Mazda 6 Owners Manual: Inspecting Electrolyte Level
A low level of electrolyte fluid will cause the battery to discharge quickly.
Inspect the electrolyte level at least once a week. If it is low, remove the caps and add enough distilled water to bring the level between the upper and lower level (illustration).
Do not overfill.
Examine the specific gravity of the electrolyte with a hydrometer, especially during cold weather. If it is low, recharge the battery.
