Fuel-Filler Flap and Cap
WARNING
When removing the fuel-filler 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-filler cap is removed too
quickly.
Before refuelling, stop the engine, and
always keep sparks and flames away
from the filler neck:
Fuel vapour is dangerous. It could be
ignited by sparks or flames causing
serious burns and injuries.
Additionally, use of the incorrect fuel-
filler cap or not using a fuel-filler cap
may result in fuel leak, which could
result in serious burns or death in an
accident.
Do not continue refuelling after the
fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically:
Continuing to add fuel after the fuel
pump nozzle has shut off
automatically is dangerous because
overfilling the fuel tank may cause
fuel overflow or leakage. Fuel
overflow and leakage could damage
the vehicle and if the fuel ignites it
could cause a fire and explosion
resulting in serious injury or death.
CAUTION
Always use only a designated Mazda
fuel-filler cap or an approved
equivalent, available at an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer. The wrong cap can
result in a serious malfunction of the
fuel and emission control systems.
