WARNING

Do not perform maintenance work if you lack suf

¿ cient knowledge and experience

or the proper tools and equipment to do the work. Have maintenance work done by a
quali

¿ ed technician:

Performing maintenance work on a vehicle is dangerous if not done properly. You can
be seriously injured while performing some maintenance procedures.
If you must run the engine while working under the bonnet, make certain that you
remove all jewellery (especially rings, bracelets, watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar loose clothing before getting near the engine or cooling
fan which may turn on unexpectedly:
Working under the bonnet with the engine running is dangerous. It becomes even more
dangerous when you wear jewellery or loose clothing.
Either can become entangled in moving parts and result in injury.

Pull over to a safe location, then switch the ignition off and make sure the fan is
not running before attempting to work near the cooling fan:
Working near the cooling fan when it is running is dangerous. The fan could continue
running inde

¿ nitely even if the engine has stopped and the engine compartment

temperature is high. You could be hit by the fan and seriously injured.
Do not leave items in the engine compartment:
After you have

¿ nished checking or doing servicing in the engine compartment, do not

forget and leave items such as tools or rags in the engine compartment.
Tools or other items left in the engine compartment could cause engine damage or a

¿ re

leading to an unexpected accident.

Maintenance and Care

Owner Maintenance

Engine oil viscosity, or thickness, has an effect on fuel economy and cold-weather operation
(starting and oil

À ow).

Low-viscosity engine oils can provide improved fuel economy and cold-weather
performance.
When choosing an oil, consider the temperature range your vehicle will operate in before
the next oil change.
Then select the recommended viscosity from the chart.

CAUTION

Using oils of viscosity besides those recommended for speci

¿ c temperature ranges

could result in engine damage.

(SKYACTIV-D 1.5)

SKYACTIV-D 1.5 uses speci

¿ ed oil. Please con¿ rm the speci¿ cation in owner's

manual. If engine oil other than the speci

¿ ed oil is used, the Diesel Particulate

Filter effective period of use will be shortened or the Diesel Particulate Filter may
be damaged.

6–26

Maintenance and Care

Owner Maintenance

NOTE

(SKYACTIV-G 1.3 and SKYACTIV-G 1.5)

It is normal for all engines to consume engine oil under normal driving conditions.

Engine oil consumption may be as high as 0.8 L/1,000 km (1 L/800 miles). This may

be as a result of evaporation, internal ventilation or burning of the lubricating oil in
the working engine. Oil consumption may be higher when the engine is new due to
the running-in process. Oil consumption is also dependant on engine speed and engine
load. Under extreme driving conditions, oil consumption may be higher.

(SKYACTIV-D 1.5)

Whenever the engine oil is replaced, the vehicles engine control unit needs to be

reset as soon as possible. Otherwise the wrench indicator light or engine oil warning
light may turn on. To reset the engine control unit, consult an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer or refer to the vehicle engine control unit
reset procedure on page 6-27 .

Inspect the engine oil level periodically. When inspecting the engine oil, if the engine

oil level is exceeds the “X” mark on the dipstick, replace the engine oil. This should
be done by an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer. When
replacing the engine oil, inspect the oil level using the oil dipstick and re

¿ ll so that the

engine oil level is within the range between MIN and MAX as shown in the

¿ gure.

À exible maintenance setting

is selected.

After replacing the engine oil, have a repair shop such as an Authorised Mazda Repairer
perform the initialization (engine oil data resetting) of the recorded value. If the value
recorded by the computer is not initialized, the wrench indicator light may not turn off or it
may turn on earlier than normal.

NOTE

The initialization (engine oil data resetting) of the recorded value can be performed using
the following procedure:

1. Switch the ignition OFF.
2. Switch the ignition ON with the selector pressed, and press and hold the selector for

about 5 seconds until the master warning light

À ashes.

NOTE

(SKYACTIV-D 1.5)
When inspecting the engine oil level,
pull out the dipstick straight without
twisting. In addition, when inserting
the dipstick, always insert it without
twisting so that the “X” mark faces the
front of the vehicle.

5. Pull it out again and examine the level.

The level is normal if it is between the
MIN and MAX marks.

If it is near or below MIN, add enough
oil to bring the level to MAX.

CAUTION

Do not over

¿ ll the engine oil. This may

cause engine damage.

6. Make sure the O-ring on the dipstick is

positioned properly before reinserting
the dipstick.

7. Reinsert the dipstick fully.

Engine Coolant

Inspecting Coolant Level

WARNING

Do not use a match or live

À ame in the

engine compartment. DO NOT ADD
COOLANT WHEN THE ENGINE IS
HOT:
A hot engine is dangerous. If the
engine has been running, parts of the
engine compartment can become very
hot. You could be burned. Carefully
inspect the engine coolant in the
coolant reservoir, but do not open it.

Pull over to a safe location, then
switch the ignition off and make sure
the fan is not running before
attempting to work near the cooling
fan:
Working near the cooling fan when it
is running is dangerous. The fan could
continue running inde

¿ nitely even if

the engine has stopped and the engine
compartment temperature is high. You
could be hit by the fan and seriously
injured.

Do not remove either
cooling system cap when the engine
and radiator are hot:
When the engine and radiator are hot,
scalding coolant and steam may shoot
out under pressure and cause serious
injury.

NOTE

Changing the coolant should be done
by an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.

Inspect the antifreeze protection and
coolant level in the coolant reservoir at
least once a year—at the beginning of
the winter season—and before travelling
where temperatures may drop below
freezing.
Inspect the condition and connections of
all cooling system and heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.

6–30

Maintenance and Care

The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the F or FULL and
L marks on the coolant reservoir when the
engine is cool.

If it is at or near L, add enough coolant to
the coolant reservoir to provide freezing
and corrosion protection and to bring the
level to F or FULL.
Securely tighten the coolant reservoir tank
cap after adding coolant.

CAUTION

Radiator coolant will damage paint.

Rinse it off quickly if spilled.

Use only soft (demineralised) water

in the coolant mixture. Water that
contains minerals will cut down on
the coolant's effectiveness.

Do not add only water. Always add a

proper coolant mixture.

The engine has aluminium parts and

must be protected by an ethylene-
glycol-based coolant to prevent
corrosion and freezing.

DO NOT USE coolants Containing

Alcohol, methanol, Borate or
Silicate.

These coolants could damage the

cooling system.

DO NOT MIX alcohol or methanol

with the coolant. This could damage
the cooling system.

Do not use a solution that contains

more than 60% antifreeze.

This would reduce effectiveness.

If the “FL22” mark is shown on or

near the cooling system cap, use
of FL-22 is recommended when
replacing engine coolant. Using
engine coolant other than FL-22 may
cause serious damage to the engine
and cooling system.

6–31

Maintenance and Care

Owner Maintenance

If the coolant reservoir is empty or new
coolant is required frequently, consult
an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.

Brake/Clutch Fluid

Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid

Level

WARNING

If the brake/clutch

À uid level is low,

have the brakes inspected:
A low brake/clutch

À uid level is

dangerous.
A low level could indicate brake lining
wear or a brake system leak which
could cause the brakes to fail and lead
to an accident.

The brakes and clutch draw

À uid from the

same reservoir.
Inspect the

À uid level in the reservoir

regularly. It should be kept between the
MAX and MIN lines.
The level normally drops with
accumulated distance, a condition
associated with wear of brake and clutch
linings. If it is excessively low, have the
brake/clutch system inspected by an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer.

windscreen, it will dirty the windscreen,
affect your visibility, and could result in
an accident.

Inspect

À uid level in the washer À uid

reservoir; add

À uid if necessary.

E


Use plain water if washer

À uid is

unavailable.
But use only washer

À uid in cold weather

to prevent it from freezing.

NOTE

Body Lubrication

All moving points of the body, such as
door and bonnet hinges and locks, should
be lubricated each time the engine oil is
changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on
locks during cold weather.
Make sure the bonnet's secondary latch
keeps the bonnet from opening when the
primary latch is released.

Wiper Blades

CAUTION

Hot waxes applied by automatic car

washers have been known to affect
the wiper's ability to clean windows.

To prevent damage to the wiper

blades, do not use petrol, paraf

¿ n,

paint thinner, or other solvents on or
near them.

When the wiper lever is in the

AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON, the wipers may move
automatically in the following cases:

If the windscreen above the rain

sensor is touched.

If the windscreen above the rain

sensor is wiped with a cloth.

If the windscreen is struck with a

hand or other object.

If the rain sensor is struck with a

hand or other object from inside
the vehicle.

Be careful not to pinch hands or

¿ ngers as it may cause injury, or
damage the wipers. When washing or
servicing the vehicle, make sure the
wiper lever is in the OFF position.

Contamination of either the windscreen or
the blades with foreign matter can reduce
wiper effectiveness. Common sources are
insects, tree sap, and hot wax treatments
used by some commercial car washes.
If the blades are not wiping properly,
clean the window and blades with a good
cleaner or mild detergent; then rinse
thoroughly with clean water. Repeat if
necessary.
