CAUTIONS FOR USE
6
•
The bolt and nut tend to become loose if the rear wing angle is adjusted repeatedly. Consult your
Authorized Mazda Dealer when adjusting the angle for the sixth time.
CAUTION
•
Do not drive through an automatic car wash. A brush may catch on the accessory, damaging the
vehicle and/or the rear wing.
•
The rear wing is not a handle. Do not open/close the trunk holding the wing. The adjustable
mechanism may be damaged.
•
Open/close the trunk lid lightly and gently. (Allow the trunk lid to close by its own weight.) If it is
opened/closed forcefully, vehicle parts and the rear wing may be damaged.
•
When the accessory gets dirty, clean it with neutral detergent. Never use thinner, benzene, or any
organic solvent.
•
Installation of the rear wing slightly decreases the lid holding performance when opening/closing the
trunk lid.
•
When loading/unloading baggage, choose level ground and make sure that the trunk lid is fully
opened. If it is not, the vehicle body may rock slightly when baggage is placed, causing the trunk lid
to slow shut.
•
When closing the trunk lid, be careful not to pinch your hand or other parts of your body.
CAUTION
Loosen and
tighten again.
D: 15°
C: 10°

inside.
