To help protect the finish from rust and
deterioration, wash your Mazda
thoroughly and frequently, at least
once a month, with lukewarm or cold
water.
If the vehicle is washed improperly, the
paint surface could be scratched. Here
are some examples of how scratching
could occur.
Scratches occur on the paint surface
when:
x
The vehicle is washed without first
rinsing off dirt and other foreign
matter.
x
The vehicle is washed with a rough,
dry, or dirty cloth.
x
The vehicle is washed at a car wash
that uses brushes that are dirty or too
stiff.
x
Cleansers or wax containing
abrasives are used.
NOTE
x
Mazda is not responsible for
scratches caused by automatic car
washes or improper washing.
x
Scratches are more noticeable on
vehicles with darker paint finishes.
To minimize scratches on the vehicle's
paint finish:

matter using lukewarm or cold water
before washing.

Use plenty of lukewarm or cold
water and a soft cloth when washing
the vehicle. Do not use a nylon cloth.
