Warnings and Cautions
for Using the Emergency Lane Keeping (ELK)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the ELK.
The ELK has limitations. Do not rely
completely on the system and always
stay on course using the steering
wheel.
The ELK is not an automated driving
system. Over reliance on the system
could lead to an accident.
The detection range of the camera
and sensors is limited. If the steering
wheel operation assist is operated
without detecting a two-wheeled
vehicle near the detecting vehicle, it
could result in an accident.
Do not use the ELK under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident.
The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
Tires other than the specified size are
used, such as when tire chains or
temporary spare tires are used.
(Blind Spot Assist)
The vehicle is driven on roads other
than expressways and highways.
(Blind Spot Assist and Head-on
traffic avoidance assist)
The rear bumper around a rear side
radar sensor is deformed.

may not be displayed normally.
Refer to Cameras on page 5-137.
Do not use the 360° view monitor in th e following locations or conditions.
Bumpy roads
The vehicle is on a road incline.
Icy or snow-covered roads
Tire chains or a temporary spare tire is installed.
The doors are not fully closed.
The outside mirrors are retracted.

When the center display is cold, images may leave trails or the display might be
darker than usual, making it difficult to check the vehicle surroundings. Always
confirm the safety around the vehicle visually when driving.
Recognizing images at night may be
difficult because there are no lights in the
shooting range of the side camera. Always confirm the safety around the vehicle
visually when driving.
The method for parking/stopping the vehicle using the 360° View Monitor
differs
depending on the road conditions and ve hicle conditions. In addition, when and
how much you turn the steering wheel will differ depending on the situation,
therefore always check the vehicle surroundings directly with your eyes while using
the system.

Snow Tires
WARNING
Use only the same size and type tires
(snow, radial, or non-radial) on all 4
wheels:
Using tires different in size or type is
dangerous. Your vehicle's handling
could be greatly affected and result in
an accident.
CAUTION
Check local regulations before using
studded tires.
Use snow tires on all 4 wheels
Do not go faster than 120 km/h (75
mph) while driving with snow tires.
When installing winter tires, use tires of
the specified size and adjust the air
pressure of all the tires to the specified
value. (page 10-71).
The vehicle is originally equipped with
all season radials designed to be used
all year around. In some extreme
climates you may find it necessary to
replace them with snow tires during
the winter months to further improve
traction on snow and ice covered
roads.
Tire Chains
Check local regulations before using
tire chains.
CAUTION
Chains may aff ect handling.
Do not go faster than 50 km/h (30
mph) or the chain manufacturer's
recommended limit, whichever is
lower.
Drive carefully and avoid bumps,
holes, and sharp turns.
Avoid locked-wheel braking.
Do not use chains on a temporary
spare tire; it may result in damage to
the vehicle and to the tire.
Do not use chains on roads that are
free of snow or ice. The tires and
chains could be damaged.
Chains may scratch or chip
aluminum wheels.
NOTE
The tire pressure monitoring system
may not function correctly when using
tire chains.
Install the chains on the rear tires only.
Do not use chains on the front tires.
Please consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
Installing the chains
1. Secure the chains on the rear tires
as tightly as possible. Always follow
the chain manufacturer's
instructions.
2. Retighten the chains after driving 1/2 ―1 km (1/4 ―1/2 mile).

Warnings and Cautionsfor Using the Towing
WARNING
Always keep tow loads within
specified limits as indicated in the
Trailer Towing-Load Table:
Attempting to tow loads greater than
those specified is dangerous as it may
cause serious handling and
performance problems that could
result in personal injury or vehicle
damage, or both.
Load your trailer with the weight
about 60 % toward the front and
40 % toward the rear:
Loading the trailer with more weight in
the rear than in the front is dangerous.
Doing so could cause you to lose
control. The trailer tongue load must
be 10 % ―15 % of the total trailer load
(sum of the weights of the trailer and
cargo).
Always have the total trailer weight
and tongue load determined prior to
departure:
Attempting to tow loads without
determining the total trailer weight and
tongue load is dangerous. Trailer sway
from crosswinds, rough roads or other
causes could result in loss of control
and a serious accident.
Always make sure the trailer hitch is
securely attached before departure:
An unsecured trailer hitch is dangerous
as it causes greater trailer sway from
crosswinds, rough roads or other
causes, resulting in loss of control and
a serious accident.
Examine all trailer-hitch mounting
bolts regularly and tighten any that are
loose. If the hitch is removed, seal any
open mounting holes to prevent
exhaust, dust, water, dirt and other
foreign elements from filtering in,
possibly endangering personal safety
and damaging your vehicle.
Do not install a hitch that stiffens the
bumper as it will reduce the bumper's
performance.
Make sure there are no exhaust gas
leaks into the passenger compartment
if any mounting bolts are connected
to the body:
Modifying your vehicle exhaust system
is dangerous. Exhaust gas entering the
vehicle could cause loss of
consciousness or even death.
When mounting the trailer hitch, make
no modifications to the vehicle exhaust
system.
Never use the temporary spare tire
when towing:
Using the temporary spare tire on your
vehicle when towing a trailer is
dangerous as it could result in tire
failure, loss of control, and injury to
vehicle occupants.
Make sure the safety chain is securely
attached to both the trailer and the
vehicle prior to departure:
Towing a trailer without using a safety
chain securely attached to both the
trailer and the vehicle is dangerous. If
damage occurs to the coupling unit or
hitch ball, the trailer could wander into
another lane and cause a collision.

Spare Tire
The temporary spare tire is lighter and
smaller than a conventional tire, and is
designed only for emergency use and
should be used only for VERY short
periods. Temporary spare tires should
NEVER be used for long drives or
extended periods.
WARNING
Do not install the temporary spare tire
on the rear wheels (driving wheels).
Driving with the temporary spare tire
on one of the rear driving wheels is
dangerous. Handling will be affected.
You could lose control of the vehicle,
especially on ice or snow bound roads,
and have an accident. Move a regular
tire to the rear wheel and install the
temporary spare tire to the front.
CAUTION
When using the temporary spare tire,
driving stability may decrease
compared to when using only the
conventional tire. Drive carefully.
To avoid damage to the temporary
spare tire or to the vehicle, observe
the following precautions:
Do not exceed 80 km/h (50 mph).
Avoid driving over obstacles. Also,
do not drive through an automatic
car wash. This tire's diameter is
smaller than a conventional tire, so
the ground clearance is reduced.
Do not use a tire chain on this tire
because it will not fit properly.
Do not use your temporary spare
tire on any other vehicle, it has
been designed only for your
Mazda.
Use only one temporary spare tire
on your vehicle at the same time.
To remove the spare tire
1. Remove the luggage board.
2. Remove the cargo sub compartment.
3. (Vehicles with sub-woofer)
Uncouple the sub-woofer
connector.
