Inspecting Brake Fluid Level
WARNING
If the brake uid level is low, have the
brakes inspected:
A low brake
uid
level is dangerous.
A low level could indicate brake lining wear
or a brake system leak which could cause
the brakes to fail and lead to an accident.
Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir
regularly. It should be kept between the
MAX and MIN lines.
The level normally drops with
accumulated distance, a condition
associated with wear of brake linings. If it
is excessively low, have the brake system
inspected by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

water in the reservoir:
Using radiator antifreeze as washer
uid
is
dangerous. If sprayed on the windshield, it
will dirty the windshield,
aect
your
visibility, and could result in an accident.
Using Washer Fluid Without Anti-freeze
Protection in Cold Weather:
Operating your vehicle in temperatures
below 4 degrees C (40 degrees F) using
washer uid without anti-freeze protection
is dangerous as it could cause impaired
windshield vision and result in an accident.
In cold weather, always use washer uid
with anti-freeze protection.
