General Information: Other Mazda 6 GH рестайлинг

Range of Topics

1. This manual contains procedures for performing all required service operations. The procedures are divided into the following five basic operations: Removal/Installation Disassembly/Assembly Replacement Inspection Adjustment
2. Simple operations which can be performed easily just by looking at the vehicle (i.e., removal/installation of parts, jacking, vehicle lifting, cleaning of parts, and visual inspection) have been omitted.

Scheme 41

1. Inspection and adjustment procedures are divided into steps. Important points regarding the location and contents of the procedures are explained in detail and shown in the illustrations.

Scheme 42

1. Most repair operations begin with an overview illustration. It identifies the components, shows how the parts fit together, and describes visual part inspection. However, only removal/installation procedures that need to be performed methodically have written instructions.
2. Expendable parts, tightening torques, and symbols for oil, grease, and sealant are shown in the overview illustration. In addition, symbols indicating parts requiring the use of special service tools or equivalent are also shown.
3. Procedure steps are numbered and the part that is the main point of that procedure is shown in the illustration with the corresponding number. Occasionally, there are important points or additional information concerning a procedure. Refer to this information when servicing the related part.

Scheme 43

1. There are eight symbols indicating oil, grease, fluids, sealant, and the use of SST or equivalent. These symbols show application points or use of these materials during service.

Advisory Messages

1. You will find several Warnings, Cautions, Notes, Specifications and Upper and Lower Limits in this manual. WARNING: A Warning indicates a situation in which serious injury or death could result if the warning is ignored. CAUTION: A Caution indicates a situation in which damage to the vehicle or parts could result if the caution is ignored. NOTE: A Note provides added information that will help you to complete a particular procedure.

Upper and lower limits

1. The values indicate the upper and lower limits that must not be exceeded when performing inspections or adjustments.

Scheme 44

UNITS

UNITS REFERENCE CHART

Conversion from SI Units (Systeme International d'Unites)

1. All numerical values in this manual are based on SI units. Numbers shown in conventional units are converted from these values.

Number Of Digits For Converted Values

1. The number digits for converted values is the same as the number of significant figures *1 of the SI unit.
2. For the torque value, the number of significant figures is, in principle, is 2 digits, in consideration of market practicalities. However, if the number of decimal places at the upper and lower limits of the converted value differs, the one with least number of decimal places is used. In addition, if the integer part is 3 digits or more, the integer part becomes the significant number of figures.

*1 : The number of significant figures is the number of digits from the left-most non-zero digit to the right-most digit including 0. (Example: 0.12 is 2 digits, 41.0 is 3 digits)

Converted Value Rounding Off And Rounding Up/down

1. If there is no tolerance in the SI unit value, after conversion, rounding off is to within the number of significant digits.
2. If there is tolerance in the SI unit value and the figure after conversion indicates the upper limit, the number of digits is rounded down to within the number of significant figures. If it indicates the lower limit, they are rounded up to within the number of significant figures.
3. Even if the SI unit value is the same, the converted value may differ based on whether that value is the upper or lower limit.

Injury/damage Prevention Precautions

1. Depending on the vehicle, the cooling fan may operate suddenly even when the ignition is switched to off. Therefore, keep hands and tools away from the cooling fan even if the cooling fan is not operating to prevent injury to personnel or damage to the cooling fan. Always disconnect the negative battery cable when servicing the cooling fan or parts near the cooling fan.

Scheme 45

1. Always be sure to cover fenders, seats and floor areas before starting work.

Scheme 46

1. Be sure that all necessary tools and measuring equipment are available before starting any work.

Scheme 47

1. Use special service tools or equivalent when they are required.

Dynamometer

1. When inspecting and servicing the power train on the dynamometer or speed meter tester, pay attention to the following: Place a fan, preferably a vehicle-speed proportional type, in front of the vehicle. Make sure the vehicle is in a facility with an exhaust gas ventilation system. Keep the rear bumper cool by placing a cooling fan near the exhaust pipe so that the rear bumper does not get deformed by the heat from the exhaust. Keep the area around the vehicle uncluttered so that heat does not build up. Watch the water temperature gauge and don't overheat the engine. Avoid added load to the engine and maintain normal driving conditions as much as possible. NOTE: When only the front or rear wheels are rotated on a chassis dynamometer or equivalent, the DSC HU/CM determines that there is a malfunction in the DSC and illuminates the following lights: ABS warning light Brake system warning light DSC indicator light If the above lights are illuminated, dismount the vehicle from the chassis dynamometer and switch the ignition OFF (LOCK). Then, switch the ignition ON, run the vehicle at 10 km/h {6.2 mph} or more and verify that the warning lights go out. In this case, a DTC will be stored in the memory. Clear the DTC from the memory by following the memory clearing procedure [DSC] in the on-board diagnostic system. (See «ON-BOARD DIAGNOSIS [DYNAMIC STABILITY CONTROL (DSC)]»(ref-448572-S14766025222012012000000) .)

SST

1. Some global SST or equivalent are used as SSTs necessary for engine repair. Note that these SSTs are marked with global SST numbers.
2. Note that a global SST number is written together with a corresponding Mazda SST number as shown below.
