When Driving
i-ACTIV AWD
i-ACTIV AWD Operation
AWD provides excellent drivability on
snow-covered and ice-packed roads, sand
and mud, as well as on steep slopes and
other slippery surfaces.
A system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to Warning Lights on page 4-25 .
WARNING
Never spin a wheel that is off the
ground:
Spinning a wheel that is off the ground
as a result of the vehicle being stuck
or in a ditch is dangerous. The drive
assembly could be seriously damaged
which could lead to an accident or
could even lead to overheating, oil
leakage, and a fi re.

AWD Driving
This vehicle has not been designed for the
purpose of off-road driving or rallies. Do
not attempt to drive over uneven or rocky
surfaces, or across rivers.
Although this vehicle is equipped with
AWD, acceleration, steering and braking
operations should be conducted in the
same manner as with a non-AWD vehicle,
with the emphasis placed on safe driving.
Tires and Tire Chains
The condition of the tires plays a large
role in the performance of the vehicle.
Moreover, to prevent adverse effects to the
drive assembly, please note the following:
T i r e s
 




y When replacing tires, always replace all
front and rear tires at the same time.
 


y All tires must be of the same size,
manufacture, brand and tread pattern.
Pay particular attention when equipping
snow or other types of winter tires.
 


y Do not mix tread-worn tires with normal
tires.
 


y Inspect tire inÀ ation pressures at the
speci¿ ed periods adjust to the speci¿ ed
pressures, and initialize the tire pressure
monitoring system.
  Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Initialization on page 4-129 .

N O T E
Check the tire inÀ ation pressure label
attached to driver's door frame for the
correct tire inÀ ation pressure.




y Make sure to equip the vehicle with
genuine wheels of the speci¿ ed size, on
all wheels. With AWD, the system is
calibrated for all four wheels being of
the same dimensions.

Tire chains
 




y Install tire chains to the front tires.



y Do not use tire chains on the rear
wheels.
 


y Do not drive the vehicle faster than
30 km/h (19 mph) with the tire chains
installed.
 


y Do not drive the vehicle with tire chains
on road conditions other than snow or
ice.

When Driving
i-ACTIVSENSE
N O T E
 


y Under the following conditions, the radar sensor (front) may not be able to detect
vehicles ahead or obstructions correctly and each system may not operate normally.
 


y The rear surface of a vehicle ahead does not reÀ ect radio waves effectively, such as
an unloaded trailer or an automobile with a loading platform covered by a soft top,
vehicles with a hard plastic tailgate, and round-shaped vehicles.
 


y Vehicles ahead with low vehicle height and thus less area for reÀ ecting radio waves.



y Visibility is reduced due to a vehicle ahead casting off water, snow, or sand from its
tires and onto your windshield.
 


y The luggage compartment is loaded with heavy objects or the rear passenger seats are
occupied.
 


y Ice, snow, or soiling is on the front surface of the front emblem.



y During inclement weather such as rain, snow, or sand storms.



y When driving near facilities or objects emitting strong radio waves. 



y Under the following conditions, the radar sensor (front) may not be able to detect
vehicles ahead or obstructions.
 


y The beginning and end of a curve.



y Roads with continuous curves.



y Narrow lane roads due to road construction or lane closures.



y The vehicle ahead enters the radar sensor's blind spot.



y The vehicle ahead is running abnormally due to accident or vehicle damage.



y Roads with repeated up and down slopes



y Driving on poor roads or unpaved roads.



y The distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is extremely short.



y A vehicle suddenly comes close such as by cutting into the lane. 



y To prevent incorrect operation of the system, use tires of the same speci¿ ed size,
manufacturer, brand, and tread pattern on all four wheels. In addition, do not use tires
with signi¿ cantly different wear patterns or tire pressures on the same vehicle (Including
the temporary spare tire).
 


y If the battery power is weak, the system may not operate correctly.



y If the vehicle is driven on a road with little traf¿ c and few vehicles ahead or obstructions
for the radar sensor (front) to detect, the sensor detects that the radar sensor (front) is
dirty and the Smart Brake Support/Smart City Brake Support (SBS/SCBS) Warning Light
(amber) may be temporarily turned on. However, it does not indicate a malfunction.

Remarks:
*1 The engine oil and ¿ lter must be changed at least once a year or within 16,000 km (10,000 miles) since last
engine oil and ¿ lter change. The system must be reset whenever replacing the engine oil regardless of the
message/wrench indicator light display.
*2 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.
*3 According to state/provincial and federal regulations, failure to perform maintenance on these items will not
void your emissions warranties. However, Mazda recommends that all maintenance services be performed at the
recommended time or mileage/kilometer period to ensure long-term reliability.
*4 The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) initialization must be performed so that the system operates
normally (if equipped).
*5 If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, replace the rear differential oil at
every 48,000 km (30,000 miles).
a) Towing a trailer or using a car-top carrier
b) Driving in dusty, sandy or wet conditions
c) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
d) Repeated short trips of less than 16 km (10 miles)
*6 If this component has been submerged in water, the oil should be replaced.
*7 Check the tire repair À uid expiration date every year when performing the periodic maintenance. Replace the
tire repair À uid bottle with new one before the expiration date.

*3 To equalize tread wear for maintaining good performance in handling and braking, rotate the tires every 12,000
km (7,500 miles). However Mazda recommends to rotate every 8,000 km (5,000 miles) to help increase tire life
and distribute wear more evenly.
