Before Driving
Fuel and Emission
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.
  The use of E10 fuel with 10 % ethanol in Europe is safe for your vehicle. Damage to
your vehicle may occur when ethanol exceeds this recommendation.
  Never add fuel system additives, otherwise the emission control system could be
damaged. Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer
for details.
Fuel Requirements (SKYACTIV-D 2.2)
The vehicle will operate effi ciently on diesel fuel with specifi cation EN590 or the
equivalent.
CAUTION
  Never use fuel other than specifi cation EN590 or the equivalent for your vehicle. Use
of petrol or paraffi n in diesel engines will result in engine damage.

 Never add fuel system additives. Otherwise, the emission control system could be
damaged. Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer
for details.
NOTE
When refuelling, always add at least 10 L (2.6 US gal, 2.2 Imp gal) of fuel.

Security System
Theft-Deterrent System
(With the Intrusion
Sensor)
*
If the theft deterrent system detects an
inappropriate entry into the vehicle or the
intrusion sensor detects movement in the
vehicle which could result in the vehicle or
its contents being stolen, the alarm alerts
the surrounding area of an abnormality by
sounding the siren and fl ashing the hazard
warning lights.
The system will not function unless it's
properly armed. So when you leave the
vehicle, follow the arming procedure
correctly.
Intrusion sensor
The intrusion sensor uses ultrasonic waves
to detect movement inside the vehicle and
to raise an alert of an intrusion into the
vehicle.
The intrusion sensor detects certain kinds
of movement inside the vehicle, however,
it may also respond to phenomenon
outside the vehicle such as vibrations, loud
noise, wind, and air currents.
CAUTION
In order for the intrusion sensor to
operate appropriately, be aware of the
following:
 
 Do not hang clothing or objects from
a head restraint or a coat hook.
  Return the extension sunvisors to
their original positions.
  Do not blind the intrusion sensor by
covering it or placing objects over it.
  Do not allow the intrusion sensor to
get soiled or wipe it with a liquid.
  Do not shock or cause an impact to
the intrusion sensor or the intrusion
sensor bezel.
  Do not install seats or seat covers
that are not Mazda genuine products.
  To prevent obstruction of intrusion
sensor, do not place objects or cargo
near the intrusion sensor that are
higher than the head restraints.

When Driving
Instrument Cluster and Display
Active Driving Display *
Optical receiver Mirror Combiner
WARNING
Always adjust the display brightness and position with the vehicle stopped:
Adjusting the display brightness and position while driving the vehicle is dangerous as
doing so could distract your attention from the road ahead and lead to an accident.
CAUTION
  Do not try to adjust the angle or open/close the active driving display manually.
Fingerprints on the display will make it diffi cult to view and using excessive force
when operating it could cause damage.
  Do not place objects in the vicinity of the active driving display. The active driving
display may not operate or any interference with its operation could cause damage.
  Do not place beverages near the active driving display. If water or other liquids are
splashed on the active driving display, it could cause damage.
  Do not place objects above the active driving display screen or apply stickers to the
combiner as they will cause interference.
  A sensor is integrated to control the display's luminosity. If the optical receiver is
covered, the display's luminosity will lower making the display diffi cult to view.

 Do not allow intense light to hit the optical receiver. Otherwise, it could cause damage.
