WARNING

Replacement Fuel Caps:
If you lose the fuel cap, replace it
with one that is an authorized
Mazda service part or an equivalent
part. If you do not use the proper
fuel filler cap, excessive pressure or
vacuum in the fuel tank may dam-
age the fuel system or cause the fuel
system to work improperly in a col-
lision, which may result in possible
personal injury.

CAUTION

When refueling always shut the
engine off and never allow sparks or
open flames near the filler neck.
Never smoke while refueling. Fuel
vapor is extremely hazardous under
certain conditions. Care should be
taken to avoid inhaling excess
fumes.

CAUTION

The flow of fuel through a fuel pump
nozzle can produce static electricity,
which can cause a fire if fuel is
pumped into an ungrounded fuel
container.
