Warnings and Cautionsfor Using the Emission Control System
WARNING
Never park over or near anything
flammable.
Parking over or near anything
flammable, such as dry grass, is
dangerous. Even with the engine
turned off, the exhaust system remains
very hot after normal use and could
ignite anything flammable. A resulting
fire could cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
Ignoring the following precautions
could cause lead to accumulate on the
catalyst inside the converter or cause
the converter to get very hot. Either
condition will dama
ge the converter
and cause poor performance.
USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL.
Do not drive your Mazda with any
sign of engine malfunction.
Do not coast if the vehicle power is
switched OFF.
Do not descend steep grades in gear
if the vehicle power is switched OFF.
Do not operate the engine at high
idle for more than 2 minutes.
Do not tamper with the emission
control system. All inspections and
adjustments must be made by a
qualified technician.
Do not push-start or pull-start this
vehicle.
Warnings and Cautions
for Engine Exhaust
(Carbon monoxide)
WARNING
Do not drive your vehicle if you smell
exhaust gas inside the vehicle:
Engine exhaust gas is dangerous. This
gas contains carbon monoxide (CO),
which is colorless, odorless, and
poisonous. When inhaled, it can cause
loss of consciousness and death. If you
smell exhaust gas inside the vehicle,
keep all windows fully open and
contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer
immediately.
Do not run the engine when inside an
enclosed area:
Running the engine inside an enclosed
area, such as a garage, is dangerous.
Exhaust gas, which contains poisonous
carbon monoxide, could easily enter
the cabin. Loss of consciousness or
even death could occur.

heating or cooling system to draw
fresh air when idling the engine:
Exhaust gas is dangerous. When the
vehicle is stopped with the windows
closed and the engine running for a
long time even in an open area,
exhaust gas, which contains poisonous
carbon monoxide, could enter the
cabin. Loss of consciousness or even
death could occur.

*
The Secondary Collision Reduction
reduces secondary damage by
decelerating the vehicle when it is
damaged in a collision to the extent
that the airbags are deployed while
driving.
If a collision occurs to the extent that
the airbags are deployed while driving,
the hazard warning lights flash to alert
surrounding vehicles and the brakes
are controlled to reduce damage in the
event of a collision with an obstruction
or other object.
Warnings and Cautions
