miles) may add to the performance,
economy, and life of the vehicle.
•Do not race the engine.

either slow or fast, for a long period of
time.
•Do not drive constantly at full-throttle or
high engine rpm for extended periods of
time.
•Avoid unnecessary hard stops.
•Avoid full-throttle starts.
•Do not tow a trailer.
Saving Fuel and Protection of the Environment
How you operate your Mazda determines
how far it will travel on a tank of fuel. Use
these suggestions to help save fuel and
reduce CO
2.
•Avoid long warm-ups. Once the engine
runs smoothly, begin driving.
•Avoid fast starts.
•Drive at lower speeds.
•Anticipate when to apply the brakes
(avoid sudden braking).
•Follow the maintenance schedule (page
6-3) and have an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer perform inspections and
servicing.
•Use the air conditioner only when
necessary.
•Slow down on rough roads.
•Keep the tyres properly inflated.

and headwinds.
WA R N I N G
Never stop the engine when going down a
hill:
Stopping the engine when going down a
hill is dangerous. This causes the loss of
power steering and power brake control,
and may cause damage to the drivetrain.
Any loss of steering or braking control
could cause an accident.

•When replacing the tyres, consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer. Replacing the tyres could result in deviation of the guide lines which appear on
the display.
•If the vehicle's front, side, or rear has been involved in a collision, the alignment of the
rear view parking camera (location, installation angle) may have deviated. Always
consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer to have the
vehicle inspected.
•If “No Video Signal Available” is indicated in the display, there could be a problem with
the camera. Have your vehicle inspected at an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
•(Predicted vehicle path assist lines display type)
If force is applied to the steering wheel, the guide lines may not display. Loosen your grip
on the steering wheel to allow the guide lines to display.

Use only a Mazda-genuine tyre valve cap:
Use of a non-genuine part is dangerous as
the correct tyre air pressure cannot be
maintained if the tyre valve becomes
damaged. If the vehicle is driven under this
condition, the tyre air pressure will
decrease which could result in a serious
accident. Do not use any part for the tyre
valve cap that is not a Mazda-genuine
part.
Inspect all tyre pressures monthly
(including the spare
*) when the tyres are
cold. Maintain recommended pressures for
the best ride, handl ing, and minimum tyre
wear.
Refer to the specification charts (page 9-
9).
NOTE
•Always check tyre pressure when tyres
are cold.
•Warm tyres normally exceed
recommended pressures. Do not release
air from warm tyres to adjust the
pressure.
•Underinflation can cause reduced fuel
economy, uneven and accelerated tyre
wear, and poor sealing of the tyre bead,
which will deform the wheel and cause
separation of tyre from rim.
•Overinflation can produce a harsh ride,
uneven and accelerated tyre wear, and a
greater possibility of damage from road
hazards.
Keep your tyre pressure at the correct
levels. If one frequently needs inflating,
have it inspected.
▼ Tyre Rotation
WA R N I N G
Rotate tyres periodically:
Irregular tyre wear is dangerous. To
equalize tread wear for maintaining good
performance in handling and braking,
rotate the tyres every 10,000 km (6,250
miles), or sooner if irregular wear develops.
During rotation, inspect them for correct
balance.
NOTE
(Without temporary spare tyre)
Because your vehicle is not equipped with
a spare tyre, you cannot do a tyre rotation
safely with the jack
that comes with your
vehicle. Have an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer perform tyre rotation.

Do not include (TEMPORARY USE
ONLY) spare tyre in rotation.
Forward
Also, inspect them for uneven wear and
damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused
by one or a combination of the following:

•Incorrect tyre pressure
•Improper wheel alignment
•Out-of-balance wheel
