When foreign material such as mud is stuck around the camera.
When the camera lens reflects sunlight or headlight beams.
The surroundings are illuminated by vehicle lights, fluorescent lights, or LED lights
(display may flicker).
Extremely small dark or white dots appear on the screen (dots may flicker).
Image display may be delayed if the temperature around the camera is low.
▼Viewing the Display
Guide lines which indicate the width of the vehicle are display
ed on the screen as a
reference to the approximate width of the vehicle in comparison to the width of the parking
space you are about to back into.
Use this display view for parking your vehicle in a parking spa ce or garage.
a) Vehicle width guide lines
Guide lines serve as a reference to the approximate width of th e vehicle.
b) Distance guide lines These guide lines indicate the approximate distance to a point measured from the
vehicle's rear (from the end of the bumper).
The red line indicates the point about 0.5 m (19 in) from the r ear bumper.
The yellow lines indicate the points about 1.0 m (39 in) and 2. 0 m (78 in) from the rear
bumper.
▼ Rear View Monitor Operation
The operation of the rear view monitor when reversing the vehic
le varies depending on the
traffic, road, and vehicle conditions. The amount of steering a nd the timing also varies
depending on conditions, so conf irm the surrounding conditions directly with your eyes and
steer the vehicle in accordance with the conditions.
Be well aware of the above cautions prior to using the rear vie w monitor.
NOTE
Images displayed on the monitor from the rear view parking camera are reversed images
(mirror images).

1. Shift the selector lever to reverse (R) position to switch the display to the rear view
monitor display.
2. Confirming the surrounding conditions, reverse the vehicle.
3. After your vehicle b egins entering the parking space, continue backing up slowly so that
the distance between the vehicle w idth lines and the sides of the parking space on the
left and right are roughly equal.

(Vehicle condition)
4. Continue to adjust the steering wheel until the vehicle width guide lines are parallel to
the left and right sides of the parking space.

5. Once they are parallel, straighten the wheels and back your vehicle slowly into the
parking space. Continue checkin g the vehicle's surroundings and then stop the vehicle in
the best possible position. (If the parking space has division lines, check whether the
vehicle width guide lines are parallel to them.)

6. When the selector lever is shifted from reverse (R) position to another selector lever
position, the screen returns to the previous display.
NOTE
Because there may be a difference between the displayed image, such as indicated below,
and the actual conditions when parking, always verify the safety at the rear of the vehicle
and the surrounding area directly with your eyes.
In the image of the parking space (or garage) displayed on the screen, the back end and
distance guide lines may appear aligned in the monitor, but they may not actually be
aligned on the ground.

When parking in a space with a division line on only one side of the parking space, the
division line and the vehicle width guide line appear aligned in the monitor, but they may
not actually be aligned on the ground.
▼ Variance Between Actual Road C
onditions and Displayed Image
Some variance occurs between the actual road and the displayed road. Such variance in
distance perspective could lead to an accident. Note the follow ing conditions that may cause
a variance in distance perspective.
When the vehicle is tilted due to the weight of passengers and load
When the vehicle rear is lowered, the object displayed on the screen appears farther than the
actual distance.

▼Replacing a Wheel
WA R N I N G
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.

WA R N I N G
Keep your vehicle's tires properly inflated and not overloaded:
Driving with improperly inflated or overloaded tires is dangerous. Excessive speed,
underinflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure. The temperatur e grade for this tire is established for a tire
that is properly inflated and not overloaded.

These grades will be added to the sidewalls of passenger vehicl e tires over the next several
years according to a schedule established by the NHTSA and the tire manufacturers.

The grade of tires available as standard or optional equipment on Mazda vehicles may vary
with respect to grade.

ALL PASSENGER VEHICLE TIRES MUST CONFORM TO THESE GRADES AND TO
ALL OTHER FEDERAL TIRE-SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.
▼ UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADING
Quality grades can be found where applicable on the tire sidewa
ll between tread shoulder
and maximum section width.

Tire Labeling
Federal law requires tire manufacturers to place standardized information on the sidewall of
all tires. This inform ation identifies and describes the fundam ental characteristics of the tire
and also provides a tire identification number for safety standard certification and in case of
a recall.
▼ Information on Passenger Vehicle Tires
Please refer to the sample below.
1. TIN: U.S. DOT tire identification number
2. Passenger car tire
3. Nominal width of tire in millimeters
4. Ratio of height to width (aspect ratio)
5. Radial
6. Run-flat tire
7. Rim diameter code
8. Load index & speed symbol
9. Severe snow conditions
10. Tire ply composition and materials used
11. Max. load rating
12. Tread wear, traction and temperature grades

P215/65R15 95H is an example of a tire size and load index rating. Here is an explanation
of the various components of tha t tire size and load index rating. Note that the tire size and
load index rating may be different from the example.
P
Indicates a tire that may be ins talled on cars, SUVs, minivans and light trucks as designated
by the Tire and Rim Association (T&RA).
NOTE
If your tire size does not begin with a letter this may mean it is designated by either ETRTO
(European Tire and Rim Technical Organization) or JATMA (Japan Tire Manufacturing
Association).
215
“215” is the nominal width of the tire in millimeters. This thr ee-digit number gives the
width in millimeters of the tire from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. In general, the larger
the number, the wider the tire.
65
“65” is the aspect ratio. This two-digit number indicates the t ire's ratio of height to width.
R
“R” is the tire construction symbol. R indicates “Radial ply co nstruction”.
15
“15” is the wheel rim diameter in inches.
95
“95” is the Load Index. This two-or three-digit number indicate s how much weight each tire
can support.
H
“H” is the speed rating. The speed rating denotes the maximum s peed for which the use of
the tire is rated.
Letter Rating Speed Rating
Q9 9 m ph
R1 06 m ph
S 112 mph
T 118 mph
U1 24 m ph
