Do not adjust a mobile device or a similar product while driving the vehicle:
Adjusting a mobile device or a similar product while driving the vehicle is dangerous
as it could distract your attention from the vehicle operation which could lead to a
serious accident. Always adjust a mobile device or a similar product while the
vehicle is stopped.
CAUTION
For the purposes of safe driving , adjust the audio volume to a level that allows you
to hear sounds outside of the vehicle incl uding car horns and particularly emergency
vehicle sirens.
NOTE
Do not use Mazda Connect for a long time with the EV system stopped.
Otherwise, the lead-acid battery power could be depleted.
If a mobile phone or CB radio is used in or near the vehicle, it could cause noise to
occur from the audio system. However, this does not indicate a problem.
