could lead to a serious accident.

N O T E
Use the temperature control dial to
increase the air À ow temperature and
defog the windshield more quickly.

Sunlight/Temperature Sensor

until the voice guidance or the beep
sound is ¿ nished before saying your
commands.




y Dialects or different wording other
than hands-free prompts cannot be
recognized by voice recognition. Speak
in the wording speci¿ ed by the voice

Brake Fluid
Inspecting Brake Fluid Level
WARNING
If the brake fl uid level is low, have the
brakes inspected:
A low brake fl uid level is dangerous.
A low level could indicate brake lining
wear or a brake system leak which
could cause the brakes to fail and lead
to an accident.

Inspect the À uid level in the reservoir
regularly. It should be kept between the
MAX and MIN lines.
The level normally drops with
accumulated distance, a condition
associated with wear of brake linings. If it
is excessively low, have the brake system
inspected by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.


Window Washer Fluid
Inspecting Washer Fluid Level
WARNING
Use only windshield washer fl uid or
plain water in the reservoir:
Using radiator antifreeze as washer
fl uid is dangerous. If sprayed on the
windshield, it will dirty the windshield,
aff ect your visibility, and could result in
an accident.

Using Washer Fluid Without Anti-freeze
Protection in Cold Weather:
Operating your vehicle in temperatures
below 4 degrees C (40 degrees F)
using washer fl uid without anti-freeze
protection is dangerous as it could
cause impaired windshield vision and
result in an accident. In cold weather,
always use washer fl uid with anti-
freeze protection.

N O T E
State or local regulations may restrict the
use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs),
which are commonly used as anti-freeze
agents in washer À uid. A washer À uid with
limited VOC content should be used only
if it provides adequate freeze resistance
for all regions and climates in which the
vehicle will be operated.
