Mazda CX-3: Driving Tips / Overloading
WARNING
Be careful not to overload your vehicle:
The gross axle weight rating (GAWR) and
the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of
the vehicle are on the Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard Label on the driver's door frame.
Exceeding these ratings can cause an
accident or vehicle damage. You can
estimate the weight of the load by
weighing the items (or people) before
putting them in the vehicle.
WARNING
Dry off brakes that have become wet by
driving slowly, releasing the accelerator
pedal and lightly applying the brakes
several times until the brake performance
returns to normal:
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous...
Your vehicle's suspension and underbody can be damaged if driven on
rough/uneven roads
or over speed bumps at excessive speeds. Use care and reduce speed when
traveling on
rough/uneven roads or over speed bumps...
Other information:
Adjust the head restraint so that the center
is even with the top of the passenger's
ears.
To raise a head restraint, pull it up to the
desired position.
To lower the head restraint, press the
stop-catch release, then push the head
restraint down...
Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid Level
WARNING
If the brake/clutch fluid level is low, have
the brakes inspected: A low brake/clutch fluid 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...

Cargo stacked higher than the seatbacks is
dangerous. It can block your view in the
rearview mirror, which might cause you to
hit another car when changing lanes.
Rearview mirror adjustment
Before driving, adjust the rearview mirror
to center on the scene through the rear
window.
