2022 MAZDA MODEL MX-30 EV warning light

CAUTION
If your Mazda is damaged and needs
metal parts repaired or replaced, make
sure the body shop applies
anti-corrosion materials to all parts,
both repaired and new. This will
prevent them from rusting.
▼Bright-Metal Maintenance
Use tar remover to remove road tar
and insects. Never do this with a
knife or similar tool.
To prevent corrosion on bright-metal
surfaces, apply wax or chrome
preservative and rub it to a high
luster.
During cold weather or in coastal
areas, cover bright-metal parts with a
coating of wax or preservative
heavier than usual. It would also help
to coat them with noncorrosive
petroleum jelly or some other
protective compound.
CAUTION
Do not use steel wool, abrasive
cleaners, or strong detergents
containing highly alkaline or caustic
agents on chrome-plated or anodized
aluminum parts. This may result in
damage to the protective coating and
cause discoloration or paint
deterioration.
▼Underbody Maintenance
Road chemicals and salt used for ice
and snow removal and solvents used
for dust control may collect on the
underbody. If not removed, they will
speed up rusting and deterioration of
such underbody parts as frame and
fl
oor pan, even though these parts may
be coated with anti-corrosive material.

Thoroughly flush the underbody and
wheel housings with lukewarm or cold
water at the end of each winter. Try
also to do this every month.

Pay special attention to these areas
because they easily hide mud and dirt.
It will do more harm than good to wet
down the road grime without
removing it.

The lower edges of doors, rocker
panels, and frame members have drain
holes that should not be clogged.
Water trapped there will cause rusting.
WARNING
Dry o ff 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
a ff ected.
▼ Camera and Lens Maintenance
CAUTION

The camera cover is made of hard
plastic, therefore do not apply oil
fi lm remover, organic solvents, wax,
or coating agents. If any such agent is
applied, wipe it using a soft cloth
immediately.

Interior Care
▼Interior Care
WARNING
Do not spray water into the vehicle
cabin:
Spraying water into the vehicle cabin is
dangerous as electrical devices such as
the audio and switches could get wet
resulting in a malfunction or vehicle
fire.
NOTE
Do not wipe the interior using
alcohol, chlorine bleach, or organic
solvents such as thinner, benzene,
and gasoline. Otherwise, it may
cause discoloration or stains.
Rubbing hard with a sti
ff brush or
cloth may cause damage.
If the vehicle interior becomes soiled
by any of the following, wipe it o ff
immediately using a soft cloth.
Leaving it uncleaned could cause
discoloration, stains, cracks, or peeling
of the coating , and it will make it hard
to wipe o ff later.
Beverage or fragranceGrease or oilSoiling
▼ Seat Belt Maintenance
1. Clean the soiled area by lightly
dabbing it with a soft cloth soaked
in a mild detergent (approx. 5%)
diluted with water.
2. Wipe o ff the remaining detergent
using a cloth soaked in clean water
and wrung out well.
3. Before retracting seat belts which have been pulled out for cleaning,
dry them o ff thoroughly and make
sure there is no remaining moisture
on them.
WARNING
If a seat belt appears frayed or has
abrasions, have it replaced by an
Authorized Mazda Dealer:
If a seat belt is used under such a
condition, it cannot function at its full
capacity which could result in serious
injury or death.
Use a mild detergent to remove
soiling from a seat belt:
If organic solvents are used for cleaning
the seat belts or they become stained
or bleached, there is the possibility of
them becoming weakened and as a
result, they may not function at their
full capacity which could cause serious
injury or death.
NOTE
Clean seat belts diligently if they get
dirty. Leaving them uncleaned will
make it
difficult to clean them later,
and it may a ffect the smooth retracting
of the seat belt.
▼ Vinyl Upholstery Maintenance
Remove dust and dirt from the vinyl
upholstery using a brush or vacuum.
Remove soiling from vinyl upholstery
using a leather and vinyl upholstery
cleaner.

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 o ff 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 and Cork Area Maintenance
If a panel or cork area becomes soiled,
gently wipe it o
ff with a soft cloth
soaked in clean water and thoroughly

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 o ff 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.
(Cork area)
Do not apply items with adhesive
properties to the cork area.
Otherwise, the cork could be
damaged.
▼ Glass and Mirror Maintenance
Use Mazda genuine glass cleaner to
remove oil
film from the glass or
mirror.
When cleaning the interior side of the
window glass, gently wipe it with a soft
cloth soaked in clean water and
thoroughly wrung out.
If there is oil film on the windshield,
headlight beams from on-coming
vehicles may re flect irregularly
especially on a rainy night, and your
front vision might be obstructed.
If an antenna or filament is printed on
the window glass, gently wipe along
the antenna or filament to clean that
area.
CAUTION
If some areas require further cleaning,
a glass cleaning agent can be used.
However, be careful of the following
points.
 Follow the instructions on the glass
cleaner container.
 Do not use a glass cleaning agent on
a window antenna and filaments,
and on a rearview mirror equipped
with the automatic glare prevention
function.
Using a glass cleaning agent may
damage the window antenna or
fi laments, and the automatic glare
prevention function may not operate
normally.
▼ 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
fl oor mats slippery.
