element will be melted.
 
If the same fuse blows again, avoid using
that system and consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda

tightly. If it does not  fit tightly, have an
expert install it. We recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
If you have no spare fuses, borrow one
of the same rating from a circuit not
essential to vehicle  operation, such as
the AUDIO or OUTLET circuit.
CAUTION
Always replace a fuse with a genuine
Mazda fuse or equivalent of the same
rating. Otherwise you may damage the
electric system.
6. Reinstall the cover and make sure that it is securely installed.

•(19-inch wheel vehicle)
If your aluminium wheels lose lustre,
apply wax which contains no polishing
powder.
▼Plastic Part Maintenance
•When cleaning the plastic lenses of the
lights, do not use petrol, paraffin,
rectified spirit, paint, thinner, highly
acidic detergents, or strongly alkaline
detergents. Otherwise, these chemical
agents can discolour or damage the
surfaces resulting in a significant loss in
functionality. If plastic parts become
inadvertently exposed to any of these
chemical agents, flush with water
immediately.
•If plastic parts s
uch as the bumpers
become inadvertently exposed to
chemical agents or fluids such as petrol,
oil, engine coolant,  or battery fluid, it
could cause discolouration, staining, or
paint peeling. Wipe off any such
chemical agents or fluids using a soft
cloth immediately.
•High water temperature and high water
pressure car washers are available
depending on the type of high pressure
car washer device. If the car washer
nozzle is put too close to the vehicle or
aimed at one area for an extended period
of time, it could defo rm plastic parts or
damage the paint.
•Do not use wax containing compounds
(polish). Otherwise, it could result in
paint damage.
•In addition, do not u se an electrical or
air tool to apply wax. Otherwise, the
frictional heat generated could result in
deformation of plastic parts or paint
damage.
Interior Care
WA R N I N G
Do not spray water into the vehicle cabin:
Spraying water into the vehicle cabin is
dangerous as electrical devices such as the
audio and switches could get wet resulting
in a malfunction or vehicle fire.
NOTE
•Do not wipe the interior using alcohol,
chlorine bleach, or organic solvents
such as thinner, benzene, and petrol.
Otherwise, it may cause discolouration
or stains.
•Rubbing hard with a stiff brush or cloth
may cause damage.
If the vehicle interior becomes soiled by
any of the following, wipe it off
immediately using a soft cloth.
Leaving it uncleaned could cause
discolouration, stains, cracks, or peeling of
the coating, and it will make it hard to
wipe off later.
•Beverage or fragrance
•Grease or oil
•Soiling
