wrench indicator light or displaying a message in the instrument panel, or both.
Every maintenance must be done when the display/wrench indication comes on.
The display/wrench indication will come on before reaching the maximum interval
of 16,000 km (10,000 miles), or 12 mont hs (after the previous maintenance).
If you drive your vehicle under any of th e following conditions, follow the Severe
Driving Scheduled Maintenance and replace the engine oil and filter every 8,000 km
(5,000 miles) or 6 months, whichever comes first.
Otherwise, follow the Normal Driv ing Scheduled Maintenance intervals.
1. The vehicle is idled for long periods or driven at low speeds, such as with police cars, taxis, or driver's education school car.
2. The vehicle is driven mainly unpaved road.
3. The vehicle is driven mainly on mountain roads or uphill roads.
If you are following the Severe Driving Scheduled Maintenance (8,000 km (5,000

Inspecting Engine Oil
CAUTION
Do not overfill the engine oil. This may
cause engine damage.
Use center display screen indication to
inspect the engine oil level.
1. Make sure the hood is closed.
2. Start the hybrid system.
3. Select “Information” on the Home screen to display the vehicle status
monitor.
4. Select “Vehicle Status Monitor”.
5. Select “Engine Oil Level”.
6. Select “Start”. The engine starts and measurement
of the engine oil level begins. Do
not depress the accelerator pedal
during the measurement.
NOTE
If measurement conditions not
shown on the display are not met
such as when warm-up operation
has not been completed due to low
outdoor temperatures, the
measurement error screen may be
displayed. In this case, drive the
vehicle using the engine for a
certain period of time to complete
the warm-up operation and repeat
the procedure.
7. Switch the vehicle power OFF.
NOTE
After the measurement is
completed, the engine does not
stop automatically.
Recommended Oil
Use SAE 0W-20 engine oil.
Mazda Genuine Oil is used in your
Mazda vehicle. Mazda Genuine
0W-20 Oil is required to achieve
optimum fuel economy.
For maintenance service, Mazda
recommends Genuine Mazda Parts
and Genuine Mazda Premium Oil.
Only use SAE 0W-20 oil “Certified For
Gasoline Engines” by the American
Petroleum Institute (API).
Oil with this trademark symbol
conforms to the current engine and
emission system protection standards

Inspect the antifreeze protection and
coolant level in the coolant reservoir at
least once a year―at the beginning of
the winter season ―and before
traveling where temperatures may drop
below freezing.
Inspect the condition and connections
of all cooling system and heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.
There are two cooling circuits: one for
the automatic transmission, and the
other for the engine. Check both
circuits.
The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the F and L
marks, and between the FULL and
LOW marks on the coolant reservoir
when the engine is cool.
There are two coolant reservoir tanks.
Check each of them.
1. The tank for the EV system
2. The tank for the engine
If it is at or near the LOW position, add
enough coolant to the coolant
reservoir to provide freezing and
corrosion protection and to bring the
level to FULL.
Securely tighten the coolant reservoir
tank cap after adding coolant.
CAUTION
Radiator coolant will damage paint.
Rinse it off quickly if spilled.
If the “FL22” mark is shown on or
near the cooling system cap, use of
FL-22 is recommended when
replacing engine coolant. Using
engine coolant other than FL-22 may
cause serious damage to the engine
and cooling system.
If the coolant reservoir is empty or new
coolant is required frequently, consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Keep your tire pressure at the correct
levels. If one frequently needsinflating, have it inspected.Rotating the Tires
WARNING
Rotate tires periodically.
Irregular tire wear is dangerous. To
equalize tread wear for maintaining
good performance in handling and
braking , rotate the tires periodically or
sooner if irregular wear develops.
Please refer to Scheduled maintenance
for your tire rotation interval.
During rotation, inspect them for
correct balance.
Do not include (TEMPORARY USE
ONLY) spare tire in rotation.
Also, inspect them for uneven wear
and damage. Abnormal wear is usually
caused by one or a combination of the
following:
Incorrect tire pressureImproper wheel alignmentOut-of-balance wheelSevere braking
After rotation, inflate all tire pressures
to specification (page 10-71) and
inspect the lug nuts for tightness.
