SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
•To ensure efficient operation of the engine and all systems related to emission control, the ignition and fuel systems must
be serviced regularly. It is strongly recommended that all servicing related to these systems be done by an authorized
Mazda Dealer.
•After the described period, continue to follow the described maintenance at the recommended intervals.
•Refer below for a description of items marked* in the maintenance chart.
*1: If the vehicle is operated under any of the following conditions, change the engine oil and oil filter every 10,000 km
(6,250 miles) or shorter.
a. Driving in dusty conditions.
b. Extended periods of idling or low speed operation.
c. Driving for long period in cold temperatures or driving regularly at short distance only.
*2: Also inspect and adjust the power steering and air conditioner drive belts, if installed.
*3: If the brakes are used extensively (for example, continuous hard driving or mountain driving) or if the vehicle is
operated in extremely humid climates, change the brake fluid annually.
*4: If the vehicle is operated in very dusty or sandy areas, clean and if necessary, replace the air cleaner element more
often than the recommended intervals.
*5: Replacement of the timing belt is required at every 100,000 km (62,500 miles).
Failure to replace the timing belt may result in damage to the engine.
*6: Replacement of the timing belt is required at every 120,000 km (75,000 miles).
Failure to replace the timing belt may result in damage to the engine.
*7: If the vehicle is operated under any of the following conditions, change the rear differential oil
every 40,000 km (25,000 miles).
a. Towing a trailer or using a car - top carrier
b. Driving in dusty, sandy or wet condition
c. Extended periods of idling or low speed operation
d. Repeated short trips of less than 16 km (10 miles)
*8: If this component has been submerged in water, the oil should be changed.

Warning
•When the engine and the oil are hot, they can badly burn. Be careful not to burn yourself during
removal/installation of each component.
1. Verify that the battery is fully charged.
•Recharge it if necessary. (See G–6 BATTERY INSPECTION.)
2. Warm up the engine to the normal operating system temperature.
3. Stop the engine and allow it to cool off for about 10 min.
Warning
•Fuel line spills and leakage are dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injuries or death and
damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent fuel from spurting out of the glow plug
hole, do not ground the fuel injector terminal. (See F2–45 Fuel Line Safety Procedures.)
4. Disconnect the fuel injector connector.
Warning
•If the glow plug harness connector is connected, the glow plug harness and engine component
can come into contact and cause a short when the engine switch is ON. Disconnect the glow plug
harness connector before turning the engine switch on.
5. Remove the engine cover. (See B2–9 TIMING BELT REMOVAL/INSTALLATION.)
