Mirrors
Before driving, adjust the inside and
outside mirrors.
▼Outside Mirrors
WA R N I N G
Be sure to look over your shoulder before
changing lanes:
Changing lanes without taking into
account the actual distance of the vehicle
in the convex mirror is dangerous. You
could have a serious accident. What you
see in the convex mirror is closer than it
appears.
Mirror type
Flat type (driver's side)
Flat surface mirror.
Convex type (front passenger side)
The mirror has single curvature on its
surface.
Power mirror adjustment
The ignition must be switched to ACC or
ON position.

To adjust:
1. Rotate the mirror
switch to the left
or
right
to choose the left or right side
mirror.
2. Press the mirror switch in the appropriate direction.
Center position
Mirror switch
After adjusting the m irror, lock the control
by rotating the switch in the center
position.
Folding mirror
WA R N I N G
Always return the outside mirrors to the
driving position before you start driving:
Driving with the outside mirrors folded in is
dangerous. Your rear view will be
restricted, and you could have an accident.
Manually fold the outside mirror rearward
until it is flush w ith the vehicle.

▼Rearview Mirror
WA R N I N G
Do not stack cargo or objects higher than
the seatbacks:
Cargo stacked higher than the seatbacks is
dangerous. It can block your view in the
rearview mirror, which might cause you to
hit another car when changing lanes.
Rearview mirror adjustment
Before driving, adjust
the rearview mirror
to center on the scene through the rear
window.

NOTE
For the manual day/night mirror, perform
the adjustment with the day/night lever in
the day position.
Reducing glare from headlights
Manual day/night mirror
Push the day/night lever forward for day
driving. Pull it back to reduce glare of
headlights from vehicles at the rear.

Day/Night lever
Day
Night
Auto-dimming mirror
The auto-dim ming mirror automatically
reduces the glare of headlights from
vehicles at the rear when the ignition is
switched ON.
NOTE
•Do not use glass cleaner or suspend
objects on or around the light sensor.
Otherwise, light sensor sensitivity will
be affected and may not operate
normally.

Light sensor
•The auto-dimming function is canceled
when the ignition is switched ON and
the selector lever is in reverse (R).

Rocking the Vehicle
WA R N I N G
Do not spin the wheels at more than 56
km/h (35 mph), and do not allow anyone
to stand behind a wheel when pushing the
vehicle:
When the vehicle is stuck, spinning the
wheels at high speed is dangerous. The
spinning tire could overheat and explode.
This could cause serious injuries.
CAUTION
Too much rocking may cause engine
overheating, transaxle failure, and tire
damage.
If you must rock the vehicle to free it from
snow, sand or mud, depress the accelerator
slightly and slowly move the shift lever/
selector lever from 1 (D) to R position.
Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tire
chains, window scraper, flares, a small
shovel, jumper cables, and a small bag of
sand or salt.
Ask an Authorized Mazda Dealer to check
the following:
•Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in the
radiator.
Refer to Engine Coolant on page 6-25.
•Inspect the battery and its cables. Cold
reduces battery capacity.
•Use an engine oil appropriate for the
lowest ambient temperatures that the
vehicle will be driven in (page 6-22).
•Inspect the ignition system for damage
and loose connections.
•Use washer fluid made with
antifreeze―but do not use engine
coolant antifreeze for washer fluid (page
6-27).
NOTE
•Remove snow before driving. Snow left
on the windshield is dangerous as it
could obstruct vision.
•Do not apply excessive force to a
window scraper when removing ice or
frozen snow on the mirror glass and
windshield.
•Never use warm or hot water for
removing snow or ice from windows and
mirrors as it could result in the glass
cracking.

Active Driving Display*
Optical receiver
Mirror
Combiner
WA R N I N G
Always adjust the display brightness and position with the vehicle stopped:
Adjusting the display brightness and position wh ile driving the vehicle is dangerous as doing
so could distract your attention from the road ahead and lead to an accident.
CAUTION
 Do not try to adjust the angle or open/close the active driving display manually.
Fingerprints on the display will make it
difficult to view and using excessive force when
operating it could cause damage.
 Do not place objects in the vicinity of the acti ve driving display. The active driving display
may not operate or any interference with its operation could cause damage.
 Do not place beverages near the active driving display. If water or other liquids are splashed
on the active driving displa y, it could cause damage.
 Do not place objects above the active driving display or apply stickers to the dust-proof
sheet/optical receiver as they will cause interference.
 A sensor is integrated to control the display's luminosity. If the optical receiver is covered,
the display's luminosity will lower making the display
difficult to view.
 Do not allow intense light to hit the optical receiver. Otherwise, it could cause damage.
NOTE
•Wearing polarized sunglasses will reduce the visibility of the active driving display due to
the characteristics of the display.
•If the battery has been removed and re-installed or the battery voltage is low, the adjusted
position may deviate.

CAUTION
Do not use sharp instruments or window
cleaners with abrasives to clean the
inside of the rear window surface. They
may damage the defogger grid inside the

NOTE
•This defogger is not designed for
melting snow. If there is an
accumulation of snow on the rear
window, remove it before using the
defogger.
•The rear window defogger setting can
be changed. After changing the setting,
the rear window defogger stops
automatically after 15 minutes have
elapsed and when the ambient
temperature is high. When the ambient
temperature is low, it continues to
operate until the switch is pressed
again.
Refer to Personalization Features on
page 9-9.
