A rear passenger or luggage pushing
or pulling down on the front
passenger seatback.
 Luggage or other items are placed on
the seatback or hung on the head
restraint.
 The seat is washed.
 Liquids are spilled on the seat.
 The front passenger seat is moved
backward, pushing into luggage or
other items placed behind it.
 The front passenger seatback
contacts the rear seat.
 Luggage or other items are placed
between the front passenger seat
and driver seat.
 An electric device is put on the front
passenger's seat.
 An additional electrical device, such
as a seat warmer is installed to the
surface of the front passenger seat.
 Any accessories, which might
increase the total seated weight on
the front passenger seat, are
attached to the front passenger seat.
The designated positions with seat
belts on the rear seats are the safest
places for children. Always use seat
belts and child restraints.Do not allow a child or anyone to
lean over to or against the side
window of a vehicle with side and
curtain air bags:
It is dangerous to allow anyone to lean
over to or against the side window, the
area of the front passenger seat, the
front and rear window pillars and the
roof edge along both sides from which
the side and curtain air bags deploy,
even if a child-restraint system is used.
The impact of inflation from a side or
curtain air bag could cause serious
injury or death to an out of position
child. Furthermore, leaning over to or
against the door could block the side
and curtain air bags and eliminate the
advantages of supplemental
protection. Because the front seats are
equipped with fron t air bags, the rear
seat is always a better location for
children. Take special care not to allow
a child to lean over to or against the
side window, even if the child is seated
in a child-restraint system.
Never use one seat belt on more than
one person at a time:
Using one seat belt for more than one
person at a time is dangerous. A seat
belt used in this way cannot spread the
impact forces properly and the two
passengers could be crushed together
and seriously injured or even killed.
Never use one belt for more than one
person at a time and always operate
the vehicle with each occupant
properly restrained.

Fuel and Engine Exhaust Precautions
▼Fuel Requirements
Vehicles with catalytic converters or oxygen sensors must use ONLY UNLEADED
FUEL, which will reduce exhaust emissions and keep spark plug fouling to a
minimum.

To achieve maximum engine performance, use the
specified fuel.
Fuel
Octane Rating*1 (Anti-knock index)
Regular unleaded fuel 87 [(R+M)/2 method] or above (91 RON or above)
*1 U.S. federal law requires that octane ratings be posted on gas station pumps.
Fuel with a rating lower than 87 octane (91 RON) will negatively affect the emission
control system performance and could also cause engine knocking and serious
engine damage.
CAUTION
USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL.
Leaded fuel is harmful to the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors and will lead
to deterioration of the emission control system and or failures.
 This vehicle can only use oxygenated fuel s containing no more than 10 % ethanol
by volume. Damage to the vehicle may occur when ethanol exceeds this
recommendation, or if the gasoline contains any methanol. Stop using gasohol of
any kind if your vehicle engine is performing poorly.
 Never add fuel system additives other th an a Mazda genuine product, otherwise
the emission control system could be damaged. Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer for details.
Gasoline blended with oxygenates such as alcohol or ether compounds are generally
referred to as oxygenated fuels. The common gasoline blend that can be used with
your vehicle is ethanol blended at no more than 10 %. Gasoline containing alcohol,
such as ethanol or methanol, may be marketed under the name "Gasohol".

Vehicle damage and drivability problems resulting from the use of the following may
not be covered by the warranty.
Gasohol containing more than 10 % ethanol.Gasoline or gasohol containing methanol.Leaded fuel or leaded gasohol.

Moonroof*
▼Moonroof
The moonroof can be opened or
closed when operating the overhead
tilt/slide switch at the front seats.
WARNING
Do not let passengers stand up or
extend part of the body through the
open moonroof while the vehicle is
moving:
Extending the head, arms, or other
parts of the body through the
moonroof is dangerous. The head or
arms could hit something while the
vehicle is moving. This could cause
serious injury or death.
Never allow children to play with the
tilt/slide switch:
The tilt/slide switch would allow
children to operate the moonroof
unintentionally, which could result in
serious injury if a child's hands, head
or neck becomes caught by the
moonroof.
Make sure the opening is clear before
closing the moonroof:
A closing moonroof is dangerous. The
hands, head, or even neck of a person,
especially a child, could be caught in it
as it closes, causing serious injury or
even death.
Make sure nothing blocks the
moonroof just before it reaches the
fully closed position:
Blocking the moonroof just before it
reaches the closed position is
dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function
cannot prevent the moonroof from
closing. If fingers are caught, serious
injuries could occur.
CAUTION

Do not sit on or put heavy items on
the area where the moonroof opens
and closes. Otherwise, the
moonroof could be damaged.
 Do not open or close the moonroof
forcefully during freezing
temperatures or snowfall. Otherwise,
the moonroof could be damaged.
 The sunshade does not tilt. To avoid
damaging the sunshade, do not push
it up.
 Do not close the sunshade while the
moonroof is opening. Trying to force
the sunshade closed could damage
it.
