WARNING
Always adjust the audio while the
vehicle is stopped:
Do not adjust the audio control
switches while driving the vehicle.
Adjusting the audio while driving
the vehicle is dangerous as it could
distract your attention from the vehicle
operation which could lead to a serious
accident.
Even if the audio control switches are
equipped on the steering wheel, learn
to use the switches without looking
down at them so that you can keep your
maximum attention on the road while
driving the vehicle.
CAUTION
For the purposes of safe driving, adjust
the audio volume to a level that allows
you to hear sounds outside of the vehicle
including car horns and particularly
emergency vehicle sirens.
NOTE
  To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the audio
system on for a long period of time
when the engine is not running.
  If a cellular phone or CB radio is
used in or near the vehicle, it could
cause noise to occur from the audio
system, however, this does not
indicate that the system has been
damaged.
Do not spill any liquid on the audio
system.


Do not insert any objects, other than CDs,
into the slot.

CAUTION
  To prevent accessory socket damage
or electrical failure, pay attention to
the following:
 


 Do not use accessories that require
more than 120 W (DC 12 V, 10 A).
 


 Do not use accessories that are not
genuine Mazda accessories or the
equivalent.
 


 Close the cover when the accessory
socket is not in use to prevent
foreign objects and liquids from
getting into the accessory socket.
 


 Correctly insert the plug into the
accessory socket.
 


 Do not insert the cigarette lighter
into the accessory socket.
 
 Noise may occur on the audio
playback depending on the device
connected to the accessory socket.
  Depending on the device connected
to the accessory socket, the vehicle's
electrical system may be affected,
which could cause the warning light to
illuminate. Disconnect the connected
device and make sure that the problem
is resolved. If the problem is resolved,
disconnect the device from the socket
and switch the ignition off. If the
problem is not resolved, consult an
expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.

NOTE
To prevent discharging of the battery, do
not use the socket for long periods with
the engine off or idling.
Cup Holder
WARNING
Never use a cup holder to hold hot
liquids while the vehicle is moving:
Using a cup holder to hold hot
liquids while the vehicle is moving is
dangerous. If the contents spill, you
could be scalded.

Do not put anything other than cups or
drink cans in cup holders:
Putting objects other than cups
or drink cans in a cup holder is
dangerous.
During sudden braking or
manoeuvring, occupants could be
hit and injured, or objects could be
thrown around the vehicle, causing
interference with the driver and the
possibility of an accident. Only use a
cup holder for cups or drink cans.

Scheduled Maintenance
*5 Flexible setting is factory preset for 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 À 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.
Reset the engine oil data whenever replacing the engine oil regardless of the message/wrench indicator light
display.
*6 If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, replace the engine oil and oil ¿ lter at
every 10,000 km (6,250 miles) or shorter.
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
d) Driving for long period in cold temperatures or driving regularly at short distance only
e) Driving in extremely hot conditions
f) Driving in mountainous conditions continually
*7 For SKYACTIV-D 1.5, reset the engine oil data whenever replacing the engine oil regardless of the message/
wrench indicator light display.
*8 Use of FL-22 is recommended when replacing engine coolant. Using engine coolant other than FL-22 may
cause serious damage to the engine and cooling system.
*9 Inspect the battery electrolyte level, speci¿ c gravity and outer appearance. The sealed battery only requires an
outer appearance inspection.
*10 If the brakes are used extensively (for example, continuous hard driving or mountain driving) or if the vehicle
is operated in extremely humid climates, replace the brake À uid annually.
*11 If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, replace the rear differential oil at
every 45,000 km (27,000 miles).
a) Towing a trailer or using a car-top carrier
b) Driving in dusty, sandy or wet condition
c) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
d) Repeated short trips of less than 16 km (10 miles)
*12 If this component has been submerged in water, the oil should be replaced.
*13 Tyre rotation is recommended every 10,000 km (6,250 miles).
*14 The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) initialization must be performed so that the system operates
normally (if equipped).
*15 Check the tyre repair À uid expiration date every year when performing the periodic maintenance. Replace the
tyre repair À uid bottle with new one before the expiration date.
