Driving Tips
NOTE
 


y Do not use the parking brake in freezing
weather as it may freeze. Instead, shift
to P and block the rear wheels.
 


y Remove snow before driving. Snow left
on the windshield is dangerous as it
could obstruct vision.
 


y Do not apply excessive force to a
window scraper when removing ice or
frozen snow on the mirror glass and
windshield.
 


y Never use warm or hot water for
removing snow or ice from windows and
mirrors as it could result in the glass
cracking.
 


y Drive slowly. Braking performance
can be adversely affected if snow or
ice adheres to the brake components. If
this situation occurs, drive the vehicle
slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal
and lightly applying the brakes several
times until the brake performance
returns to normal.
Snow Tires
Use snow tires on all four wheels
Do not go faster than 120 km/h (75 mph)
while driving with snow tires. Infl ate snow
tires 30 kPa (0.3 kgf/cm
2 , 4.3 psi) more
than recommended on the tire pressure
label (driver's door frame), but never
more than the maximum cold-tire pressure
shown on the tires.
Except Mexico
The vehicle is originally equipped with
all season radials designed to be used all
year around. In some extreme climates you
may fi nd it necessary to replace them with
snow tires during the winter months to
further improve traction on snow and ice
covered roads.
Mexico
The vehicle is originally equipped with
summer tires designed for optimum
traction on wet and dry roads. If your
vehicle is to be used on snow and ice
covered roads, Mazda recommends that
you replace the tires originally equipped
on your vehicle with snow tires during the
winter months.
WARNING
Use only the same size and type tires
(snow, radial, or non-radial) on all four
wheels:
Using tires diff erent in size or type is
dangerous. Your vehicle's handling
could be greatly aff ected and result in
an accident.
CAUTION
Check local regulations before using
studded tires.

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
 


¾ 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.
 


¾ 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.
 


¾ 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.
 


¾ Do not place objects above the active driving display screen or apply stickers to the
combiner as they will cause interference.
 


¾ 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.




¾ Do not allow intense light to hit the optical receiver. Otherwise, it could cause damage.
NOTE




y It may be diffi cult to view the display when wearing sunglasses. Take off your sunglasses
or adjust the luminosity.
 


y If the battery has been removed and re-installed or the battery voltage is low, the adjusted
position may deviate.
 


y The display may be diffi cult to view or temporarily affected by weather conditions such as
rain, snow, light, and temperature.
 


y If the audio system is removed, the active driving display cannot be operated.
