Remarks:
*1 The engine oil and filter must be changed at least once a year or within
16,000 km (10,000 miles) since last
engine oil and filter change. The system must be reset whenever replacing the
engine oil regardless of the
message/wrench indicator light display.
*2 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.
*3 According to state/provincial and federal 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.
*4 The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) initialization must be performed so that the system operates normally (if equipped).
U.S.A. residents - Fixed maintenance interval
