▼Replacing a Wheel
WARNING
Always use wheels of the correct size
on your vehicle:
Using a wrong-sized wheel is
dangerous. Braking and handling could
be affected, leading to loss of control
and an accident.
CAUTION
A wrong-sized wheel may adversely
affect:

Tire fit
 Wheel and bearing life
 Ground clearance
 Snow-chain clearance
 Speedometer calibration
 Headlight aim
 Bumper height
 Tire Pressure Monitoring System
NOTE
When replacing a wheel, make sure
the new one is the same as the
original factory wheel in diameter,
rim width, and offset (inset/outset).
For details, contact an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.

Proper tire balancing provides the best
riding comfort and helps reduce tread
wear. Out-of-balance tires can cause
vibration and uneven wear, such as
cupping and flat spots.

▼Replacing Light Bulbs
All the light bulbs are the LED type.
The LED bulb cannot be replaced as a
single unit because it is an integrated
unit.
The LED bulb has to be replaced with
the unit. If a replacement is necessary,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Adjusting the Headlight Aim
If the headlight cannot be adjusted
using procedure below, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
1. Make sure the vehicle has a full
tank of gasoline and the area
around the headlight is not
deformed.
2. Park the vehicle on level ground.
3. Sit in the driver's seat.
4. Bounce the vehicle several times.
5. Using a Phillips-head screw-driver,
turn bolt A in either direction.
Remember the turning direction
and the number of turns.
6. Turn bolt B the same number of turns and in the same direction as
step 5.

1. Adjustment bolt A
2. Adjustment bolt B
Fuses
▼ Fuses
Your vehicle's electrical system is
protected by fuses.

If any lights, accessories, or controls do
not work, inspect the appropriate
circuit protector. If a fuse has blown,
the inside element will be melted.

If the same fuse
blows again, avoid
using that system and consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
▼ Fuse Replacement
Replacing the fuses on the vehicle's
left side
If the electrical system does not work,
first inspect the fuses on the vehicle's
left side.

block located in the engine
compartment.
4. Inspect the fuse and replace it if it is
blown.
1. Normal
2. Blown

5. Insert a new fuse of the same
amperage rating, and make sure it
fits tightly. If it does not
fit tightly,
have an expert install it. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
If you have no spare fuses, borrow
one of the same rating from a
circuit not essential to vehicle
operation, such as the audio or
accessory socket circuit.
CAUTION
Always replace a fuse with a
genuine Mazda fuse or equivalent
of the same rating. Otherwise, you
may damage the electric system.
6. Reinstall the cover and make sure that it is securely installed.
Replacing the fuses under the hood
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the fuses
in the cabin are normal, inspect the
fuse block under the hood.
If a fuse is blown, it must be replaced.
Follow these steps:

1. Make sure the ignition is switched
off, and other switches are
off.
2. Remove the fuse block cover.
3. If any fuse but the MAIN fuse is blown, replace it with a new one of
the same amperage rating .
1. Normal

▼Aluminum Wheel Maintenance
A protective coating is provided over
the aluminum wheels. Special care is
needed to protect this coating.
CAUTION
Do not use any detergent other than
mild detergent. Before using any
detergent, verify the ingredients.
Otherwise, the product could discolor
or stain the aluminum wheels.
NOTE
Do not use a wire brush or any
abrasive cleaner, polishing
compound, or solvent on aluminum
wheels. They may damage the
coating.
Always use a sponge or soft cloth to
clean the wheels.
Rinse the wheels thoroughly with
lukewarm or cold water. Also, be
sure to clean the wheels after driving
on dusty or salted roads to help
prevent corrosion.
Avoid washing your vehicle in an
automatic car wash that uses
high-speed or hard brushes.
(20-inch wheel vehicle)
If your aluminum wheels lose luster,
apply wax which contains no
polishing powder.
▼ Plastic Part Maintenance
When cleaning the plastic lenses of
the lights, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, rectified spirit, paint,
thinner, highly acidic detergents, or
strongly alkaline detergents.
Otherwise, these chemical agents
can discolor or damage the surfaces
resulting in a significant loss in
functionality. If plastic parts become
inadvertently exposed to any of these
chemical agents, flush with water
immediately.
If plastic parts such as the bumpers
become inadvertently exposed to
chemical agents or fluids such as
gasoline, oil, engine coolant, or
battery fluid, it could cause
discoloration, staining, or paint
peeling. Wipe off any such chemical
agents or fluids using a soft cloth
immediately.
High water temperature and high
water pressure car washers are
available depending on the type of
high pressure car washer device. If
the car washer nozzle is put too
close to the vehicle or aimed at one
area for an extended period of time,
it could deform plastic parts or
damage the paint.
Do not use wax containing
compounds (polish). Otherwise, it
could result in paint damage.
In addition, do not use an electrical
or air tool to apply wax. Otherwise,
the frictional heat generated could
result in deformation of plastic parts
or paint damage.
