When choosing an oil, consider the temperature range your vehicle will operate in before
the next oil change.
Then select the recommended viscosity from the chart.
CAUTION
  Using oils of viscosity besides those recommended for speci¿ c temperature ranges
could result in engine damage.
 
 (SKYACTIV-D 1.5)  SKYACTIV-D 1.5 uses speci¿ ed oil. Please con¿ rm the speci¿ cation in owner's
manual. If engine oil other than the speci¿ ed oil is used, the Diesel Particulate
Filter effective period of use will be shortened or the Diesel Particulate Filter may
be damaged.
NOTE

(SKYACTIV-G 2.0) 

 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 6-25 .
 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.

NOTE
(SKYACTIV-D 1.5)
When inspecting the engine oil level,
pull out the dipstick straight without
twisting. In addition, when inserting
the dipstick, always insert it without
twisting so that the “X” mark faces the
front of the vehicle.
5. Pull it out again and examine the level.
The level is normal if it is between the
MIN and MAX marks.
If it is near or below MIN, add enough
oil to bring the level to MAX.
CAUTION
Do not over¿ ll the engine oil. This may
cause engine damage.
6. Make sure the O-ring on the dipstick is
positioned properly before reinserting
the dipstick.
7. Reinsert the dipstick fully.
