Maintenance and Care
Owner Maintenance
Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and bonnet hinges and locks, should
be lubricated each time the engine oil is
changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on
locks during cold weather.
Make sure the bonnet's secondary latch
keeps the bonnet from opening when the
primary latch is released.
Wiper Blades
CAUTION
  Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to affect
the wiper's ability to clean windows.
  To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, do not use petrol, paraf¿ n,
paint thinner, or other solvents on or
near them.
  When the wiper lever is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON, the wipers may move
automatically in the following cases:
 


 If the windscreen above the rain
sensor is touched.
 


 If the windscreen above the rain
sensor is wiped with a cloth.
 


 If the windscreen is struck with a
hand or other object.
 


 If the rain sensor is struck with a
hand or other object from inside
the vehicle.
  Be careful not to pinch hands or
¿ ngers as it may cause injury, or
damage the wipers. When washing or
servicing the vehicle, make sure the
wiper lever is in the OFF position.
Contamination of either the windscreen or
the blades with foreign matter can reduce
wiper effectiveness. Common sources are
insects, tree sap, and hot wax treatments
used by some commercial car washes.
If the blades are not wiping properly,
clean the window and blades with a good
cleaner or mild detergent; then rinse
thoroughly with clean water. Repeat if
necessary.

If Trouble Arises
Flat Tyre
*Some models.
F l a t T y r e *
Either run-À at tyres or conventional tyres
are equipped on your Mazda depending on
the speci¿ cation, therefore the procedure
for repairing a À at tyre differs depending
on the type of tyre. Before driving, make
sure which type of tyre is equipped on
your Mazda. If you cannot identify your
tyre type, consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
How to Identify Your Tyre Type
R u n -À at tyre
A run-À at tyre has a
and/or
indication on the side wall.
and/or
Conventional tyre
A conventional tyre does not have a
and/or indication on the side wall.
Vehicle with Run-À at Tyres
WARNING
Have the tyres checked or perform the
appropriate repair as soon as possible
by an expert repairer, we recommend
an Authorised Mazda Repairer:
When the À at tyre warning light
illuminates or the tyre pressure
warning beep sound is heard, it is
dangerous to drive the vehicle at
high speeds, or perform sudden
manoeuvring or braking. Vehicle
drivability could worsen and result in
an accident.
When the À at tyre warning light
illuminates or the tyre pressure
warning beep sound is heard, decrease
vehicle speed immediately and avoid
sudden manoeuvring and braking.
If a run-À at tyre is punctured, the FLAT
TIRE warning light illuminates in the
instrument cluster, and a beep sound is
heard for about 30 seconds.
NOTE
Until the À at tyre is changed, the beep
sound is heard for about 30 seconds
every time the ignition is switched ON.
