GI tMPORTANT INFORMATION
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
BASIC ASSUMPTIONS
This workshop manual assumes that you have certarn special tools that are necessary for the safe and
efficient performance of service operations on Mazda vehicles and that you know how to use them properly.
It also assumes that you are familiar with automobile systems and basic service and repair procedures.
YOU should not attempt to use this manual unless these assumpttons are correct and you understand the
consequences described below.
SAFETY RtSK
This manual contains certain notes, warnings, and other precautionary information that you should care-
fully read and follow to reduce the risk of personal injury to yourself or others and the risk of improper
service that may damage the vehicle or render it unsafe. If there IS no such information in regard to any
specific service method, this does not mean there is no possibility that personal safety or vehicle safety
wili be jeopardized by the use of incorrect methods or tools.
POSStBLE LOSS OF WARRANTY
The manufacturer’s warranty on Mazda vehicles and engines can be voided if improper service or repairs
are performed by persons other than those at an Authorked Mazda Dealer.
WARNtNG ON LUBRtCANTS AND GREASES
Avoid all prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oils, especially used oils. Used oils contaminated
during service (e+g., engine sump oils) are more irritating and more likely to cause serious effects, includ-
ing skin cancer, in the event of gross and prolonged skin contact.
Wash skin thoroughly after work involving 011.
Protective hand cleaners may be of value provided they can be removed from the skin with water Do
not use gasoline, paraffin, or other solvents to remove oil from the skrn.
Lubricants and greases may be slightly irritating to the eyes.
Repeated or protonged skin contact shoutd be avoided by wearing protective clothing if necessary. Par-
ticular care should be taken with used oils and greases containing lead. Do not allow work clothing .to
be contaminated with oil. Dry clean or launder such clothing at regular intervals.

REPAIR PROCEDURE
I. Most repair operations begin with an overview illustration. It identifies the components, shows how the
parts fit together, and visual parts inspections. If a damaged or worn part is found, repair or replace it
as necessary.
2. Expendable parts, tightening torques, and symbols for oil, grease, and sealant are shown in the overview
illustration.
3. Pages related to service procedures are shown under the tllustration. Refer to this informatron when ser-
vicing the related part

GI CAUTION
USING ELECTRICAL MEASURING EQUIPMENT
Use Handling precautions Operation Equpment
Test lamp Test to find open or shorted
crrcuits
l Connect the test lamp
between the circuit being
measured and a ground.
l The lamp will lrght if the
circurt is energized to the
point testedA
l Test lamps use 12V t.4W or
3.4W bulbs or light-emitting
diodes (LEOs). Using a
large-capacity bulb may
damage :he Ckil.
Jumper wrre Used to create a temporary
ctrcult . Connect the jumper wire
between the terminals of a
cjrcurt to bypass a switch. l 00 not connect the lumper
wrre from the power source
line to ground; this may
cause burning or other
damage to harnesses or
electrontc components.
Voltmeter Used for measuring the voltage
of a circutt to find possible
opens or shot-k.
l Connect the voltmeter in
parallel wrth the cjrcurt.
l Set the range to the dewed
voltage.
l Use the service hole when measuring the voltage at the
diagnosis connector.
l Connect the positive (+)
probe to the point where
voltage IS to be. measured
and the negatrve (-) probe to
a ground.
l Tie a thin wire to the
posrtive (+) probe to access
narrow terminals.
Ohmmeter Used to find opens and shorts
In the ctrcurt, to confrrm
contrnurty and to measure
reststance.
l Zero the ohmmeter. l Zero the meter after
switching to the measuring
range.
l Before using the ohmmeter,
make sure the ignitron
switch is off or the megatrve
(-) battery cable is
disconnected to prevent
burning or otherwise
damaging the ohmmeter. &--- l Verify that voltage IS not
applied to the circuit
l Connect the probes between
two points in a Circuit.,
t I t
+ Connect the ammeter in
series with the circuit by
touchtng the positive ( +)
probe to the power-srde
terminal and the negative (-
probe to the ground-srde
terminal. Ammeter
Used to check alternator output,
current supplied to the starter.
and dark current wrthrn a circutt. l Set the range to the desired
amperage.
l Connect the ammeter In
series with the circuit. The
ammeter may be burned or
otherwise damaged if it IS
connected in parallel. Note
Dark current IS the constant flow
of current whrle
the ignitron
switch is OFF.

REMARKS
After 80,000 km or 48 months, continue to follow the described maintenance at the recommended intervals.
As for * marked items in this maintenance chart, note the following points.
+ 1 Major service interval at 12 months/20,000 km (12,000 miles).
Lubrication service based on distance only 10,000 km (6,000 miles) not time.
l 2 Adjust or inspect alternator and water pump drive belt, and power steering and air conditioner drive belt
if equipped.
‘3 Replacement of the timing belt is required at every 100,000 km (60,000 mile). Failure to replace the tim-
ing bett may result in damage to the engine.
‘4 tf the vehicle is operated under any of the following conditions, it is suggested that the engine oil and
oil filter be changed more often than the recommended intervals.
a) Driving in dusty conditions. I
:
b) Extended periods of idling or low speed operation. i
i!
c) Driving for a prolonged periods in cold temperatures or regularly driving onty short distances.
*5 If the vehicle is operated in very dusty or sandy areas, inspect and, if necessary, replace more often
than at usual recommended intervals.
l 6 This IS a full function check of all electrical systems, i.e, atl
ltghts. washers (including condition of blades)
electric windows, sunroof, horn etc.
‘7 Replace every two years. $1
‘I
If there has been continuous hard driving, mountain
drivtng, or if the brakes are used extensively or the
vehicle is operated in extremely humid climates, the brake fluid should be changed annually.
Emission Control and Related Systems
The ignition and fuel systems are vitally important to the proper operation of the-emission control and relat-
ed system, as well as for efficient engine operation. It is strongly recommended that all servicing related
to these systems be done by your Authorised Mazda Dealer.
