Add-On Non-GenuinePa r t s a n d A cc e s s o r i e s
▼ Add-On Non-Genuine Parts and
Accessories
Non-genuine parts and accessories for
Mazda vehicles can be found in stores.
These may
fit your vehicle, but they are
not approved by Mazda for use with
Mazda vehicles. When you install
non-genuine parts or accessories, they
could affect your vehicle's
performance or safety systems; the
Mazda warranty doesn't cover this.
Before you install any non-genuine
parts or accessories, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
WARNING
Always consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer before you install non-genuine
parts or accessories:
Improperly designed parts or
accessories could seriously affect your
vehicle's performance or safety
systems. This could cause you to have
an accident or increase your chances of
injuries in an accident.
Be very careful in choosing and
installing add-on electrical
equipment, such as mobile
telephones, two-way radios, stereo
systems, and car alarm systems:
Incorrectly choosing or installing
improper add-on equipment or
choosing an improper installer is
dangerous. Essential systems could be
damaged, causing engine stalling,
air-bag (SRS) activation,
ABS/TCS/DSC inactivation, or a fire in
the vehicle.
Mazda assumes no responsibility for
death, injury, or expenses that may
result from the installation of add-on
non-genuine parts or accessories.

WARNING
Never Exceed Axle Weight Rating
Limits:
Exceeding the Safety Certification
Label axle weight rating limits is
dangerous and could result in death or
serious injury as a result of substandard
vehicle handling, performance, engine,
transmission and/or structural
damage, serious damage to the
vehicle, or loss of control.
Always keep the vehicle within the axle
weight rating limits.
GCW
GCW (Gross Combination Weight) is
the weight of the loaded vehicle
(GVW).
GCWR (Gross Combination Weight
Rating) is the maximum allowable
weight of the vehicle - including all
cargo and passengers - that the vehicle
can handle without risking damage.
The GCW must never exceed the
GCWR.
WARNING
Never Exceed GVWR or GAWR
Specifications:
Exceeding the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label is
dangerous. Exceeding any vehicle
rating limitation could result in a
serious accident, injury, or damage to
the vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with
lower load carrying capacities than the
originals because they may lower the
vehicle's GVWR and GAWR
limitations. Replacement tires with a
higher limit than th e originals do not
increase the GVWR and GAWR
limitations.
Never exceed the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label.
