Reporting Safety Defects (U.S.A.)
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could
cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Mazda Motor Corporation or
your Mazda Importer/Distributor.

If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an investigation, and if it finds
that a safety defect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy
campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved in individual problems
between you, your dealer, or Mazda Motor Corporation or your Mazda Importer/
Distributor.

To contact NHTSA, you may call the Vehicle Safety Hotline toll-free at
1-888-327-4236 (TTY:1-800-424-9153); go to http://www.safercar.gov; or write
to: Administrator, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey Avenue, SE., Washington, DC, 20590.

Add-On Non-GenuineParts and Accessories
Non-genuine parts and accessories for
Mazda vehicles can be found in stores.
These may fit your vehicle, but they are
not approved by Mazda for use with
Mazda vehicles. When you install
non-genuine parts or accessories, they
could affect your vehicle's
performance or safe ty systems; the
Mazda warranty doesn't cover this.
Before you install any non-genuine
parts or accessories, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
WARNING
Always consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer before you install non-genuine
parts or accessories.
Improperly designed parts or
accessories could seriously affect your
vehicle's performance or safety
systems. This could cause you to have
an accident or increase your chances of
injuries in an accident.
Be very careful in choosing and
installing add-on electrical
equipment, such as mobile
telephones, two-way radios, stereo
systems, and car alarm systems.
Incorrectly choosing or installing
improper add-on equipment or
choosing an improper installer is
dangerous. Essential systems could be
damaged, causing engine stalling ,
air-bag (SRS) activation,
ABS/TCS/DSC inactivation, or a fire in
the vehicle.
Mazda assumes no responsibility for
death, injury, or expenses that may
result from the installation of add-on
non-genuine parts or accessories.

Cell Phones Warning
WARNING
Please comply with the legal
regulations concerning the use of
communication equipment in vehicles
in your country.
Use of any electrical devices such as
cell phones, computers, portable
radios, vehicle navigation or other
devices by the driver while the vehicle
is moving is dangerous. Dialing a
number on a cell phone while driving
also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of
these devices will cause the driver to
be distracted and could lead to a
serious accident. If a passenger is
unable to use the device, pull off the
right-of-way to a safe area before use.
If use of a cell phone is necessary
despite this warning, use a hands-free
system to at least leave the hands free
to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell
phone or other electrical devices while
the vehicle is moving and, instead,
concentrate on the full-time job of
driving.

Traction-AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These
grades represent the tire's ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on
specified government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C
may have poor traction performance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire
is based on braking (straight ahead)
traction tests and does not include
acceleration cornering (turning),
hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.
Temperature-A, B, C
The temperature grades A (the
highest), B, and C, represent the tire's
resistance to the generation of heat
and its ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions on
a specified indoor laboratory test
wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause
the material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive
temperatures can lead to sudden tire
failure.

Grade C corresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger
vehicle tires must meet under the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
No. 109. Grades B and A represent
higher levels of performance on the
laboratory test wheel than the
minimum required by law.
WARNING
Keep your vehicle's tires properly
inflated and not overloaded.
Driving with improperly inflated or
overloaded tires is dangerous.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately or
in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure. The
temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is properly
inflated and not overloaded.

These grades will be added to the
sidewalls of passenger vehicle tires
over the next several years according to
a schedule established by the NHTSA
and the tire manufacturers.

Ve h i c l e L o a d i n g
This section will guide you in the proper loading of your vehicle and/or trailer, to
keep your loaded vehicle weight within its design rating capability, with or without a
trailer. Properly loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design
performance. Before loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following
terms for determining your vehicle's weight ratings, with or without a trailer, from
the vehicle's Safety Certification Label and Tire and Load Information Label:
WARNING
Overloaded Vehicle.
Overloading a vehicle is dangerous. The results of overloading can have serious
consequences in terms of passenger sa fety. Too much weight on a vehicle's
suspension system can cause spring or shoc k absorber failure, brake failure, handling
or steering problems, irregular tire wear, tire failure or other damage.
Overloading makes a vehicle harder to drive and control. It also increases the
distance required for stopping. In cases of serious overloading , brakes can fail
completely, particularly on steep grades. The load a tire will carry safely is a
combination of the size of the tire, its load range, and corresponding inflation
pressure.
Never overload the vehicle and always observe the vehicle's weight ratings from the
vehicle's Safety Certification and Tire and Load Information labels.
Base Curb Weight is the weight of the ve hicle including a full tank of fuel and all
standard equipment. It does not include passengers, cargo, or optional
equipment.

Ve h i c l e C u r b We i g h t is the weight of your new vehicle when you picked it up from
your dealer plus any aftermarket equipment.
