QuestionAnswer
What is the fan noise and slight
tapping sound I hear from the rear
of my hybrid? The fan noise comes from two fans
located inside the high voltage
battery. These fans turn on when
the battery requires cooling air.
The fan speed, and associated
noise level, will change according
to the amount of cooling required
to maintain good performance.
How far can I go in Electric Drive
if I run out of gas? Running out of gas is not
recommended. However, you may
be able to go about one mile,
driving at 30 mph (48 km/h), if the
battery has a normal state of
charge.
What is the engine oil change
service interval? The engine oil should be changed
every 10,000 miles (16,000 km)
under normal operating conditions.
See the
Scheduled maintenance
guide chapter.
Can I put E10 or E85 in my
vehicle, and how will it affect my
fuel economy? Your hybrid vehicle can use E10
(10% ethanol, 90% gasoline) fuel,
but you may notice slightly
reduced fuel economy because
ethanol contains less energy per
gallon than gasoline. Your hybrid
vehicle is not designed to use E85
(85% ethanol).
How long will my high voltage
battery last? Does it need
maintenance? The high voltage battery system is
designed to last the life of the
vehicle and requires no
maintenance.

Pressing the RESET control cycles the message center through each of
the systems being monitored. If you don’t press any button, the system
will cycle itself.
The sequence of the system check report is as follows:1. Oil life
2. Electric drive
3. Brake system
4. Liftgate and glass
5. DTE/Fuel level
Oil life
An oil change is required whenever indicated by the message center.
USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ENGINE OILS.
To reset the oil monitoring system to 100% after each oil change
(approximately 10,000 miles [16,000 km] or 12 months) perform the
following: 1. Press and release the SETUP control to display “OIL LIFE =
XXX% HOLD RESET = NEW”.
2. Press and hold the RESET control for 2 seconds and
release. Oil life is set to 100%
and “OIL LIFE SET TO 100%”
is displayed.
3. While “OIL LIFE SET TO 100%” is displayed, if a lower oil life start value is desired, press and release
the RESET control to reduce the start value. Each press of the
RESET control reduces the value by 10 percent.
Note: Oil life start value of 100% equals 10,000 miles [16,000 km] or 12
months. For example, setting oil life start value to 60% sets the oil life
start value to 6,000 miles (9,600 km) and 219 days.

LIFTGATE
• To open the liftgate window,
unlock the liftgate (with the
power door locks or the remote
entry) and push the right side
control button under the license
plate lamp shield.
• To open the liftgate, unlock the
liftgate (with the power door
locks or the remote entry) and
push the middlecontrol button
under the license plate lamp
shield.
To lock the liftgate and the liftgate window, use the power door locks.
Do not open the liftgate or liftgate glass in a garage or other enclosed
area with a low ceiling. If the liftgate glass is raised and the liftgate is
also opened, both liftgate and glass could be damaged against a low
ceiling.
Do not leave the liftgate or liftgate glass open while driving. Doing so
could cause serious damage to the liftgate and its components as well as
allowing carbon monoxide to enter the vehicle.
WARNING: Make sure that the liftgate door and/or window are
closed to prevent exhaust fumes from being drawn into the
vehicle. Exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide which can
injure your lungs and cause drowsiness and even death. This
will also prevent passengers and cargo from falling out. If you
must drive with the liftgate door or window open, keep the
vents open so outside air comes into the vehicle.

Change your engine oil and filter according to the appropriate schedule
listed inscheduled maintenance information.
When changing the oil filter on the 2.3L engine you must also replace
the filter cap O-ring. The oil filter drain plug O-ring must also be
replaced whenever the oil filter drain plug is removed. Reuse of the
O-rings may cause engine oil leakage and may result in severe engine
damage. The customer warranty may be void for any damage to the
engine if the O-rings are not replaced.
Mazda production and aftermarket (Mazda) oil filters are designed for
added engine protection and long life. If a replacement oil filter is used
that does not meet Mazda material and design specifications, start-up
engine noises or knock may be experienced.
It is recommended you use the appropriate Mazda oil filter or another
with equivalent performance for your engine application.
LOW VOLTAGE (UNDERHOOD) BATTERY
Your vehicle is equipped with a
Mazda maintenance-free battery
which normally does not require
additional water during its life of
service.
If your battery has a cover/shield, make sure it is reinstalled
after the battery has been cleaned or replaced.
For longer, trouble-free operation, keep the top of the battery clean and
dry. Also, make certain the battery cables are always tightly fastened to
the battery terminals.
If you see any corrosion on the battery or terminals, remove the cables
from the terminals and clean with a wire brush. You can neutralize the
acid with a solution of baking soda and water.
Note: Electrical or electronic accessories or components added to
the vehicle by the dealer or the owner (e.g. spot lights, electric
winch, etc.) may adversely affect vehicle performance and
durability.

Maintenance and Specifications

Mazda strongly recommends the use of genuine Mazda replacement
parts. Parts other than Mazda or Mazda authorized remanufactured parts
that are used for maintenance replacement or for the service of
components affecting emission control must be equivalent to genuine
Mazda Motor Corporation parts in performance and durability. It is the
owner’s responsibility to determine the equivalency of such parts. Please
consult yourWarranty Information Booklet for complete warranty
information.
Non-Mazda approved chemicals or additives are not required for factory
recommended maintenance. In fact, Mazda Motor Corporation
recommends against the use of such additive products unless specifically
recommended by Mazda for a particular application.
Oil, fluids and flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic
and, by itself, does not necessarily indicate a concern or that the fluid
needs to be changed. However, discolored fluids that also show signs of
overheating and/or foreign material contamination should be inspected
immediately by a qualified expert such as the factory-trained technicians
at your Mazda Dealership. Your vehicle’s oils and fluids should be
changed at the specified intervals or in conjunction with a repair.
Flushing is a viable way to change fluid for many vehicle sub-systems
during scheduled maintenance. It is critical that systems are flushed only
with new fluid that is the same as that required to fill and operate the
system, or using a Mazda-approved flushing chemical.
Engine Emissions label
Emissions information appears on the Engine Emissions label on the
underside of the hood. This decal identifies engine displacement and
provides certain engine specifications.
Any modification of the emissions control system could create liability
under federal law (U.S.) if made prior to sale and registration, under the
laws of some states if made thereafter. Further, federal law prohibits
vehicle manufacturers, dealers and other persons engaged in the
business of repairing, servicing, selling, leasing or trading motor vehicles
as well as fleet operations from knowingly removing or rendering an
emissions control system inoperative after sale and delivery to an
ultimate purchaser. In Canada, modifications of the emissions control
system could create liability under applicable federal or provincial laws.
