Rocking the Vehicle
▼Rocking the Vehicle
WARNING
Do not spin the wheels at more than
56 km/h (35 mph), 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 tire could overheat and
explode. This could cause serious
injuries.
CAUTION
Too much rocking may cause
transmission failure, and tire 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 tire
chains, window scraper,
flares, a small
shovel, jumper cables, and a small bag
of sand or salt.
Ask an Authorized Mazda Dealer to
check the following:
Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in
the radiator.
Refer to Engine Coolant on page
6-19.
Inspect the battery and its cables.
Cold reduces battery capacity.
Use an engine oil appropriate for the
lowest ambient temperatures that
the vehicle will be driven in (page
6-17).
Inspect the ignition system for
damage and loose connections.
Use washer fluid made with
antifreeze ―but do not use engine
coolant antifreeze for washer fluid
(page 6-21).
NOTE
Remove snow before driving. Snow
left on the windshield is dangerous
as it could obstruct vision.
Do not apply excessive force to a
window scraper when removing ice
or frozen snow on the mirror glass
and windshield.
Never use warm or hot water for
removing snow or ice from windows
and mirrors as it could result in the
glass cracking.

Cylinder Deact ivat ion
▼Cylinder Deact ivat ion
The cylinder deactivation is a function
designed to reduce fuel consumption
and improve fuel economy by
deactivating 2 out of the 4 cylinders
while driving. The function constantly
determines which is better for driving;
4 cylinders or 2 cylinders, regardless of
the driver's operations, and it performs
the switching automatically.
When the cylinder deactivation
function does not operate
The cylinder deactivation function
does not operate under the following
conditions.
The selector lever is in the P, N, or R
position (automatic transmission), or
1st gear (manual transmission).
The engine oil temperature or engine
coolant temperature is low.

The vehicle is driven on roads with
lane lines other than white (yellow)
lines, such as an expressway.
Do not get out of the vehicle while
the stop hold control is operating.
(Automatic transmission vehicle)
Getting out of the vehicle while the
stop hold control is operating is
dangerous as the vehicle may move
unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Before getting out of the vehicle,
switch the TJA off, apply the parking
brake, and then shift the selector lever
to the P position.
CAUTION
Turn the system off when the vehicle is
running on a chassis roller.
Heed the following cautions so that
the TJA can operate normally.
Turn the system off when the vehicle
is running on a chassis roller.
Do not modify the vehicle's
suspensions.
Always use wheels of the specified
size for the front and rear wheels.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
for tire replacement.
NOTE
The headway control does not detect
the following as physical objects.
Vehicles approaching in the
opposite direction
Pe d e s t r i a n sStationary objects (stopped
vehicles, obstructions)
If a vehicle ahead is traveling at an
extremely low speed, the system may
not detect it correctly.
If there is a structure on the road or
an object (such as a monorail) at a
low height off the ground in front of
the vehicle, the system may operate.
Therefore, do not use the TJA.
Do not use the TJA under conditions
in which close proximity warnings
are frequently activated.
If it is necessary to accelerate for a
lane change or the vehicle ahead
brakes suddenly causing you to close
in on the vehicle rapidly, accelerate
using the accelerator pedal or
decelerate using the brake pedal
depending on the conditions.
While the TJA is in use, any intended
engine braking does not occur even
if you shift the shift lever (manual
transmission) or the selector lever
(automatic transmission). If
deceleration is required, lower the
vehicle speed setting or depress the
brake pedal.
While braking by the TJA control is
operating , you might hear an
operation sound, however, this does
not indicate a problem.
The brake lights turn on while
braking by the TJA control is
operating , however, they may not
turn on while the vehicle is on a
down slope at the set vehicle speed
or traveling at a constant speed and
following a vehicle ahead.
Under the following conditions, the
TJA may not be able to detect white
(yellow) lines or vehicles ahead
correctly and the TJA may not
operate normally.
The forward sensing camera (FSC)
cannot recognize the area in front
of the vehicle due to soiling or fog.

1. Wipe the soiled area with a softcloth soaked in a mild detergent
(approx. 5%) diluted with water.
2. Wipe off the remaining detergent using a cloth soaked in clean water
and wrung out well.
▼Active Driving Display
Maintenance*
The dust-proof sheet has a coating.
When cleaning , do not use a hard or
rough-surface cloth, or cleaning
detergent. In addition, if a chemical
solvent gets on the active driving
display, wipe it off immediately. The
dust-proof sheet could be damaged
and the surface coating could be
scratched. Use a fine, soft cloth such as
those used for cleaning eyeglasses.
NOTE
Use of compressed air when cleaning
the dust-proof sheet is recommended.
▼Panel Maintenance
If a panel becomes soiled, wipe it off
with a soft cloth soaked in clean water
and thoroughly wrung out.
If some areas require further cleaning,
use the following procedure:
1. Wipe the soiled area with a soft
cloth soaked in a mild detergent
(approx. 5 %) diluted with water.
2. Wipe off the remaining detergent using a cloth soaked in clean water
and wrung out well.
NOTE
Be particularly careful when cleaning
shiny surface panels and metallic parts
such as plating as they can be
scratched easily.
▼Cleaning the Window Interiors
If the windows become covered with
an oily, greasy, or waxy film, clean
them with glass cleaner. Follow the
directions on the container.
CAUTION
Do not scrape or scratch the inside
of the window glass. It could
damage the thermal filaments and
the antenna lines.
When washing the inside of the
window glass, use a soft cloth
dampened in lukewarm water, gently
wiping the thermal filaments and the
antenna lines.
Use of glass cleaning products could
damage the thermal filaments and
the antenna lines.
▼ Cleaning the Floor Mats
Rubber floor mats should be cleaned
with mild soap and water only.
WARNING
Do not use rubber cleaners, such as
tire cleaner or tire shine, when
cleaning rubber
floor mats:
Cleaning the rubber floor mats with
rubber cleaning products makes the
floor mats slippery.
This may cause an accident when
depressing the accelerator, brake, or
clutch (Manual transmission) pedal or
when getting in or out of the vehicle.
After removing the floor mats for
cleaning, always reinstall them securely
(page 3-51).
