Mazda CX-3: Owner Maintenance / Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and hood hinges and locks, should be
lubricated each time the engine oil is
changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on
locks during cold weather.
Make sure the hood's secondary latch
keeps the hood from opening when the
primary latch is released.
Inspecting Washer Fluid Level
WARNING
Use only windshield washer fluid or plain
water in the reservoir: Using radiator antifreeze as washer fluid is
dangerous...
CAUTION
Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to affect the

To prevent damage to the wiper blades,
do not use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near
them...
