Warnings and Cautions
For Using the Floor Mat
We recommend the use of Genuine
Mazda floor mats.
WARNING
Make sure the floor mats are secured
with the grommets to prevent them
from bunching up under the foot
pedals (Driver's side).
Using a
floor mat that is not secured is
dangerous as it will interfere with the
accelerator and brake pedal operation
(driver's side), which could result in an
accident.
Only use a floor mat which conforms
to the shape of the floor on the driver's
side and make sure it is oriented
correctly.
Secure the floor mat using the
grommets.
There are various ways to secure floor
mats depending on the type used,
therefore secure the mat according to
the type.
After installing the floor mat, make
sure that it does not slide from side to
side or back and forth, and that there
is sufficient clearance with the
accelerator and brake pedals on the
driver's side.
After removing the floor mat for
cleaning or some other reason, always
securely reinstall it while paying
attention to the precautions just
mentioned.
Do not install two floor mats, one on
top of the other, on the driver's side.
Installing two floor mats, one on top of
the other, on the driver's side is
dangerous as the retention pins can
only keep one floor mat from sliding
forward.
Loose floor mat(s) will interfere with
the foot pedals and could result in an
accident.
If using an all-weather mat for winter
use always remove the original floor
mat.

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.

Having the Vehicle Towed
We recommend that towing be done
only by an Authorized Mazda Dealer
or a commercial tow-truck service.

Proper lifting and towing are necessary
to prevent damage to the vehicle.
Particularly when towing an AWD
vehicle, where all the wheels are
connected to the drive train, proper
transporting of the vehicle is absolutely
essential to avoid damaging the drive
system. Government and local laws
must be followed.
WARNING
Always tow an AWD vehicle with all
four wheels off the ground.
Towing an AWD vehicle with either the
front or rear wheels on the ground is
dangerous as the drive train could be
damaged, or the vehicle could trail
away from the tow truck and cause an
accident. If the drive train has been
damaged, transport the vehicle on a
flatbed truck.
CAUTION
Do not tow the vehicle pointed
forkward with driving wheels on the
ground. This may cause internal
damage to the transmission.
Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. This could damage your
vehicle. Use wheel-lift or flatbed
equipment.
If the parking brake cannot be
released when towing the vehicle,
transport the vehicle with all front
and rear wheels raised
off the ground
as shown in the figure. If the vehicle
is towed without raising the wheels off the ground, the brake system
could be damaged.

Taking Action with Depleted Lead-acid Battery
The lead-acid battery might be depleted if the following conditions occur.
The hybrid system does not start.The selector lever cannot be shifted to a position other than P.The horn sound is weak or it does not sound.The brightness of the lights is extremely low.
Using commercially available booster cables, connect the lead-acid battery of the
booster vehicle’s battery to the lead-acid battery of your vehicle and start the hybrid
system.
Jump-starting is dangerous if done incorr ectly. Therefore, follow the procedure
carefully. If you feel unsure about jump-s tarting , we strongly recommend that you
have a competent service technician do the work.
WARNING
Read the following precautions carefully before using the lead-acid
battery or inspecting to ensure safe and correct handling.
Always wear eye protection when working near the lead-acid battery.
Working without eye protection is dangerous. Lead-acid battery fluid contains
SULFURIC ACID which could cause blindne ss if splashed into your eyes. Also,
hydrogen gas produced during normal lead-acid battery operation, could ignite and
cause the lead-acid battery to explode.
Wear eye protection and protective gloves to prevent contact with
lead-acid battery fluid.
Spilled lead-acid battery fluid is dangerous.
Lead-acid battery fluid contains SULFURIC ACID which could cause serious injuries if
it gets in eyes, or on the skin or clothing. If this happens, immediately flush your eyes
with water for 15 minutes or wash your skin thoroughly and get medical attention.
Always keep lead-acid batteries out of the reach of children.
Allowing children to play near lead-acid batteries is dangerous. Lead-acid battery
