MaintenanceBecause your Mazda is a large piece of intricate machinery, it needs regular care in the form of maintenance
and servicing. Many owners prefer to do much of this work themselves.
So Section 8 has been prepared as a guide for the operator who wants to self-service such minor jobs\
as
changing the engine oil, replacing bulbs and wiper blades, charging the battery, and rotating the tires. All
maintenance schedules are included, along with instructions on how to make regular inspections of such things
as fluid levels.Introduction 8- 2

If new coolant is required frequently,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
CAUTION
!
Radiator coolant will damage
paint. Rinse it off quickly.NOTEMixing green coolant with orange

083-11DE
Changing coolant
Change coolant according to
Scheduled Maintenance (page 8-3).
CAUTION
!
• Use only soft (demineralized)
water in the coolant mixture.
Water that contains minerals
will cut down on the coolant’ s
effectiveness.
• Don’ t add only water. Always
add a proper coolant mixture.
CAUTION
!
• The engine has aluminum parts
and must be protected by an
ethylene-glycol-based coolant
to prevent corrosion and
freezing.
• DO NOT USE alcohol or
methanol antifreeze. DO NOT
MIX alcohol or methanol with
the coolant. This could damage
the cooling system.
• Don’ t use a solution that
contains more than 60 percent
antifreeze.
This would reduce
effectiveness.
