Before Driving
Driving Tips
Install the chains on the front tires only.
Do not use chains on the rear tires.
Please consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
Installing the chains
1. If your vehicle is equipped with wheel
covers remove them, otherwise the
chain bands will scratch them.
2. Secure the chains on the front tires as
tightly as possible.
Always follow the chain manufacturer's
instructions.
3. Retighten the chains after driving
1/2—1 km (1/4—1/2 mile).

Driving In Flooded Area
WARNING
Dry off brakes that have become
wet by driving slowly, releasing the
accelerator pedal and lightly applying
the brakes several times until the brake
performance returns to normal:
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous.
Increased stopping distance or the
vehicle pulling to one side when
braking could result in a serious
accident. Light braking will indicate
whether the brakes have been aff ected.

CAUTION
Do not drive the vehicle on fl ooded
roads as it could cause short circuiting
of electrical/electronic parts, or
engine damage or stalling from
water absorption. If the vehicle has
been immersed in water, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.

recognition of the user. If your voice can
be recognized suf¿ ciently without using
this function, you may not realize the
added bene¿ t of the function. To register
your voice, the voice input command
list must be read out. Read out the list
when the vehicle is parked. Perform the
registration in as quiet a place as possible
(Page 5-89 ). The registration must be
performed completely. The required time
is a few minutes. The user needs to be
seated in the driver's seat with the voice
input command list for voice recognition
learning open to the page indicated below.
When voice recognition learning is done
for the ¿ rst time
