Warnings and Cautionsfor When the Refueling
WARNING
Always heed the following when
refueling.
 Turn off the hybrid system.
 Keep sparks and
flames away from
the fuel-filler port.
 Wipe off any spilled fuel as soon as
possible.
Otherwise, it could cause a fire or
explosion because fuel or fuel vapor
could ignite easily.
Before refueling, make sure to
discharge the static electricity in your
body by touching a metal object on
the vehicle body.
An electrical discharge could ignite the
fuel or cause serious burns.
Always heed the following while
refueling.
 Always refuel the vehicle by yourself
and do not allow other people to
come close to the fuel-filler port.
 Do not go back inside the cabin or
touch a person or object charged
with static electricity.
 Do not use any electronic devices
such as a mobile phone or
Smartphone.
It could ignite the fuel or cause serious
burns caused by the charged static
electricity in your body again.
When opening/closing the fuel-filler
cap, always turn the fuel-filler cap by
holding the knob of the fuel-filler cap.
An electrical discharge could ignite the
fuel or cause serious burns.
Slowly open the fuel-filler cap, wait
for any hissing to stop, then open the
cap.
If the fuel-filler cap is opened quickly,
fuel may spray out and cause a fire.
Spraying fuel can also be harmful if it
gets in the eyes or on the skin.
Do not breath fuel vapors.
To x i c s u b s t a n c e s m i ght be included in
the fuel.
Insert the refueling nozzle into the
fuel-filler port securely.
If the nozzle is not inserted sufficiently,
it may delay the auto stop when the
tank is full, resulting in the fuel spilling
over and a possible fire.
Do not continue fueling after it is
stopped automatically.
If you continue fueling, fuel may spill
over causing a fire.
Do not pull out the refueling nozzle
immediately after the fuel is stopped
automatically.
The fuel remaining in the refueling
nozzle may spill out and cause a fire.
Securely close the fuel-filler cap.
If the fuel-filler cap is not closed
securely, fuel may leak while driving
the vehicle which could cause a fire.
CAUTION
 Follow the fueling instructions
indicated at the gas station when
refueling.

Fuel Requirements
Vehicles with catalytic converters or oxygen sensors must use ONLY UNLEADED
FUEL, which will reduce exhaust emissions and keep spark plug fouling to a
minimum.

To achieve maximum engine performance, use the specified fuel.
Fuel
Octane Rating*1 (Anti-knock index)
Premium unleaded fuel 91 [(R+M)/2 method] or above (96 RON or above)
Regular unleaded fuel with an octane rati ng from 87 to 90 (91 to 95 RON) can be
used, but this will reduce performance slightly, such as reduced engine output, and
engine knocking.
Fuel with a rating lower than 87 octane (91 RON) will negatively affect the emission
control system performance and could al so cause engine knocking and serious
engine damage.
*1 U.S. federal law requires that octane ratings be posted on gas station pumps.
CAUTION
 USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL.
Leaded fuel is harmful to the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors and will lead
to deterioration of the emission control system and or failures.
 This vehicle can only use oxygenated fuels containing no more than 10 % ethanol
by volume. Damage to the vehicle may occur when ethanol exceeds this
recommendation, or if the gasoline cont ains any methanol. Stop using gasohol of
any kind if your vehicle engine is performing poorly.
 Never add fuel system additives other than a Mazda genuine product, otherwise
the emission control system could be damaged. Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer for details.
Gasoline blended with oxygenates such as alcohol or ether compounds are generally
referred to as oxygenated fuels. The comm on gasoline blend that can be used with
your vehicle is ethanol blended at no more than 10 %. Gasoline containing alcohol,
such as ethanol or methanol, may be marketed under the name "Gasohol".

Vehicle damage and drivability problems resulting from the use of the following may
not be covered by the warranty.
Gasohol containing more than 10 % ethanol.Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol.Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.

Keep flames and sparks away from lead-acid battery cells and do not
allow metal tools to contact the positive (+) or negative (-) terminal of the
lead-acid battery when working near a lead-acid battery. Do not allow the
positive (+) terminal to contact the vehicle body.
Flames and sparks near lead-acid battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas,
produced during normal lead-acid battery operation, could ignite and cause the
lead-acid battery to explode. An exploding lead-acid battery can cause serious burns
and injuries. Keep all flames including cigarettes and sparks away from lead-acid
battery cells.
Keep all flames and sparks away from lead-acid battery cells
because hydrogen gas is produced from le ad-acid battery cells while charging the
lead-acid battery or adding lead-acid battery fluid.
Flames and sparks near lead-acid battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas,
produced during normal lead-acid battery operation, could ignite and cause the
lead-acid battery to explode. An exploding lead-acid battery can cause serious burns
and injuries. Keep all flames including cigarettes and sparks away from lead-acid
battery cells.
Do not jump-start a frozen lead-acid battery or one with a low fluid level.
Jump-starting a frozen lead-acid battery or one with a low fluid level is dangerous. It
may rupture or explode, causing serious injury.
Connect the negative cable to a good ground point away from the lead-acid
battery.
Connecting the end of the second jumper cable to the negative (–) terminal of the
depleted lead-acid battery is dangerous.
A spark could cause the gas around the lead-acid battery to explode and injure
someone.
Route the jumper cables away from parts that will be moving.
Connecting a jumper cable near or to moving part (cooling fans) is dangerous. The
cable could get caught when the hybrid system starts and cause serious injury.
CAUTION
Use only a 12 V booster system. You can damage a 12 V starter, ignition system,
and other electrical parts beyond repair with a 24 V power supply (two 12 V
batteries in series).
 Do not use your vehicle as a booster vehicle to prevent damaging your vehicle.
1. Make sure that the vehicle power is switched OFF.

The vehicle status monitor feature alerts you of maintenance needs by turning on the
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.
