light
display.
