Replenish the washer fluid on a flat
surface. If the vehicle is tilted, washerfluid may not fill sufficiently.
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).

Use plain water if washer fluid is
unavailable.
But use only washer fluid in cold
weather to prevent it from freezing.
Inspecting Lead-acid
Battery
WARNING
Read the following
precautions carefully before using the
lead-acid battery or inspecting to
ensure safe and correct handling.
Always wear eye
protection when working near the
lead-acid battery.
Working without eye protection is
dangerous. Lead-acid battery fluid
contains SULFURIC ACID which could
cause blindness if splashed into your
eyes. Also, hydrogen gas produced
during normal lead-acid battery
operation, could ignite and cause the
lead-acid battery to explode.
Wear eye protection
and protective gloves to prevent
contact with lead-acid battery fluid.
Spilled lead-acid battery fluid is
dangerous.
Lead-acid battery fluid contains
SULFURIC ACID which could cause
serious injuries if it gets in eyes, or on
the skin or clothing. If this happens,
immediately flush your eyes with water
for 15 minutes or wash your skin
thoroughly and get medical attention.

Replacing Windshield
Wiper Blade Rubbers
CAUTION
 Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to
affect
the wiper's ability to clean windows.
 An operation malfunction may occur
or the wiper
effectiveness may be
reduced if a water-repellent coating
is used.
 To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, paint thinner, or other
solvents on or near them.
 When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the vehicle power is
switched ON, the wipers may move
automatically in the following cases:
 If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched.
 If the windshield above the rain
sensor is wiped with a cloth.
 If the windshield is struck with a
hand or other object.
 If the rain sensor is struck with a
hand or other object from inside
the vehicle.
Be careful not to pinch hands or fingers as it may cause injury, or
damage the wipers. When washing
or servicing the vehicle, make sure
the wiper lever is in the OFF
position.
 Before lifting the windshield wiper
blades
off the windshield, always
follow the procedure for moving the
windshield wiper blades. Otherwise,
a wiper blade, wiper arm, or the
hood could be damaged.

CAUTION
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial
tires that have an asymmetrical tread
pattern or studs only from front to rear,
not from side to side. Tire performance
will be reduced if rotated from side to
side.
Replacing a Tire or aWheel
WARNING
Always use tires that are in good
condition.
Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking , steering , and
traction could result in an accident.
Replace all four tires at the same
time.
Replacing just one tire is dangerous. It
could cause poor handling and poor
braking resulting in loss of vehicle
control. Mazda strongly recommends
that you replace all four tires at the
same time.
Always use wheels of the correct size
on your vehicle.
Using a wrong-sized wheel is
dangerous. Braking and handling could
be affected, leading to loss of control
and an accident.
CAUTION
A wrong-sized wheel may adversely
affect:
 Tire fit
 Wheel and bearing life
 Ground clearance
 Snow-chain clearance
 Speedometer calibration
 Headlight aim
 Bumper height
 Tire Pressure Monitoring System
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
will appear as a solid band across the
tread.

Replace the tire when this happens.
1. New tread
2. Worn tread
3. Tread wear indicator

You should replace the tire before the
band crosses the entire tread.
NOTE
Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used on the road. It
is recommended that tires generally be
replaced when they are 6 years or
older. Heat caused by hot climates or
frequent high loading conditions can
accelerate the aging process. You
should replace the spare tire when you
replace the other road tires due to the
aging of the spare tire. The period in
which the tire was manufactured (both
week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit
number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on page 10-30.
Replacing Light Bulbs
All the light bulbs are the LED type.
The LED bulb cannot be replaced as a
single unit because it is an integrated
unit.
The LED bulb has to be replaced with
the unit. If a replacement is necessary,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Adjusting the Headlight Aim
If the headlight cannot be adjusted
using procedure below, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
1. Make sure the vehicle has a fulltank of gasoline and the area
around the headlight is not
deformed.
2. Park the vehicle on level ground.
3. Sit in the driver's seat.
4. Bounce the vehicle several times.
5. Using a Phillips-head screw-driver, turn bolt A in either direction.
Remember the turning direction
and the number of turns.
6. Turn bolt B the same number of turns and in the same direction as
step 5.

1. Adjustment bolt A
2. Adjustment bolt B
