Owner Maintenance

Engine Oil

 


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

Brake/Clutch Fluid

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.

Battery Recharging

 


  • Before performing maintenance or recharging the battery, turn off all accessories and stop the engine.

  • To disconnect the battery, remove the negative lead first. Install it last when connecting the battery.

  • Be sure to remove the caps before recharging the battery.

  • (With i-stop system)

    Do not quick-charge the battery.

  • If the battery quickly discharges because, for example, the lights were left on too long with the engine off, slow-charge it as required by battery size and charger capacity.

  • If the battery gradually discharges because of high electric load while the vehicle is being used, recharge it as required by battery size and charger capacity.
