WARNING
Do not perform maintenance work if you lack suf¿ cient knowledge and experience
or the proper tools and equipment to do the work. Have maintenance work done by a
quali¿ ed technician:
Performing maintenance work on a vehicle is dangerous if not done properly. You can

If you must run the engine while working under the bonnet, make certain that you
remove all jewellery (especially rings, bracelets, watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar loose clothing before getting near the engine or cooling

Pull over to a safe location, then switch the ignition off and make sure the fan is
not running before attempting to work near the cooling fan:
Working near the cooling fan when it is running is dangerous. The fan could continue
running inde¿ nitely even if the engine has stopped and the engine compartment

NOTE
(SKYACTIV-G 1.3 and SKYACTIV-G 1.5) 

 It is normal for all engines to consume engine oil under normal driving conditions.  Engine oil consumption may be as high as 0.8 L/1,000 km (1 L/800 miles). This may
be as a result of evaporation, internal ventilation or burning of the lubricating oil in
the working engine. Oil consumption may be higher when the engine is new due to
the running-in process. Oil consumption is also dependant on engine speed and engine
load. Under extreme driving conditions, oil consumption may be higher.

(SKYACTIV-D 1.5) 

 Whenever the engine oil is replaced, the vehicles engine control unit needs to be
reset as soon as possible. Otherwise the wrench indicator light or engine oil warning
light may turn on. To reset the engine control unit, consult an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer or refer to the vehicle engine control unit
reset procedure on page 6-27 .
 Inspect the engine oil level periodically. When inspecting the engine oil, if the engine
oil level is exceeds the “X” mark on the dipstick, replace the engine oil. This should
be done by an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer. When
replacing the engine oil, inspect the oil level using the oil dipstick and re¿ ll so that the
engine oil level is within the range between MIN and MAX as shown in the ¿ gure.
