Before Driving
Fuel and Emission
Fuel-Filler Flap and Cap
WARNING
When removing the fuel-¿ ller cap,
loosen the cap slightly and wait for any
hissing to stop, then remove it:
Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can
burn skin and eyes and cause illness
if ingested. Fuel spray is released
when there is pressure in the fuel tank
and the fuel-¿ ller cap is removed too
quickly.
Before refuelling, stop the engine, and
always keep sparks and À ames away
from the ¿ ller neck:
Fuel vapour is dangerous. It could be
ignited by sparks or À ames causing
serious burns and injuries.
Additionally, use of the incorrect fuel-
¿ ller cap or not using a fuel-¿ ller cap
may result in a fuel leak, which could
result in serious burns or death in an
accident.
Do not continue refuelling after
the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically:
Continuing to add fuel after the fuel
pump nozzle has shut off automatically
is dangerous because over¿ lling the
fuel tank may cause fuel overÀ ow or
leakage. Fuel overÀ ow and leakage
could damage the vehicle and if the
fuel ignites it could cause a ¿ re and
explosion resulting in serious injury or
death.
CAUTION
Always use only a designated Mazda
fuel-¿ ller cap or an approved equivalent,
available at an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer. The wrong cap can result in
a serious malfunction of the fuel and
emission control systems.
