Do not add any
fluid other than DEF to
the urea tank. If any fluid other than DEF
is added, it could cause a problem with
the SCR system or damage it. Do not
switch the ignition ON, and contact an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
When adding DEF, use a bottle with an
anti-spill nozzle. If a bottle without an
anti-spill nozzle or a commercial
dispenser at a gas station is used, it could
cause leakage or the DEF to spray out.
Do not
overfill the DEF. If DEF is added
unnecessarily, it could cause a problem
with the urea tank or damage it. Always
use a bottle with an auto-stop function
and stop adding fluid when the
auto-stop function operates.
NOTE
When adding DEF during low
temperatures (–11 ˚C (12 ˚F) or less),
move the vehicle to a warm location. If
the DEF starts to freeze, it may not flow
correctly and the correct amount may
not have been added. In addition, if the
fluid freezes in the urea tank, you may
not be able to tell if the correct amount
of fluid was added.
Replenishment of DEF by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer is recommended. If you
want to replenish the DEF yourself,
follow the replenishment procedure
below.
Replenishment Procedure
1. Check the remaining amount of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) on the
multi-information display.
(Instrument cluster (Type A))
Refer to Remaining Diesel Exhaust
Fluid (DEF) and Maximum Driving
Distance Display (SKYACTIV-D 2.2)
on page 4-23.
(Instrument cluster (Type B))
Refer to Remaining Diesel Exhaust
Fluid (DEF) and Maximum Driving
Distance Display (SKYACTIV-D 2.2)
on page 4-40.
5.7 L (1.5 US gal, 1.3 Imp gal) of DEF
or more needs to be added.
NOTE
The replenishment amount (reference)
according to the DEF level (%)
indication is as follows:
Percentage (%) indica ‐
tion for remaining amount Reference replenish‐
ment amount
*1
100 — 65 Replenishment unneces‐
sary
60 — 45 About 5.7 L (1.5 US gal,

40 — 25 About 7.6 L (2.0 US gal,
1.7 Imp gal)
20 — 0 About 9.5 L (2.5 US gal,

NOTE
If excessive force is applied when
pressing in the bottom of the bottle,
the bottle or the DEF filler port may
be damaged.
When the urea tank is full, stop
adding DEF because the flow from
the bottle slows down by the bottle's
auto-stop function. If you continue
adding DEF, the urea tank will
overfill.
9. Press in the bot tom of the bottle
straight and add DEF.
Push to add
Release to stop
10. Remove the bottle in the reverse order
