2019 MAZDA MODEL CX-30 Owners Manual (in English)

Floor Mat
▼Floor Mat
We recommend the use of Genuine
Mazda
floor mats.
WARNING
Make sure the
floor mats are secured
with the grommets or the retainers to
prevent them from bunching up
under the foot pedals (Driver's side):
Using a
floor mat that is not secured is
dangerous as it will interfere with the
accelerator and brake pedal operation
(driver's side), which could result in an
accident.
Only use a
floor mat which conforms
to the shape of the floor on the driver's
side and make sure it is oriented
correctly.
Secure the floor mat using the
grommets or retainers.
There are various ways to secure floor
mats depending on the type used,
therefore secure the mat according to
the type.
After installing the
floor mat, make
sure that it does not slide from side to
side or back and forth, and that there
is sufficient clearance with the
accelerator and brake pedals on the
driver's side.
After removing the floor mat for
cleaning or some other reason, always
securely reinstall it while paying
attention to the precautions just
mentioned.
Do not install two floor mats, one on
top of the other, on the driver's side:
Installing two floor mats, one on top of
the other, on the driver's side is
dangerous as the retention pins can
only keep one floor mat from sliding
forward.
Loose floor mat(s) will interfere with
the foot pedals and could result in an
accident.
If using an all-weather mat for winter
use always remove the original floor
mat.
When setting a
floor mat, position the
floor mat so that its grommets or
retainers are inserted over the pointed
end of the retention posts.

Rocking the Vehicle
▼Rocking the Vehicle
WARNING
Do not spin the wheels at high speed,
and do not allow anyone to stand
behind a wheel when pushing the
vehicle:
When the vehicle is stuck, spinning the
wheels at high speed is dangerous. The
spinning tyre could overheat and
explode. This could cause serious
injuries.
CAUTION
Too much rocking may cause engine
overheating , transmission failure, and
tyre damage.
If you must rock the vehicle to free it
from snow, sand or mud, depress the
accelerator slightly and slowly move
the shift lever/selector lever from 1 (D)
to R position.
Winter Driving
▼Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tyre
chains, window scraper,
flares, a small
shovel, jumper leads, and a small bag
of sand or salt.
Ask an expert repairer (we recommend
an Authorised Mazda Repairer) to
check the following:
xHave the proper ratio of antifreeze in
the radiator.
Refer to Engine Coolant on page
6-28.
xInspect the battery and its leads.
Cold reduces battery capacity.
xUse an engine oil appropriate for the
lowest ambient temperatures that
the vehicle will be driven in (page
6-24).
xInspect the ignition system for
damage and loose connections.
xUse washer fluid made with
antifreezeŠbut do not use engine
coolant antifreeze for washer fluid
(page 6-31).
NOTE
xRemove snow before driving. Snow
left on the windscreen is dangerous
as it could obstruct vision.
xDo not apply excessive force to a
window scraper when removing ice
or frozen snow on the mirror glass
and windscreen.
xNever use warm or hot water for
removing snow or ice from windows
and mirrors as it could result in the
glass cracking.
Before Driving
Driving Tips

xDrive slowly. Braking performance
can be adversely affected if snow or
ice adheres to the brake
components. If this situation occurs,
drive the vehicle slowly, releasing the
accelerator pedal and lightly applying
the brakes several times until the
brake performance returns to
normal.
▼Snow Tyres
WARNING
Use only the same size and type tyres
(snow, radial, or non-radial) on all 4
wheels:
Using tyres different in size or type is
dangerous. Your vehicle's handling
could be greatly affected and result in
an accident.
CAUTION
Check local regulations before using
studded tyres.
NOTE
If your vehicle is equipped with the tyre
pressure monitoring system, the system
may not function correctly when using
tyres with steel wire reinforcement in
the sidewalls (page 4-233).
Use snow tyres on all 4 wheels
Do not exceed the maximum
permissible speed for your snow tyres
or legal speed limits.
Europe
When snow tyres are used, select the
specified size and pressure (page
9-10).
▼Ty re C h a i n s
Check local regulations before using
tyre chains.
CAUTION
¾Chains may affect handling.
¾Do not go faster than 50 km/h (30
mph) or the chain manufacturer's
recommended limit, whichever is
lower.
¾Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, and sharp turns.
¾Avoid locked-wheel braking.
¾Do not use chains on a temporary
spare tyre; it may result in damage to
the vehicle and to the tyre.
In some models, the vehicle is not
equipped with a factory installed
temporary spare tyre.
¾Do not use chains on roads that are
free of snow or ice. The tyres and
chains could be damaged.
¾Chains may scratch or chip
aluminium wheels.
NOTE
If your vehicle is equipped with the tyre
pressure monitoring system, the system
may not function correctly when using
tyre chains.
Install the chains on the front tyres
only.
Do not use chains on the rear tyres.

Driving In Flooded Area
▼Driving In Flooded Area
WARNING
Dry off brakes that have become wet
by driving slowly, releasing the
accelerator pedal and lightly applying
the brakes several times until the
brake performance returns to normal:
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous.
Increased stopping distance or the
vehicle pulling to one side when
braking could result in a serious
accident. Light braking will indicate
whether the brakes have been
affected.
CAUTION
Do not drive the vehicle on flooded
roads as it could cause short circuiting
of electrical/electronic parts, or engine
damage or stalling from water
absorption. If the vehicle has been
immersed in water, consult an expert
repairer (we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer).
Turbocharger Information
(SKYACTIV-D 1.8)
▼Turbocharger Information
(SKYACTIV-D 1.8)
CAUTION
¾After driving at freeway speeds or up
a long hill, trailer towing for a long
time, idle the engine at least 30
seconds before stopping it.
Otherwise, the turbocharger could
be damaged. However, when i-stop
operates, idling is unnecessary.
¾Racing or over-revving the engine,
particularly after it's just been
started, can damage the
turbocharger.
¾To protect the engine from damage,
the engine is designed so that it
cannot be raced just after starting it
in extremely cold weather.
The turbocharger greatly enhances
engine power. Its advanced design
provides improved operation and
requires minimum maintenance.

To get the most from it, observe the
following.
1. Change engine oil and filter
according to Scheduled
Maintenance.
Refer to Europe on page 6-3.
Refer to Except Europe on page
6-6.
2. Use only recommended engine oil
(page 6-24). Extra additives are
NOT recommended.

Towing Caravans and
Trailers (Europe/Russia/
Turkey/Israel/South
Africa)
▼Towing Caravans and Trailers
Your Mazda was designed and built
primarily to carry passengers and
cargo.
If you tow a trailer, follow these
instructions because driver and
passenger safety depends on proper
equipment and safe driving habits.
Towing a trailer will affect handling,
braking, durability, performance, and
economy.
Never overload vehicle or trailer.
Consult an expert repairer (we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer) if you need further details.
CAUTION
¾Do not tow a trailer during the first
1,000 km (600 miles) of your new
Mazda. If you do, you may damage
the engine, transmission, differential,
wheel bearings, and other power
train components.
¾Damage caused by towing a trailer/
caravan in Turkey is not covered by
the vehicle's warranty.
NOTE
xWhen towing a trailer, do not use the
following safety systems (If a Mazda
genuine trailer hitch is used, these
systems are automatically turned
off):
xBlind Spot Monitoring (BSM)xRear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)xSmart Brake Support [Rear]
(SBS-R)
xSmart Brake Support [Rear
Crossing] (SBS-RC)

▼Weigh t L imits
The total trailer weight, gross combination weight and trailer nose weight must be
within the prescribed limits in the Trailer Towing-Load Table.

TOTAL TRAILER WEIGHT:
Sum of weights of the trailer and its load.

GROSS COMBINATION WEIGHT:
Sum of total trailer weight and towing vehicle weight; including trailer hitch, vehicle
passengers, and vehicle load.

TRAILER NOSE WEIGHT:
The weight exerted on the trailer tongue. It is varied by changing the weight
distribution when loading the trailer.

CAUTION
Be aware of the towing load weight differences when towing at high altitudes. For
altitudes exceeding 1,000 meter (3,280 ft 10 in), always reduce the towing load by
10% for every 1,000 meter (3,280 ft 10 in) increase in altitude from the load
