Remarks: Emission control and related systems

  • The ignition and fuel systems are highly important to the emission control system and to efficient engine operation.
  All inspections and adjustments must be made by an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorized Mazda Repairer.
  • After the prescribed period, continue to follow the described maintenance at the recommended intervals.
  • Refer below for a description of items marked* in the maintenance chart.

Remarks: Emission control and related systems

  • The ignition and fuel systems are highly important to the emission control system and to efficient engine operation. All inspections and adjustments must be made by an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorized Mazda Repairer.
  • After the prescribed period, continue to follow the described maintenance at the recommended intervals.
  • Refer below for a description of items marked* in the maintenance chart.
  *1: If the vehicle is operated primarily under any of the following conditions, replace the engine oil and oil filter more often than the recommended intervals.

  a. Driving in dusty conditions.
  b. Extended periods of idling or low speed operation.
  c. Driving for long period in cold temperatures or driving regularly at short distance only.

  *2: Also inspect and adjust the power steering and air conditioner drive belts, if installed.
  *3: If the vehicle is operated in very dusty or sandy areas, clean and if necessary, replace the air cleaner element more often than the recommended intervals.
  *4: Use FL22 type coolant in vehicles with the inscription "FL22" on the radiator cap itself or the surrounding area. Use FL22 when replacing the coolant.
  *5: According to regulations, failure to perform maintenance on these items will not void your emissions warranties. However, Mazda recommends that all maintenance services be performed at the recommended time or mileage/kilometer period to ensure long-term reliability.
  *6: If the brakes are used extensively (for example, continuous hard driving or mountain driving) or if the vehicle is operated in extremely humid climates, replace the brake fluid annually.
  *7: This is a full function check of electrical systems such as lights, wiper and washer systems (including wiper blades), and power windows.
