NOTE
The voice command examples shown in this manual are only a partial list of the available
commands. Some commands may be unusable depending on the vehicle specifications.
Some commands cannot be used depending on the device connection conditions and the
use conditions.
When the Barge-In setting is on, voice commands can be made even while the voice
guidance is being announced. For details on Barge-In, refer to the System Settings section
in the Mazda Connec t Owner's Manual.
For details on voice commands which can be used on the navigation screen, refer to the
navigation system manual.
To prevent misunderstood voice commands, be aware of the follow ing points:
Connect your mobile phone to Bluetooth® before operating the mobile phone using voice
recognition.
After pressing the talk/pick-up button, wait for the beep befor e speaking a command.
Speaking in a slightly louder voice will improve voice recognition, but an excessively
loud voice is unnecessary. Try to speak in a slightly louder voice than when talking to
other passengers in the vehicle.
You do not need to speak slowly. Speak at a normal speed.
When calling a person in the device's phonebook, the recognitio n rate increases the longer
the name is. Errors may occur wi th names that are short such as “Mama”, “Home”, or
“wife”.
Speak clearly, without pausing between words or numbers.
Voice commands other than those specified, cannot be recognized . Speak in the wording
specified by the voice commands.
It is not necessary to face the microphone or be near it. Speak the voice commands while
maintaining a safe driving position.
Close the windows and the moonroof* to reduce loud noises from outside the vehicle and
to prevent the airflow of the air-conditioning system from bein g a disturbance when using
Bluetooth
® Hands-Free.
Make sure that the air flow from the air conditioner is not blowing on the microphone.
If the voice recognition is poor with the guidance volume set to high, set the Barge-In to
OFF.

mobile device and the charging area.
 The temperature of the mobile device
is high.
 The mobile device is placed with the
charging side facing upward.
 The mobile device is placed in a
position extremely deviating from the
center of the charging area.
 Your vehicle is in an area where strong
radio waves or electrical noise occur
such as near a television tower, power
plant, or airport.
 The Near Field Communication (NFC)
function setting of the mobile device is
on (depends on the model of the
mobile device).
 Keep the following items away from the
charging area. Otherwise the data stored
on the mobile device could be erased or
the device could malfunction.
 Magnetic items such as magnets,
magnetic cards, and magnetic
recording media.
 High precision devices such as
wristwatches.
 Before using the Wireless Charger (Qi),
make sure to back up the data stored on
the mobile device. The data on the
mobile device could be deleted.
 Do not wipe the Wireless Charger (Qi)
using oil, alcohol, or thinner, or spray
hairspray or insecticide onto it.
Otherwise, it could cause damage or
cracking.Do not leave mobile devices in the cabin.
The temperature inside the cabin may
become very hot, causing the devices to
malfunction.

NOTE
A mobile device larger than the
charging area cannot be charged. In
addition, even if the mobile device is in
the charging area, the charging
efficiency may decrease or charging
may not be possible depending on where
the mobile device is placed.
If the function to reduce noise on the
radio is used, fast charging may be
disabled depending on the mobile device
being charged.
If the LED indicator is flashing in amber
or green, the charging efficiency is low.
Check that there is no foreign matter
between the mobile device and the
charging area, and position the mobile
device near the center of the charging
area.
Depending on the mobile device case or
accessories used, the mobile device may
not charge, or the charging efficiency
may be reduced resulting in a longer
charging time. If charging does not start
even when a mobile device is placed on
the charging area, remove the mobile
device case or any accessories.
While the keyless entry is operating,
charging may stop temporarily, however,
this does not indicate a problem.
During charging, the Wireless Charger
(Qi) and the mobile device become
warm, however, this does not indicate a
problem.

Washer Fluid
▼Inspecting Washer Fluid Level
WA R N I N G
Use only windshield washer fluid or plain
water in the reservoir:
Using radiator antifreeze as washer fluid is
dangerous. If sprayed on the windshield, it
will dirty the windshield, affect your
visibility, and could result in an accident.
Using Washer Fluid Without Anti-freeze
Protection in Cold Weather:
Operating your vehicle in temperatures
below 4 °C (40 °F) using washer fluid
without anti-freeze protection is dangerous
as it could cause impaired windshield
vision and result in an accident. In cold
weather, always use washer fluid with
anti-freeze protection.
NOTE
State or local regulations may restrict the
use of volatile organic compounds
(VOCs), which are commonly used as
anti-freeze agents in washer fluid. A
washer fluid with limited VOC content
should be used only if it provides adequate
freeze resistance for all regions and
climates in which the vehicle will be
operated.
Add washer fluid under any of the
following conditions.
The top of the fluid level is low.
The Low Washer Fluid Level Warning
Indication/Warning Light (if equipped)
turns on.
The top of the fluid level is lower than L
(if equipped).
L

Use plain water if washer fluid is
unavailable.
But use only washer
fluid in cold weather
to prevent it from freezing.
NOTE
Front and rear washer fluid is supplied
from the same reservoir.

▼Tire Inflation Pressure
WA R N I N G
Always inflate the tires to the correct
pressure:
Overinflation or underinflation of tires is
dangerous. Adverse handling or
unexpected tire failure could result in a
serious accident.
Refer to Tires on page 9-7.
Use only a Mazda-genuine tire valve cap:
Use of a non-genuine part is dangerous as
the correct tire air pressure cannot be
maintained if the tire valve becomes
damaged. If the vehicle is driven under this
condition, the tire air pressure will decrease
which could result in a serious accident. Do
not use any part for the tire valve cap that
is not a Mazda-genuine part.
Inspect all tire pressures monthly
(including the spare) when the tires are
cold. Maintain recommended pressures for
the best ride, handl
ing, and minimum tire
wear.
Refer to the specification charts (page
9-7).
NOTE
Cold inflation pressure
The cold inflation pressure is the
pressure measured under ambient
temperatures before the vehicle is
driven.
Maximum inflation pressure
The maximum inflation pressure is the
upper limit of the cold inflation pressure
designated by the tire manufacturer.
Recommended inflation pressure
The recommended inflation pressure is
the cold inflation pressure necessary for
maintaining the performance of your
Mazda.
Always check tire pressure when tires
are cold.
Warm tires normally exceed
recommended pressures. Do not release
air from warm tires to adjust the
pressure.
Underinflation can cause reduced fuel
economy, uneven and accelerated tire
wear, and poor sealing of the tire bead,
which will deform the wheel and cause
separation of tire from rim.
Overinflation can produce a harsh ride,
uneven and accelerated tire wear, and a
greater possibility of damage from road
hazards.
Keep your tire pressure at the correct
levels. If one frequen tly needs inflating,
have it inspected.
▼ Tire Rotation
WA R N I N G
Rotate tires periodically:
Irregular tire wear is dangerous. To
equalize tread wear for maintaining good
performance in handling and braking,
rotate the tires every 12,000 km (7,500
miles). However Mazda recommends to
rotate every 8,000 km (5,000 miles) to help
increase tire life and distribute wear more
evenly.
