allow metal tools to contact the positive (+) or negative (-) terminal of the
lead-acid battery when working near a lead-acid battery. Do not allow the
positive (+) terminal to contact the vehicle body.
Flames and sparks near lead-acid battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas,
produced during normal lead-acid battery operation, could ignite and cause the
lead-acid battery to explode. An exploding lead-acid battery can cause serious burns
and injuries. Keep all flames including cigarettes and sparks away from lead-acid
battery cells.
Keep all flames and sparks away from lead-acid battery cells

Do not jump-start a frozen lead-acid battery or one with a low fluid level.
Jump-starting a frozen lead-acid battery or one with a low fluid level is dangerous. It
may rupture or explode, causing serious injury.
Connect the negative cable to a good ground point away from the lead-acid
battery.
Connecting the end of the second jumper cable to the negative (–) terminal of the
depleted lead-acid battery is dangerous.
A spark could cause the gas around the lead-acid battery to explode and injure
someone.
Route the jumper cables away from parts that will be moving.
Connecting a jumper cable near or to moving part (cooling fans) is dangerous. The
cable could get caught when the hybrid system starts and cause serious injury.

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

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.
