Maintenance Monitor (Type A audio)
“Oil Change” with a fl exible setting *1 is available. Consult your Authorized Mazda Dealer
when you want to change the setting *2 . Once the system turns on, the wrench indicator light

km (250 mile), or remaining days are less than 15 (whichever comes fi rst).
Reset method
Press and hold the TRIP button with the ignition switched off, then switch it on. Keep
pressing the TRIP button for more than 5 seconds. The master warning light will fl ash for a
few seconds when the reset is completed.
*1 The fl exible setting is available in the United States and Puerto Rico. Based on the
engine operating conditions, the onboard computer in your vehicle calculates the
remaining oil life. Mazda Genuine 0W-20 oil and Castrol
® 0W-20 oil are required to
achieve optimum calculation performance.
*2 Once the Flexible Oil Maintenance Setting is selected, the system must be reset
whenever replacing the engine oil.

WARNING
Do not perform maintenance work if you lack suffi cient knowledge and experience
or the proper tools and equipment to do the work. Have maintenance work done by a
qualifi ed technician:
Performing maintenance work on a vehicle is dangerous if not done properly. You can be
seriously injured while performing some maintenance procedures.

If you must run the engine while working under the hood, make certain that you
remove all jewelry (especially rings, bracelets, watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar loose clothing before getting near the engine or cooling
fan which may turn on unexpectedly:
Working under the hood with the engine running is dangerous. It becomes even more
dangerous when you wear jewelry or loose clothing.
Either can become entangled in moving parts and result in injury.

Switch the ignition to off and make sure the fan is not running before attempting
to work near the cooling fan:
Working near the cooling fan when it is running is dangerous. The fan could continue
running indefi nitely even if the engine has stopped and the engine compartment
temperature is high. You could be hit by the fan and seriously injured.

Do not leave items in the engine compartment:
After you have fi nished checking or doing servicing in the engine compartment, do not
forget and leave items such as tools or rags in the engine compartment.
Tools or other items left in the engine compartment could cause engine damage or a fi re
leading to an unexpected accident.
