Fuel and Engine Exhaust Precautions
▼ Fuel Requirements
The vehicle will operate efficiently on diesel fuel with specification EN590 or the
equivalent.
CAUTION
Never use fuel other than specification EN590 or the equivalent for your vehicle. Use of
petrol or paraffin in diesel engines will result in engine damage.
Never add fuel system additives. Otherwise, the emission control system could be damaged.
Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer for details.
NOTE
When refuelling, always add at least 10 L (2.6 US gal, 2.2 Imp gal) of fuel.
▼ Emission Control System
This vehicle is equipped with an emission control system (the catalytic converter is part of this
system) that enables the vehicle to comply with existing exhaust emissions requirements.
WARNING
Never park over or near anything flammable:
Parking over or near anything flammable, such as dry grass, is dangerous. Even with the
engine turned off, the exhaust system remains very hot after normal use and could ignite
anything flammable. A resulting fire could cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
Ignoring the following precautions could cause lead to accumulate on the catalyst inside the
converter or cause the converter to get very hot. Either condition will damage the converter
and cause poor performance.
Do not drive your Mazda with any sign of engine malfunction.
Do not coast with the ignition switched off.
Do not descend steep grades in gear with the ignition switched off.
Do not operate the engine at high idle for more than 2 minutes.
Do not tamper with the emission control system. All inspections and adjustments must be
made by a qualified technician.
Do not push-start or pull-start this vehicle.
