Get Off to a Flying Start
The first few weeks are about getting comfortable with how your vehicle charges, drives and responds day to day.
Start with a few simple habits to help you make the most of every journey.
Make Charging Part of Your Routine
Plug in when you’re at home or parked for longer periods, so your vehicle is always ready when you need it.
Keep Your Battery in top condition
For everyday charging, standard charging is recommended. It helps maintain the high-voltage battery in optimum condition.
Choose The Right Way to Charge
Use normal (AC) charging for regular top-ups and save fast charging (DC) for when you need it on longer trips.
Drive With the Flow
Smooth acceleration and lifting off the accelerator early allows regenerative braking to recover energy and improve efficiency.
A quick monthly checklist
Your Mazda CX-6e is designed for lower maintenance, but a quick check each month helps keep everything performing exactly as it should.
Tyres and Pressure
Tyres play a key role in safety, comfort and driving range. Check that they are properly inflated and in good condition to maintain optimal performance.
Check Washer Fluid
Keep your washer fluid topped up so your windscreen stays clear in all conditions.
Always use an appropriate washer fluid to protect your vehicle’s finish and components.
Brake Performance
Electric driving relies heavily on regenerative braking, which means your brakes are used less often. From time to time, apply the brakes normally and ensure they feel smooth, responsive and consistent.
Charging Equipment
Take a moment to check your charging cable and connectors. They should be clean, dry and free from wear to ensure safe and reliable charging every time.
Battery and cooling systems
Your Mazda CX-6e automatically manages battery temperature and performance. These systems operate in the background and are checked during scheduled servicing, so you can drive with confidence.
Cameras and Sensors
Your CX-6e relies on cameras and sensors for parking and driver assistance. Check they are clean and unobstructed, particularly after wet or dusty driving.
Your complementary inspection
After the first month, Mazda Service Technicians will carry out a free, complete examination of your vehicle to ensure your Mazda continues to run at its peak. This inspection is part of the service you get as a new Mazda buyer. If you have not booked your new Mazda for its complimentary inspection yet, please contact your Mazda Dealer.
