Maintenance and Care
Appearance Care
*Some models.
Seat Belt Maintenance
1. Clean the soiled area by lightly dabbing
it with a soft cloth soaked in a mild
detergent (approx. 5%) diluted with
water.
2. Wipe off the remaining detergent using
a cloth soaked in clean water and
wrung out well.
3. Before retracting seat belts which have
been pulled out for cleaning, dry them
off thoroughly and make sure there is
no remaining moisture on them.

WARNING
If a seat belt appears frayed or has
abrasions, have it replaced by an
Authorized Mazda Dealer:
If a seat belts is used under such a
condition, it cannot function at its full
capacity which could result in serious
injury or death.

Use a mild detergent to remove soiling
from a seat belt:
If organic solvents are used for
cleaning the seat belts or they
become stained or bleached, there
is the possibility of them becoming
weakened and as a result, they may
not function at their full capacity
which could cause serious injury or
death.

NOTE
Clean seat belts diligently if they get
dirty. Leaving them uncleaned will make
it diffi cult to clean them later, and it may
affect the smooth retracting of the seat
belt.

Vinyl Upholstery Maintenance
Remove dust and dirt from the vinyl
upholstery using a brush or vacuum.
Remove soiling from vinyl upholstery
using a leather and vinyl upholstery
cleaner.
Upholstery Maintenance
1. Clean the soiled area by lightly dabbing
it with a soft cloth soaked in a mild
detergent (approx. 5%) diluted with
water.
2. Wipe off the remaining detergent using
a cloth soaked in clean water and
wrung out well.

Leather Upholstery Maintenance *
1. Remove dust and sand using a vacuum
cleaner.
2. Wipe off the soiled area with a soft
cloth and a suitable, special cleaner or
a soft cloth soaked in a mild detergent
(about 5%) diluted with water.
3. Wipe off the remaining detergent using
a cloth soaked in clean water and
wrung out well.
4. Remove moisture with a dry, soft cloth
and allow the leather to further dry in
a well-ventilated, shaded area. If the
leather gets wet such as from rain,
remove the moisture and dry it as soon
as possible.

Maintenance and Care
Appearance Care
*Some models.
Active Driving Display
Maintenance *
The dust-proof sheet has a coating. When
cleaning, do not use a hard or rough-
surface cloth, or cleaning detergent. In
addition, if a chemical solvent gets on
the active driving display, wipe it off
immediately. The dust-proof sheet could
be damaged and the surface coating could
be scratched. Use a fi ne, soft cloth such as
those used for cleaning eyeglasses.
NOTE
Use of compressed air when cleaning the
dust-proof sheet is recommended.

Cleaning the Window Interiors
If the windows become covered with an
oily, greasy, or waxy fi lm, clean them with
glass cleaner. Follow the directions on the
container.
CAUTION
 


 Do not scrape or scratch the inside of
the window glass. It could damage the
thermal fi laments and the antenna lines.
 


 When washing the inside of the window
glass, use a soft cloth dampened in
lukewarm water, gently wiping the
thermal fi laments and the antenna lines.
  Use of glass cleaning products could
damage the thermal fi laments and the
antenna lines.

Cleaning the Floor Mats
Rubber fl oor mats should be cleaned with
mild soap and water only.
WARNING
Do not use rubber cleaners, such as tire
cleaner or tire shine, when cleaning
rubber fl oor mats:
Cleaning the rubber fl oor mats with
rubber cleaning products makes the
fl oor mats slippery.
This may cause an accident when
depressing the accelerator or brake
pedal or when getting in or out of the
vehicle.

After removing the fl oor mats for cleaning,
always reinstall them securely (page
3-51 ).

Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
*Some models.
Signal Warning

TCS/DSC Indicator
Light If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or the brake assist system may have a malfunction and
they may not operate correctly. Take your vehicle to an Authorized Mazda Dealer.


Air Bag/Front Seat
Belt Pretensioner
System Warning
Light A system malfunction is indicated if the warning light constantly fl ashes, constantly
illuminates or does not illuminate at all when the ignition is switched ON. If any of these
occur, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible. The system may not operate
in an accident. WARNING
Never tamper with the air bag/pretensioner systems and always have an Authorized
Mazda Dealer perform all servicing and repairs:
Self-servicing or tampering with the systems is dangerous. An air bag/pretensioner
could accidentally activate or become disabled causing serious injury or death.


(Flashing)
Tire Pressure
Monitoring System
Warning Light
* If the tire pressure monitoring system has a malfunction, the tire pressure warning
light fl ashes for about 1 minute when the ignition is switched ON and then continues
illuminating. Have your vehicle checked by an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
WARNING
If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light illuminates or fl ashes, or the tire
pressure warning beep sound is heard, decrease vehicle speed immediately and avoid
sudden maneuvering and braking:
If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light illuminates or fl ashes, or the tire
pressure warning beep sound is heard, it is dangerous to drive the vehicle at high
speeds, or perform sudden maneuvering or braking. Vehicle drivability could worsen
and result in an accident.
To determine if you have a slow leak or a fl at, pull over to a safe position where you can
check the visual condition of the tire and determine if you have enough air to proceed
to a place where air may be added and the system monitored again by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer or a tire repair station.

Do not ignore the TPMS Warning Light:
Ignoring the TPMS warning light is dangerous, even if you know why it is illuminated.
Have the problem taken care of as soon as possible before it develops into a more
serious situation that could lead to tire failure and a dangerous accident.

Signal Warning Action to be taken


(Illuminate)
Tire Pressure Monitoring
System Warning Light
* When the warning light illuminates, and
the warning beep sound is heard (about 3
seconds), tire pressure is too low in one or
more tires.
WARNING
If the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light illuminates or fl ashes,
or the tire pressure warning beep
sound is heard, decrease vehicle
speed immediately and avoid sudden
maneuvering and braking:
If the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light illuminates or fl ashes, or
the tire pressure warning beep sound
is heard, it is dangerous to drive the
vehicle at high speeds, or perform
sudden maneuvering or braking.
Vehicle drivability could worsen and
result in an accident.
To determine if you have a slow leak
or a fl at, pull over to a safe position
where you can check the visual
condition of the tire and determine
if you have enough air to proceed to
a place where air may be added and
the system monitored again by an
Authorized Mazda Dealer or a tire
repair station.

Do not ignore the TPMS Warning Light:
Ignoring the TPMS warning light is
dangerous, even if you know why it is
illuminated. Have the problem taken
care of as soon as possible before it
develops into a more serious situation
that could lead to tire failure and a
dangerous accident. Inspect the tires and adjust to the
specifi ed infl ation pressure (page
6-43 ).
NOTE
 Perform tire pressure adjustment when
the tires are cold. Tire pressure will
vary according to the tire temperature,
therefore let the vehicle stand for 1
hour or only drive it 1.6 km (1 mile) or
less before adjusting the tire pressures.
When pressure is adjusted on hot tires
to the cold infl ation pressure, the TPMS
warning light/beep may turn on after
the tires cool and pressure drops below
specifi cation.
Also, an illuminated TPMS warning
light, resulting from the tire air
pressure dropping due to cold ambient
temperature will remain illuminated
even if the ambient temperature rises.
In this case, it will also be necessary
to adjust the tire air pressures. If the
TPMS warning light illuminates due to
a drop in tire air pressure, make sure to
check and adjust the tire air pressures.

 Tires lose air naturally over time and
the TPMS cannot tell if the tires are
getting too soft over time or you have
a fl at. However, when you fi nd one low
tire in a set of four-that is an indication
of trouble; you should have someone
drive the vehicle slowly forward so
you can inspect any low tire for cuts
and any metal objects sticking through
tread or sidewall. Put a few drops of
water in the valve stem to see if it
bubbles indicating a bad valve. Leaks
need to be addressed by more than
simply reinfl ating the tire as leaks are
dangerous — take it to an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
