Emission Control Maintenance (Australia)
Emission control maintenance is periodically required to ensure proper emission control and
engine performance. Refer to scheduled maintenance (page 6-3) for information on when
and how to perform the following inspections and servicing items.
For owners with a Mazda Workshop Manual, refer to the sections on Predelivery Inspection
and Scheduled Maintenance.
▼ Engine
Drive belts
Inspect the belts for cracks and other damage. Replace if necessary.
Engine oil
When changing the engine oil, use ACEA C3 oil of the proper viscosity for your climate.
Change it more frequently during heavy use under any of these conditions:
1. Dusty environment
2. Extended idling or low-speed operations
3. Driving for a prolonged period in cold temperatures or in an extremely humid climate
4. Repeated short-distance driving
Oil filter
Do not fail to change the oil filter as prescribed. As with the engine oil, under severe driving
conditions, the filter should be changed more frequently.
Cooling system
When inspecting hoses (including the heater hose), connections, and clamps, look for leaks,
swellings, cracks, and other damage. Replace any defective hose or part.
Engine coolant
Change the coolant and flush the cooling system as prescribed.
▼ Fuel System and Air-Intake Control System
Fuel lines and hoses
When inspecting the fuel pipes, hoses, connections and clamps, look for leaks, deterioration,
and other damage.
Replace any defective hose or part.
