Cell Phones Warning
▼Cell Phones Warning
WARNING
Please comply with the legal
regulations concerning the use of
communication equipment in vehicles
in your country:
Use of any electrical devices such as
cell phones, computers, portable
radios, vehicle navigation or other
devices by the driver while the vehicle
is moving is dangerous. Dialing a
number on a cell phone while driving
also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of

be distracted and could lead to a
serious accident. If a passenger is
unable to use the device, pull
off the
right-of-way to a safe area before use.
If use of a cell phone is necessary
despite this warning, use a hands-free
system to at least leave the hands free
to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell
phone or other electrical devices while
the vehicle is moving and, instead,
concentrate on the full-time job of
driving.

Event Data Recorder
(U.S.A. and Canada)
▼ Event Data Recorder
This vehicle is equipped with an event
data recorder (EDR). The main
purpose of an EDR is to record, in
certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle,
data that will assist in understanding
how a vehicle’s systems performed.
The EDR is designed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time,
typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in
this vehicle is designed to record such
data as:
How various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
Whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were buckled/
fastened;
How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal; and,
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE :
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a non-trivial crash or near
crash-like situation occurs; no data are
recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal
data (e.g., name, gender, age, and
crash location) are recorded. However,
other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR
data with the type of personally
identifying data routinely acquired
during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR,
special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is
needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the special
equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the
EDR.

Mazda will not disclose any of the data
recorded in an EDR to a third party
unless:
A written agreement from the vehicle
owner or the lessee is obtained
O fficially requested by the police or
other law enforcement authorities
Used as a defense for Mazda in a
lawsuit, claim, or arbitration
Ordered by a judge or court
However, if necessary Mazda will:
Use the data for research on Mazda
vehicle performance, including
safety.
Disclose the data or the summarized
data to a third party for research
purposes without disclosing vehicle
or owner identi fication information.

Uniform Tire Quality
Grading System (UTQGS)
▼ Uniform Tire Quality Grading
System (UTQGS)
This information relates to the tire
grading system developed by the U.S.
National Highway
Traffic Safety
Administration for grading tires by
tread wear, traction, and temperature
performance.
▼ Trea d Wea r
The tread wear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the
tire when tested under controlled
conditions on a speci
fied government
test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would
wear one-and-a-half times as well on
the government course as a tire graded
100.

The relative performance of tires
depends upon the actual conditions of
their use, however, and may depart
signi ficantly from the norm because of
variations in driving habits, service
practices and di fferences in road
characteristics and climate.
▼ Traction-AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These
grades represent the tire's ability to
stop on wet pavement as measured
under controlled conditions on
speci
fied government test surfaces of
asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C
may have poor traction performance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire
is based on braking (straight ahead)
traction tests and does not include
acceleration cornering (turning),
hydroplaning , or peak traction
characteristics.
▼ Temperature-A, B, C
The temperature grades A (the
highest), B, and C, represent the tire's
resistance to the generation of heat
and its ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions on
a specified indoor laboratory test
wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause
the material of the tire to degenerate
and reduce tire life, and excessive
temperatures can lead to sudden tire
failure.

Grade C corresponds to a level of
performance which all passenger
vehicle tires must meet under the
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
No. 109. Grades B and A represent
higher levels of performance on the
laboratory test wheel than the
minimum required by law.

WARNING
Keep your vehicle's tires properly
inflated and not overloaded:
Driving with improperly inflated or
overloaded tires is dangerous.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or
excessive loading, either separately or
in combination, can cause heat
buildup and possible tire failure. The
temperature grade for this tire is
established for a tire that is properly
in flated and not overloaded.

These grades will be added to the
sidewalls of passenger vehicle tires
over the next several years according to
a schedule established by the NHTSA
and the tire manufacturers.

The grade of tires available as standard
or optional equipment on Mazda
vehicles may vary with respect to
grade.

ALL PASSENGER VEHICLE TIRES MUST
CONFORM TO THESE GRADES AND
TO ALL OTHER FEDERAL TIRE -SAFETY
REQUIREMENTS.
▼ UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY

Quality grades can be found where
applicable on the tire sidewall
between tread shoulder and maximum
section width.

Tire Labeling
▼Tire Labeling
Federal law requires tire manufacturers
to place standardized information on
the sidewall of all tires. This
information identi
fies and describes
the fundamental characteristics of the
tire and also provides a tire
identi fication number for safety
standard certi fication and in case of a
recall.
