When Driving
i-ELOOP System
On conventional vehicles, the kinetic energy that is generated when the vehicle is
decelerated by applying the brakes or during engine braking ends up being discarded
as heat. By utilizing this discarded kinetic energy to generate electricity and use it to
power the vehicle's electrical devices and accessories such as the A/C and audio, fuel
consumption can be reduced. Mazda's system for generating electricity from this
kinetic energy is called the Deceleration Energy Generation System (i-ELOOP).
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ELOOP”.

When Driving
X Mark Full Low
Diesel Particulate Filter
The diesel particulate filter collects and removes most of the particulate matter
(PM) in the exhaust gas of a diesel engine.
Inspect the engine oil level periodically (before getting in the vehicle). When
inspecting the engine oil, if the engine oil level is close to or exceeds the “X” mark
on the dipstick, replace the engine oil.
Whenever the engine oil is replaced, the vehicles engine control unit needs to be
reset as soon as possible. Otherwise the wrench indicator light or engine oil
warning light may turn on.
For details, refer to Section 4, “i-ELOOP”, “Tyre Pressure Monitoring System”,
“Diesel Particulate Filter” or Section 6, “Owner Maintenance”.
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all
four wheels. If the air pressure of one or more tyres is too low, the system warns
the driver by indicating the tyre pressure monitoring system warning light in the
instrument cluster and operating a beep sound.
In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that the system
operates normally.
• A tyre pressure is adjusted.
• Tyre rotation is performed.
• A tyre or wheel is replaced.
• The battery is replaced or completely drained.
• The tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light is illuminated.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
To reset the engine control unit, refer to the vehicle engine control unit reset
procedure or consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
i-ELOOP Charging Display
If the vehicle is driven while “i-ELOOP charging”
is displayed, a beep sound is heard. Make sure the
message is no longer displayed before driving.
