xMake sure the trailer cargo is secure
to prevent it from shifting.
xMake sure the mirrors meet all
government regulations. Inspect
them.
xBefore starting out, inspect the
operation of all vehicle and trailer
lights and all vehicle-to-trailer
connections. Stop and re-inspect all
lights and connections after driving a
short distance.
Driving
xYour Mazda will handle differently
with a trailer in tow, so practice
turning , backing , and stopping in a
traffic-free area.
xTake time to get accustomed to the
extra weight and length.
xDo not exceed 100 km/h (62 mph)
with a trailer in tow. If the local legal
maximum speed with a trailer in tow
is less than 100 km/h (62 mph), do
not exceed the legal speed.
CAUTION
If the vehicle exceeds 100 km/h (62
mph) with a trailer in tow, the
vehicle could be damaged.
xWhen ascending a hill, shift into a
lower gear to reduce the possibility
of overloading or overheating the
engine, or both.
xWhen descending a hill, shift into a
lower gear and use engine
compression as a braking effect. Pay
constant attention to speed and use
the brakes only as needed. Holding
the brake pedal down for a
prolonged period may cause the
brakes to overheat and lose power.
Parking
Avoid parking on an incline with a
trailer. If this must be done, follow
these instructions.
Parking on an Incline
1. Set the parking brake and the
brakes.
2. Have someone block the wheels of
the vehicle and trailer while you
apply the brakes.
3. After the wheels are blocked,
release the parking brake and the
brakes slowly, allowing the blocks
to bear the load.
4. Set the parking brake firmly.
5. If the vehicle has an automatic
transmission, put the selector lever
in P position. If it has a manual
transmission, place the gear shift in
1 or R position.
Starting on an Incline
1. Start the engine (page 4-5).
2. Release the parking brake and
slowly pull away a short distance
from the wheel blocks.
3. Stop on the nearest level ground,
set the parking brake, and pick up
the wheel blocks.

360°View Monitor Range
1. Cameras
2. Ultrasonic sensors
3. Front/Rear side radar sensors
WARNING
Always confirm the safety of the area
around the vehicle with the mirrors
and directly with your eyes when
driving:
The 360°View Monitor is an auxiliary
device which assists the driver in
checking the safety of the area around
the vehicle.
The shooting range of the cameras and
detection range of the sensors are
limited. For example, the areas in black
at the front and rear of the vehicle
image and the seams where each of
the camera images merge are blind
spots where an obstruction may not be
visible. In addition, the extended
vehicle width lines and projected
vehicle path lines are only to be used
as references, and the images on the
screen may differ from the actual
conditions.
CAUTION
¾Do not use the 360°View Monitor
under any of the following
conditions.
¾Icy or snow-covered roads.
¾Tyre chains or a temporary spare
tyre is installed.
¾The front or rear doors are not fully
closed.
¾The vehicle is on a road incline.
¾The door mirrors are retracted.
¾Do not hit the front/rear camera,
front bumper, liftgate, and door
mirrors forcefully. The camera
position or installation angle may
shift.
¾The cameras are waterproof. Do not
disassemble, modify, or remove a
camera.
¾The camera cover is made of hard
plastic, therefore do not apply oil
film remover, organic solvents, wax,
or coating agents. If any such agent
gets on the camera cover, wipe it off
using a soft cloth immediately.
¾Do not rub the camera lens
forcefully, or clean it with an abrasive
or hard brush. Otherwise, it could
scratch the camera lens and
negatively affect the images.
