If swaying occurs, firmly grip the steering wheel and reduce speed immediately, but
gradually.
Steer straight ahead. If no extreme correction of steering or braking is made, the
combination of less speed and firm steering will result in stability.
Backing up
Backing a vehicle with a trailer requires practice and patience. Back slowly, and have
a helper outside at the rear of the trailer to reduce the risk of an accident.
To turn the trailer, place your hand at th e bottom of the steering wheel and turn it in
the direction you want the trailer to go. Make only slight movements to prevent
sharp or prolonged turning.
Ascending a hill
Shift into a lower gear to reduce the poss ibility of overloading or overheating the
engine, or both.
Descending a hill
Shift into a lower gear and use engine compression as a braking effect.
Pa r k i n g
Always make sure the tires of the trailer and the tow vehicle are blocked while
parked.
Apply the parking brake firmly and put the transmission in P.
Avoid parking on an incline, but if you must, follow these instructions:
1. Depress and hold down the brake pedal.
2. Have a helper put wheel blocks against the downhill side of all vehicle and trailer tires.
3. Then release the brake pedal slowly until the blocks bear the load.
If the grade is downhill, turn the steering wheel so that the front of the front
tires face the curb.
If it is uphill, face the rear of the front tires against the curb.
4. Firmly apply the parking brake.
5. Shift the transmission into P, and stop the engine.
To restart after parking on an incline:
1. With the transmission in P, start the engine. (Be sure to depress and hold the brake pedal.)
2. Shift into gear.
3. Release the parking brake (also the foot brake) and pull away from the wheel blocks. Stop; apply the parking brake and shift into P.
4. Have a helper retrieve the wheel blocks.
Maintenance
If you tow a trailer frequently, have your vehicle serviced as shown in Scheduled
Maintenance (page 9-4).

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
fluid could cause serious injuries if it gets in the eyes or on the skin.

Dealing with the Cause
If trouble arises while charging such as
not being able to charge the high
voltage battery, refer to the following
table. If the problem cannot be solved
even after checking the following table,
there may be a problem with the
vehicle or charger. Contact an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Charging is not possible.
CauseAction
The selector
lever is in a
position
other than P. Shift the selector lever to the P
position.
The high
voltage bat-
tery is al-
ready fully
charged. Charging is not performed when
the high voltage battery is al-
ready fully charged.
The high
voltage bat-
tery temper-
ature is ex-
tremely high
or low. Check the high voltage battery
temperature gauge in the instru-
ment cluster. If the high voltage
battery temperature gauge is in
the red or blue range, charging
may not be possible.
The
Lead-acid
battery is
depleted. If the instrument cluster does not
turn on even if the vehicle power
is switched ON, the Lead-acid
battery may be depleted. Charge
or replace the Lead-acid battery.
Normal charging is not possible.
Cause
Action
The outlet
has no pow-
er. Check if a ground-fault circuit in-
terrupter has operated or if a
power outage occurred. If the
power source has a timer func-
tion, electrical power may not be
supplied to the outlet until the
time set to supply power.
Cause
Action

Inspection and Servicing
Be careful not to hurt yourself when
inspecting your vehicle, replacing a
tire, or doing some kind of
maintenance such as changing the oil
and filter.
In particular, wear thick work gloves
such as cotton gloves when touching
areas that are difficult to see while
inspecting or working on your vehicle.
Doing inspections or procedures with
your bare hands could cause injury.
If you are unsure about any procedure
this manual describes, we strongly urge
you to have a reliable and qualified
service shop perform the work,
preferably an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
Factory-trained Mazda technicians and
genuine Mazda parts are best for your
vehicle. Without this expertise and the
parts that have been designed and
made especially for your Mazda,
inadequate, incomplete, and
insufficient servicing may result in
problems. This could lead to vehicle
damage or an accident and injuries.
For expert advice and quality service,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
To continue warranty eligibility and to
protect your investment, it is your
responsibility to properly maintain your
vehicle according to factory
recommended schedules outlined in
this manual. As part of this you must
keep your maintenance records,
receipts, repair orders and any other
documents as evidence this
maintenance was performed. You must
present these documents, should any
warranty coverage disagreement occur.
Failure to do so can result in your
warranty being voided either in whole
or in part.
This evidence may consist of the
following:
The Mazda Scheduled Maintenance
Record, refer to the Warranty
Booklet, must be completely filled
out showing mileage, repair order
number, date for each service, and
signed by a qualified automotive
service technician who service
vehicles.
Original copies of repair orders or
other receipts that include the
mileage and date the vehicle was
serviced. Each receipt should be
signed by a qualified automotive
service technician.
For self maintenance, a statement
that you completed the maintenance
yourself, displaying mileage and the
date the work was performed. Also,
receipts for the replacement parts (fluid, filters, etc.) indicating the date
and mileage must accompany this
statement.
NOTE
If you elect to perform maintenance
yourself or have your vehicle serviced
at a location other than an Authorized
Mazda Dealer, Mazda requires that all
fluids, parts and materials must meet
Mazda standards for durability and
performance as described in this
manual.
