evaporates, the minerals will
concentrate and harden to form white
rings. The rings can damage your
vehicle's finish.
Prevention
It is necessary to wash and wax your
vehicle to preserve its finish according
to the instructions in this section.
These steps should be taken
immediately after you find water marks
on your vehicle's finish.

Occurrence
Paint chipping occurs when gravel
thrown in the air by another vehicle's
tires hits your vehicle.
How to avoid paint chipping
Keeping a safe distance between you
and the vehicle ahead reduces the
chances of having your paint chipped
by flying gravel.
NOTE
The paint chipping zone varies with
the speed of the vehicle. For
example, when traveling at 90 km/h
(56 mph), the paint chipping zone is
50 m (164 ft).
In low temperatures a vehicle's
finish
hardens. This increases the chance of
paint chipping.
Chipped paint can lead to rust
forming on your Mazda. Before this
happens, repair the damage by using
Mazda touch-up paint according to
the instructions in this section.
Failure to repair the affected area
could lead to serious rusting and
expensive repairs.

Follow all label and container
directions when using a chemical
cleaner or polish. Read all warnings
and cautions.

the procedure on how to move the

the rain sensor is touched or wiped
with a cloth.
 The windshield or the rain sensor
area in the cabin is hit.

cleaning the windshield, always
make sure the wiper lever is in the
OFF position.

compartment. Otherwise, it could
result in engine-starting problems or
