NOTE
Changing the engine oil should be done by an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer.
▼ Recommended Oil
In order to follow the maintenance interval (page 6-3) and to protect the engine from
damage caused by poor lubrication, it is vitally important to make use of engine oil with the
correct specification. Do not use oils which do not meet the specification and requirements
listed. Use of unsuitable oil may lead to engine damage which is not covered by the Mazda
Warranty.
Engine oil viscosity, or thickness, has an effect on fuel economy and cold-weather operation
(starting and oil flow).
Low-viscosity engine oils can provide improved fuel economy and cold-weather
performance.
ACEA C3
Use ACEA C3
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 specific temperature ranges could
result in engine damage.
SKYACTIV-D 2.2 uses specified oil. Please confirm the specification in owner's manual. If
engine oil other than the specified oil is used, the Diesel Particulate Filter effective period of
use will be shortened or the Diesel Particulate Filter may be damaged.
