Cargo Securing Loops
WA R N I N G
Make sure luggage and cargo is secured before driving:
Not securing cargo while driving is dangerous as
it could move or be crushed during sudden
braking or a collision and cause injury.
Use the loops in the luggage compartment to secure cargo with a rope or net. The tensile
strength of the loops is 196 N (20 kgf, 44 lbf). Do not apply excessive force to the loops as
it will damage them.

NOTE
Changing the coolant should be done by
an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
Inspect the antifreeze protection and
coolant level in the coolant reservoir at
least once a year―at the beginning of the
winter season―and before travelling
where temperatures may drop below
freezing.

Inspect the condition and connections of
all cooling system and heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.

The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the F and L marks on
the coolant reservoir when the engine is
cool.
SKYACTIV-G 2.0 and SKYACTIV-G
2.5

SKYACTIV-D 2.2

If it is at or near L, add enough coolant to
the coolant reservoir to provide freezing
and corrosion protection and to bring the
level to F.
Securely tighten the c oolant reservoir tank
cap after adding coolant.
CAUTION
 Radiator coolant will damage paint.
Rinse it
off quickly if spilled.
 If the “FL22” mark is shown on or near
the cooling system cap, 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.

If the coolant reserv oir is empty or new
coolant is required frequently, consult an
expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.

Keep all flames, including cigarettes, and sparks away from open battery cells:
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced during
normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An exploding battery
can cause serious burns and injuries.
NOTE
Before performing battery maintenance, remove the battery cover.

▼ Battery Maintenance
To get the best service from a battery:
•Keep it securely mounted.
•Keep the top clean and dry.
•Keep terminals and connections clean,
tight, and coated with
petroleum jelly or
terminal grease.
•Rinse off spilled electrolyte immediately
with a solution of water and baking
soda.
•If the vehicle will not be used for an
extended time, disconnect the battery
leads and charge the battery every six
weeks.

3. Pull the fuse straight out with the fusepuller provided on the fuse block
located in the eng ine compartment.
4. Inspect the fuse and replace it if it is
blown.
Normal Blown
5. Insert a new fu
se of the same
amperage rating, and make sure it fits
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.
Replacing the fuse s under the bonnet
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the fuses in
the cabin are normal, inspect the fuse
block under the bonnet. If a fuse is blown,
it must be replaced. Follow these steps:

1. Make sure the ignition is switched off,
and other switches are off.
2. Remove the fuse block cover.

dangerous because the MAIN fuse is a
high current fuse. Incorrect
replacement could cause an electrical
shock or a short circuit resulting in a
fire.
