In the unlikely event that the vehicle were to hit a pedestrian and a certain amount
of impact is applied to the front of the vehicle, impact to the head of the pedestrian
if it were to hit the bonnet is lessened by the rear area of the bonnet raising
instantly to maintain a wide space between it and the parts in the engine
compartment. If the sensor installed to the back of the front bumper detects a
certain amount of impact by a collision with a pedestrian or other obstruction
while the vehicle is being driven at a speed sufficient to activate the system, the
system is activated and the bonnet is raised.

• Flat Tyre
Either run-flat tyres or conventional tyres are equipped on your Mazda depending
on the specification, therefore the procedure for repairing a flat tyre differs
depending on the type of tyre. Before driving, make sure which type of tyre is
equipped on your Mazda. If you cannot identify your tyre type, consult an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
• Overheating
1. Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way.
2. Check whether coolant or steam is escaping from the engine compartment.
If steam is coming from the engine compartment:
Do not go near the front of the vehicle. Stop the engine.
Wait until the steam dissipates, then open the bonnet and start the engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is escaping:
Open the bonnet and idle the engine until it cools.
• Towing Description
We recommend that towing be done only by an expert repairer, we recommend
an Authorised Mazda Repairer or a commercial tow-truck service.
• Warning Lights and Warning Sounds

details concerning the warning light or sound in this guide. If the problem
cannot be resolved, contact an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
