CAUTION
  Always close the auxiliary jack/
USB port lid when it is not in use. If
foreign matter or liquid penetrates
the auxiliary jack/USB port, it may
cause a malfunction.
  Depending on the portable audio
device, noise may occur when the
device is connected to the vehicle
accessory socket. (If noise occurs, do
not use the accessory socket.)
NOTE
  This mode may not be usable
depending on the portable audio
device to be connected.
  Before using the auxiliary jack/USB
port, refer to the instruction manual
for the portable audio device.
  Use a commercially-available,
non-impedance (3.5

plug for connecting the portable
audio unit to the auxiliary jack.
Before using the auxiliary jack, read
the manufacturer's instructions for
connecting a portable audio unit to
the auxiliary jack.
  To prevent discharging of the battery,
do not use the auxiliary input for
long periods with the engine off or
idling.
  When connecting a device to the

Maintenance and Care
Owner Maintenance
Battery Maintenance
To get the best service from a battery:
 


 Keep it securely mounted.



 Keep the top clean and dry.



 Keep terminals and connections clean,
tight, and coated with petroleum jelly or
terminal grease.
 


 Rinse off spilled electrolyte immediately
with a solution of water and baking
soda.
 


 If the vehicle will not be used for an
extended time, disconnect the battery
leads and charge the battery every six
weeks.
Inspecting Electrolyte Level
A low level of electrolyte fl uid will cause
the battery to discharge quickly.
Upper level
Lower level
Inspect the electrolyte level at least once
a week. If it is low, remove the caps and
add enough distilled water to bring the
level between the upper and lower level
(illustration).
Do not overfi ll.
Examine the specifi c gravity of the
electrolyte with a hydrometer, especially
during cold weather. If it is low, recharge
the battery.
Battery Recharging
NOTE
  Before performing maintenance or
recharging the battery, turn off all
accessories and stop the engine.
  To disconnect the battery, remove the
negative lead fi rst. Install it last when
connecting the battery.
  Be sure to remove the caps before
recharging the battery.
 (With i-stop system) Do not quick-charge the battery.




 If the battery quickly discharges
because, for example, the lights were
left on too long with the engine off,
slow-charge it as required by battery
size and charger capacity.
 


 If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while the
vehicle is being used, recharge it as
required by battery size and charger
capacity.
Battery Replacement
Contact an Authorised Mazda Dealer for a
battery replacement purchase.

Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Signal Warning
Electronic Brake Force
Distribution System
Warning If the electronic brake force distribution control unit determines that some components
are operating incorrectly, the control unit may illuminate the brake system warning
light and the ABS warning light simultaneously. The problem is likely to be the
electronic brake force distribution system.
WARNING
Do not drive with both the ABS warning light and brake warning light
illuminated. Have the vehicle towed to an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer to have the brakes inspected as soon as possible:
Driving when the brake system warning light and ABS warning light are
illuminated simultaneously is dangerous.
When both lights are illuminated, the rear wheels could lock more quickly in an
emergency stop than under normal circumstances.
Charging System
Warning Light If the warning light illuminates while driving, it indicates a malfunction of the
alternator or of the charging system.
Drive to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way. Consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer. CAUTION
Do not continue driving when the charging system warning light is illuminated
because the engine could stop unexpectedly.
