Add-On Non-Genuine Parts and Accessories
Non-genuine parts and accessories for Mazda vehicles can be found in stores.
These may fit your vehicle, but they are not approved by Mazda for use with
Mazda
vehicles. When you install non-genuine parts or accessories, they could affect
your
vehicle's performance or safety systems; the Mazda warranty doesn't cover this.
Before you
install any non-genuine parts or accessories, consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
WARNING.
Always consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer before you install non-genuine parts
or
accessories:
Installation of non-genuine parts or accessories is dangerous. Improperly
designed
parts or accessories could seriously affect your vehicle's performance or safety
systems. This could cause you to have an accident or increase your chances of
injuries in an accident.
Be very careful in choosing and installing add-on electrical equipment, such as
mobile telephones, two-way radios, stereo systems, and car alarm systems:
Incorrectly choosing or installing improper add-on equipment or choosing an
improper installer is dangerous. Essential systems could be damaged, causing
engine
stalling, air-bag (SRS) activation, ABS inactivation, or a fire in the vehicle.
Mazda assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may
result from the
installation of add-on non-genuine parts or accessories.
