Seat Belt Precautions
▼Seat Belt Precautions
Seat belts help to decrease the
possibility of severe injury during
accidents and sudden stops. Mazda
recommends that the driver and all
passengers always wear seat belts.
All the seats have lap/shoulder belts.
These belts also have retractors with
inertia locks that keep them out of the
way when not in use. The locks allow
the belts to remain comfortable on
users, but they will lock in position
during a collision.
WARNING
Always wear your seat belt and make
sure all occupants are properly
restrained:
Not wearing a seat belt is extremely
dangerous. During a collision,
occupants not wearing seat belts could
hit someone or things inside the
vehicle or even be thrown out of the
vehicle. They could be seriously injured
or even killed. In the same collision,
occupants wearing seat belts would be
much safer.
Do not wear twisted seat belts:
Twisted seat belts are dangerous. In a
collision, the full width of the belt is
not available to absorb the impact.
This puts more force on the bones
beneath the belt, which could cause
serious injury or death. So, if your seat
belt is twisted, you must straighten the
seat belt to remove any twists and to
allow the full width of the belt to be
used.
Never use one seat belt on more than
one person at a time:
Using one seat belt for more than one
person at a time is dangerous. A seat
belt used in this way cannot spread the
impact forces properly and the two
passengers could be crushed together
and seriously injured or even killed.
Never use one belt for more than one
person at a time and always operate
the vehicle with each occupant
properly restrained.
Do not operate a vehicle with a
damaged seat belt:
Using a damaged seat belt is
dangerous. An accident could damage
the belt webbing of the seat belt in
use. A damaged seat belt cannot
provide adequate protection in a
collision. Have an expert repairer (we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer) inspect all seat belt systems
in use during an accident before they
are used again.
Have your seat belts changed
immediately if the pretensioner or
load limiter has been expended:
Always have an expert repairer (we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer) immediately inspect the seat
belt pretensioners and air bags after
any collision. Like the air bags, the seat
belt pretensioners and load limiters
will only function once and must be
replaced after any collision that caused
them to deploy. If the seat belt
pretensioners and load limiters are not
replaced, the risk of injury in a collision
will increase.

Auxiliary key
There is a removable auxiliary key
inside the transmitter.

Removing the auxiliary key
1. Remove the lower cover while
pressing the knob in the direction
of the arrow.
2. Remove the auxiliary key.
Installing the auxiliary key
1. Install the auxiliary key as the
illustration.
2. Insert the tabs of the lower cover
into the slots of the transmitter and
install the lower cover.

Key code number plate
A code number is stamped on the
plate attached to the key set; detach
this plate and store it in a safe place
(not in the vehicle) for use if you need
to make a replacement key (auxiliary
key).
Also write down the code number and
keep it in a separate safe and
convenient place, but not in the
vehicle.
If your key (auxiliary key) is lost, consult
an expert repairer (we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer) and have
your code number ready.

WARNING
Never stop the engine when going
down a hill:
Stopping the engine when going down
a hill is dangerous. This causes the loss
of power steering and power brake
control, and may cause damage to the
drivetrain. Any loss of steering or
braking control could cause an
accident.
Hazardous Driving
▼Hazardous Driving
WARNING
Be extremely careful if it is necessary
to downshift on slippery surfaces:
Downshifting into lower gear while
driving on slippery surfaces is
dangerous. The sudden change in tyre
speed could cause the tyres to skid.
This could lead to loss of vehicle
control and an accident.
When driving on ice or in water, snow,
mud, sand, or similar hazards:
xBe cautious and allow extra distance
for braking.
xAvoid sudden braking and sudden
manoeuvring.
xDo not pump the brakes. Continue
to press down on the brake pedal.
Refer to Antilock Brake System (ABS)
on page 4-80.
xIf you get stuck, select a lower gear
and accelerate slowly. Do not spin
the front wheels.
xFor more traction in starting on
slippery surfaces such as ice or
packed snow, use sand, rock salt,
chains, carpeting, or other nonslip
material under the front wheels.
NOTE
Use snow chains only on the front
wheels.

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.

xThere is a problem with the
AUTOHOLD function.Emergency Stop Signal
System
▼Emergency Stop Signal System
If you apply the brakes suddenly while
driving at a speed of about 55 km/h
(34 mph) or faster, the emergency stop
signal system automatically and rapidly
flashes all the direction indicator lights
to caution drivers behind your vehicle
of the sudden braking situation.
NOTE
xFlashing
When you bring your vehicle to a
complete stop while all the direction
indicator lights are flashing rapidly,
the rapid
flashing of all the direction
indicator lights changes back to the
normal flashing pattern. The
direction indicator lights turn off
when you release your foot from the
brake pedal.
xOperation
xWhen the ABS operates, the
emergency stop signal system is
more likely to operate. Therefore, if
the brake pedal is depressed on a
slippery road, all of the direction
indicator lights may
flash.
xThe emergency stop signal system
does not operate when the hazard
warning light switch is pressed.

Antilock Brake System
(ABS)
▼Antilock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS control unit continuously
monitors the speed of each wheel. If
one wheel is about to lock up, the ABS
responds by automatically releasing
and reapplying that wheel's brake.

The driver will feel a slight vibration in
the brake pedal and may hear a
chattering noise from the brake system.
This is normal ABS system operation.
Continue to depress the brake pedal
without pumping the brakes.

The warning light turns on when the
system has a malfunction.
Refer to ABS Warning Indication/
Warning Light on page 7-52.
WARNING
Do not rely on ABS as a substitute for
safe driving:
The ABS cannot compensate for unsafe
and reckless driving, excessive speed,
tailgating (following another vehicle
too closely), driving on ice and snow,
and hydroplaning (reduced tyre friction
and road contact because of water on
the road surface). You can still have an
accident.
NOTE
xBraking distances may be longer on
loose surfaces (snow or gravel, for
example) which usually have a hard
foundation. A vehicle with a normal
braking system may require less
distance to stop under these
conditions because the tyres will
build up a wedge of surface layer
when the wheels skid.
xThe sound of the ABS operating may
be heard when starting the engine or
immediately after starting the
vehicle, however, it does not indicate
a malfunction.
