that uses brushes that are dirty or too sti ff.
Cleansers or wax containing
abrasives are used.
NOTE
Mazda is not responsible for
scratches caused by automatic car
washes or improper washing.
Scratches are more noticeable on
vehicles with darker paint finishes.
To minimize scratches on the vehicle's
paint finish:
Rinse o ff any dirt or other foreign
matter using lukewarm or cold water
before washing.
Use plenty of lukewarm or cold
water and a soft cloth when washing
the vehicle. Do not use a nylon cloth.
Rub gently when washing or drying
the vehicle.
Take your vehicle only to a car wash
that keeps its brushes well
maintained.
Do not use abrasive cleansers or wax
that contain abrasives.

WARNING
Do not tow a trailer with this vehicle:
Towing a trailer with this vehicle is
dangerous because it has not been
designed to tow a trailer and doing so
will
aff ect the drive system which could
result in vehicle damage.
This section will guide you in the
proper loading of your vehicle, to keep
your loaded vehicle weight within its
design rating capability. Properly
loading your vehicle will provide
maximum return of vehicle design
performance. Before loading your
vehicle, familiarize yourself with the
following terms for determining your
vehicle's weight ratings, from the
vehicle's Safety Certi fication Label and
Tire and Load Information Label:
WARNING
Overloaded Vehicle:
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous.
The results of overloading can have
serious consequences in terms of
passenger safety. Too much weight on
a vehicle's suspension system can
cause spring or shock absorber failure,
brake failure, handling or steering
problems, irregular tire wear, tire
failure or other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to
drive and control. It also increases the
distance required for stopping. In cases
of serious overloading, brakes can fail
completely, particularly on steep
grades. The load a tire will carry safely
is a combination of the size of the tire,
its load range, and corresponding
in flation pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always
observe the vehicle's weight ratings
from the vehicle's Safety Certi fication
and Tire and Load Information labels.
Base Curb Weight is the weight of the
vehicle including a full tank of fuel
and all standard equipment. It does
not include passengers, cargo, or
optional equipment.

Vehicle Curb Weight is the weight of
your new vehicle when you picked it
up from your dealer plus any
aftermarket equipment.
