When carrying a child
Seat a child on the rear seat whenever
possible and make sure that the seat
belt is fastened:
For a child who cannot wear the seat
belt correctly because the shoulder
belt contacts the neck or face or the
lap belt does not fit securely around
the pelvis, use a child-restraint system
appropriate to the child’s age and body
size. Do not allow a child to stand in
front of an air bag or sit on the seat
incorrectly. Otherwise, the child may
receive a strong impact from a
deploying air bag which could result in
serious injury or death.
In addition, placing a child on a
passenger's lap is dangerous. The child
cannot be supported during sudden
braking or a collision and could be
thrown out or crushed, resulting in
serious injury or death.
Important and Useful Information to Know Before Using the Vehicle

Do not let a child put a hand or head
out of the window:
Be careful not to let a child put a hand
or head out of the window while
driving the vehicle. If the child's hand
or head hits something outside the
vehicle or sudden braking is applied, it
could result in serious injury or death.
Never leave a child alone in the
vehicle:
¾Otherwise, an unattended child
could operate equipment, accelerate
the vehicle, or cause a fire, resulting
in an accident.
¾The temperature inside the cabin
could become extremely hot and
cause the child to become
dehydrated. If the symptoms worsen,
it could cause brain damage or result
in serious injury or death.
Luggage
Never hang heavy or sharp objects on
the assist grips and coat hooks:
Using a coat hanger when hanging
clothing is dangerous as it can be
knocked o and hit an occupant in the
cabin if a curtain air bag was to deploy,
which could result in serious injury or
death.
Never hang objects on levers such as
the wiper lever, direction indicator
lever, or selector lever:
Hanging objects on levers such as the
wiper lever, direction indicator lever,
or selector lever is dangerous as it the
lever could switch to an unintended
lever position due to acceleration/
deceleration, vibration, or impact
while driving the vehicle, resulting in
an accident.
Do not directly load luggage on the
roof:
Do not directly load luggage on the
roof. Otherwise, the luggage may
collapse resulting in an accident.
Do not carry flammable material or
hazardous objects:
Do not carry containers filled with fuel
or spray cans. Otherwise, it could lead
to an explosion or fire.
Do not place anything in the driver's
foot well:
Placing things in the driver's foot well
is dangerous. If something becomes
lodged under the brake or accelerator
pedal, the pedals cannot be operated
correctly, which could lead to an
accident.
Driving the vehicle
Do not shift the selector lever to the
neutral position while driving:
Otherwise, it will result in the loss of
the regenerative braking and could
cause an accident.
Carefully drive the vehicle on
expressways and slippery roads:
Do not suddenly accelerate or brake,
turn the steering wheel abruptly, or use
regeneration braking (minus switch (–))
when driving at high speeds or on wet
roads, icy roads, or snow-covered
roads. Otherwise, the tyres will slip
which could lead to an accident. In
addition, if the vehicle is driven on wet
roads at high speeds, a water film
between the tyre and the road surface
could be formed, resulting in the tyres
lifting from the road (hydroplaning
phenomenon). Drive the vehicle at a
reduced speed.
Important and Useful Information to Know Before Using the Vehicle

Do not drive the vehicle on flooded
roads:
Do not drive the vehicle on flooded
roads as it could cause short circuiting
of the electrical/electronic parts or
damage the EV system. If the vehicle
has been immersed in water, always
consult an Mazda Repairer.
Carefully drive the vehicle in strong
crosswinds:
If the vehicle moves sideways due to
strong crosswinds, gradually decelerate
the vehicle while grasping the steering
wheel. Be particularly careful of tunnel
exits, areas on bridges, and roads
carved into mountains where
crosswinds occur easily. Otherwise,
you may lose control of the vehicle
resulting in an accident.
Do not drive with your foot held on
the brake pedal:
¾Otherwise, the brake parts will wear
out more quickly.
¾The brakes can overheat and
adversely aect brake performance.
Make various adjustments while the
vehicle is stopped:
If you try to adjust the seat, steering
wheel, or mirrors while driving the
vehicle, it could disrupt your driving
posture or view and distract your
attention from the road ahead, leading
to an accident.
Do not recline the seatback
excessively:
If your body slides under the seat belt,
the seat belt cannot function at its full
capacity during emergency braking or
in a collision, which could result in a
serious accident, injury or death.
Parking the vehicle
Before leaving the vehicle, shift the
selector lever to the P position and
apply the parking brake:
Not applying the parking brake when
parking the vehicle is dangerous as the
vehicle may move unexpectedly and
result in an accident. Before leaving the
vehicle, shift the selector lever to the P
position, apply the parking brake, and
make sure that the Electric Parking
Brake (EPB) indicator light in the
instrument cluster turns on. When
parking the vehicle on a slope, use
wheel blocks if necessary.
When parking under direct sunlight,
do not store glasses or lighters in the
vehicle:
A lens of a pair of glasses could focus
sunlight in one place and cause
ignition of flammable objects or the
vehicle cabin temperature could
become hot and cause a lighter to
explode which could cause a fire.
Do not nap in the vehicle with the EV
system operating:
The selector lever could be shifted
unconsciously or the accelerator pedal
could be depressed causing the vehicle
to move, resulting in an accident.
Important and Useful Information to Know Before Using the Vehicle

What to do after an accident
Always have your vehicle inspected by
an Mazda Repairer if the vehicle has
been involved in an accident:
If the vehicle has been involved in an
accident, and even if the air bags did
not deploy in the accident, the air
bag-related parts might be damaged
by the impact to the vehicle in the
accident, and the air bags may not
deploy normally, which could result in
serious injury or death. If seat belts
with the pretensioner system and seat
belts with the load-limiter system that
have operated (deployed) are used
under such a condition, they cannot
function at their full capacity which
could result in serious injury or death.
Vehicle maintenance and scrapping
When replacing the tyres, replace
them with ones of the specified type
and size:
If tyres other than the specified type
and size are installed, vehicle systems
will not operate normally due to the
driving stability being adversely
aected, which could lead to an
accident.
Adjust the tyre pressures to the
specified value and do not use tyres
with worn tyre grooves:
If the vehicle is driven with tyres that
are not at the specified air pressure or
with worn tyre grooves, vehicle systems
will not operate normally which could
cause an accident.
Always consult an Mazda Repairer
when scrapping the vehicle:
The air bag and pretensioner system
mechanisms may operate (deploy)
unexpectedly, which could result in
serious injury or death.
CAUTION
¾Use of Mazda genuine floor
coverings is recommended.
Use the floor coverings made for the
vehicle and do not use an over-sized
floor covering.
Always heed the following
precautions when using floor
coverings.
¾Do not use floor coverings stacked
on top of each other.
¾Use only floor coverings secured
firmly with hooks on the floor
carpet.
Otherwise, the floor covering may
slide or a pedal may get caught on
the floor covering and the pedal
operation could be obstructed
leading to an accident.
Important and Useful Information to Know Before Using the Vehicle

¾Because the brake pads become wet
after driving through water puddles
or washing the vehicle, the brake
performance could be adversely
aected or only the side where the
brakes did not get wet will be
applied, resulting in loss of steering
wheel control. If the brakes do not
operate normally, release the
accelerator pedal and lightly apply
the brakes several times while driving
the vehicle to dry the brakes until
they return to normal.
¾Be very careful not to damage the
vehicle's undercarriage, such as the
bumpers, when driving under the
following conditions:
¾Parking in a parking space with
speed bumps
¾Parking on the shoulder of a road
¾Crossing over dierences in road
level such as at the shoulder of a
road
¾Entering/exiting a steep slope such
as at the entrance/exit of a parking
lot
¾Driving on bumpy or rutted roads
¾Always start the EV system even
when slightly moving the vehicle. If
the vehicle moves on a downslope
by the inclination, the steering wheel
could lock or the brakes may not
operate normally, resulting in an
accident.
¾If the steering wheel is kept turned
completely to the left or right for
long periods, it could damage the
power steering equipment.
¾Apply the parking brake, switch the
power switch OFF, and lock all the
doors before leaving the vehicle. In
addition, to prevent theft of
valuables, do not leave them inside
the cabin.
Important and Useful Information to Know Before Using the Vehicle

NOTE
xIf the brake pedal is continuously
depressed on a slope, the brakes
could overheat and adversely aect
brake performance.
When driving on downslopes,
operate the regeneration braking and
the foot brake together.
xAlways depress the brake pedal with
your right foot. Applying the brakes
with the left foot could slow your
reaction time to an emergency
situation resulting in insucient
braking operation.
xWear appropriate shoes for driving to
avoid your shoe contacting the brake
pedal when depressing the
accelerator pedal.
xFirmly depress the brake pedal to
keep the vehicle stopped, and if
necessary, apply the parking brake.
xAlways confirm the safety around the
vehicle before starting to drive the
vehicle.
xAfter stopping at a trac light or
before leaving a parking space,
always check the safety around the
vehicle before starting to drive the
vehicle.
xIf the visibility behind the vehicle is
poor while reversing, get out of the
