Fuel and Emission

 Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap

WARNING

  When removing the fuel-fi ller cap, 
loosen the cap slightly and wait for any 
hissing to stop, then remove it:

  Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can 
burn skin and eyes and cause illness 
if ingested. Fuel spray is released 
when there is pressure in the fuel tank 
and the fuel-fi ller cap is removed too 
quickly.
  

  Before refueling, stop the engine, and 
always keep sparks and fl ames away 
from the fi ller neck:

  Fuel vapor is dangerous. It could be 
ignited by sparks or fl ames causing 
serious burns and injuries.
  Additionally, use of the incorrect fuel-
fi ller cap or not using a fuel-fi ller cap 
may result in a fuel leak, which could 
result in serious burns or death in an 
accident.

CAUTION

  Always use only a genuine Mazda fuel-
fi ller cap or an approved equivalent, 
available at an Authorized Mazda 
Dealer. The wrong cap can result in 
a serious malfunction of the fuel and 
emission control systems. It may also 
cause the check engine light in the 
instrument cluster to illuminate.
