6. Inspect it and replace if it’s blown.
7. Push in a new fuse of the same rating,
and make sure it fits tightly. If it
doesn’t, have an Authorized Mazda

the SPARE circuit.

under the hood. If a fuse is blown, it must
be replaced. Follow these steps:

other switches.2. Remove the fuse block cover.

Maintenance and Care
Appearance Care
Form No. 8S18-EA-03I
Follow all
label and container directions
when using a chemical cleaner or polish.
Read all warnings and cautions.

Maintaining the Finish
Wa s h i n g
To help protect the finish from rust and
deterioration, wash your Mazda
thoroughly and frequently, at least once a
month, with lukewarm or cold water.
If the vehicle is washed improperly, the
paint surface could be scratched. Here are
some examples of how scratching could
occur.
Scratches occur on the paint surface
when:
•The vehicle is washed without first
rinsing off dirt and other foreign
matter.
•The vehicle is washed with a rough,
dry, or dirty cloth.
•The vehicle is washed at a car wash
that uses brushes that are dirty or too
stiff.
•Cleansers or wax containing abrasives
are used.Exterior Care
When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition switch is in
the ON position, the wipers may move
automatically in the following cases:
•If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched.
•If the windshield above the rain
sensor is wiped with a cloth.
•If the windshield is given a shock.
•If the rain sensor is given a shock
from inside the vehicle.
Be careful not to pinch hands or
fingers as it may cause injury, or
damage the wipers. When washing or
servicing your Mazda, make sure the
wiper lever is in the OFF position.
CAUTION
NOTE
•Mazda is not responsible for
scratches caused by automatic car
washes or improper washing.
•Scratches are more noticeable on
vehicles with darker paint finishes.
