Maintenance and Care
Essential Information
I n t r o d u c t i o n
Be careful not to hurt yourself when inspecting your vehicle, replacing a tyre, or doing some
kind of maintenance such as car washing.
In particular, wear thick work gloves such as cotton gloves when touching areas that
are dif¿ cult to see while inspecting or working on your vehicle. Doing inspections or
procedures with your bare hands could cause injury.
If you are unsure about any procedure it describes, we strongly urge you to have a reliable
and quali¿ ed technician perform the work, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
Authorised Mazda technicians and genuine Mazda parts are dedicated to your vehicle.
Without this expertise and the parts that have been designed and made especially for your
Mazda, inadequate, incomplete, and insuf¿ cient servicing may result in problems. This
could lead to vehicle damage or an accident and injuries.
For expert advice and quality service, consult an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
The owner should retain evidence that proper maintenance has been performed as
prescribed.
A claim against a warranty will not qualify if it results from lack of maintenance and not
from defective material or authorised workmanship.
The malfunction diagnosis connector is designed exclusively for connecting the specially
designed device to perform on-board diagnosis.
Do not connect any devices other than the specially designed malfunction diagnosis devices
for servicing. If any device other than the malfunction diagnosis device is connected, it may
affect the vehicle's electrical devices or lead to damage such as battery depletion.

Maintenance and Care
Owner Maintenance
Battery Maintenance
To get the best service from a battery:
 


 Keep it securely mounted.



 Keep the top clean and dry.



 Keep terminals and connections clean,
tight, and coated with petroleum jelly or
terminal grease.
 


 Rinse off spilled electrolyte immediately
with a solution of water and baking
soda.
 


 If the vehicle will not be used for an
extended time, disconnect the battery
leads and charge the battery every six
weeks.
Inspecting Electrolyte Level
A low level of electrolyte À uid will cause
the battery to discharge quickly.
Upper level
Lower level
Inspect the electrolyte level at least once
a week. If it is low, remove the caps and
add enough distilled water to bring the
level between the upper and lower level
(illustration).
Do not over¿ ll.
Examine the speci¿ c gravity of the
electrolyte with a hydrometer, especially
during cold weather. If it is low, recharge
the battery.
Battery Recharging
NOTE
  Before performing maintenance or
recharging the battery, turn off all
accessories and stop the engine.
  To disconnect the battery, remove the
negative lead ¿ rst. Install it last when
connecting the battery.
  Be sure to remove the caps before
recharging the battery.
 (With i-stop system) Do not quick-charge the battery.




 If the battery quickly discharges
because, for example, the lights were
left on too long with the engine off,
slow-charge it as required by battery
size and charger capacity.
 


 If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while the
vehicle is being used, recharge it as
required by battery size and charger
capacity.
Battery Replacement
Contact an Authorised Mazda Repairer for
a battery replacement purchase.

If Trouble Arises
Battery Runs Out
J u m p - S t a r t i n g
Jump-starting is dangerous if done incorrectly. So follow the procedure carefully. If you
feel unsure about jump-starting, we strongly recommend that you have a competent service
technician do the work.
WARNING
Follow These Precautions Carefully:
To ensure safe and correct handling of the battery, read the following precautions
carefully before using the battery or inspecting it.
Do not allow the positive ( ) terminal to contact any other metal object that
could cause sparks:
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced
during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An
exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries. When working near a battery,
do not allow metal tools to contact the positive (
) or negative ( ) terminal of the
battery.
Keep all À ames, including cigarettes, and sparks away from open battery cells:
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas, produced
during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the battery to explode. An
exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries.
Do not jump-start a frozen battery or one with a low À uid level:
Jump-starting a frozen battery or one with a low À uid level is dangerous. It may rupture
or explode, causing serious injury.
Connect the negative lead to a good ground point away from the battery:
Connecting the end of the second jumper lead to the negative (
) terminal of the
discharged battery is dangerous.
A spark could cause the gas around the battery to explode and injure someone.
Route the jumper leads away from parts that will be moving:
Connecting a jumper lead near or to moving parts (cooling fans, belts) is dangerous.
The lead could get caught when the engine starts and cause serious injury.

If Trouble Arises
Emergency Towing
Towing Description
We recommend that towing be done only
by an expert repairer, we recommend
an Authorised Mazda Repairer or a
commercial tow-truck service.
Proper lifting and towing are necessary
to prevent damage to the vehicle.
Government and local laws must be
followed.
A towed vehicle usually should have its
drive wheels (rear wheels) off the ground.
If excessive damage or other conditions
prevent this, use wheel dollies.
Wheel dollies
When towing with the rear wheels on the
ground, release the parking brake.
CAUTION
  Do not tow the vehicle pointed
backward with driving wheels on
the ground. This may cause internal
damage to the transmission.
  Do not tow with sling-type
equipment. This could damage your
vehicle. Use wheel-lift or À atbed
equipment.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, the vehicle may be towed with
all four wheels on the ground using the
towing hook at the front of the vehicle.
Only tow the vehicle on paved surfaces for
short distances at low speeds.
