Yet to pick up my CX5 (this week hopefully) but just wondering whether it is possible to put a picture on the screen as wallpaper! Thank you.

There are a few hacks that can be possibly done, but I don't like messing with things I don't fully understand.
Sites such as Mazda hacks or something like that.

Likewise, if its not in the handbook/ settings I don't bother.

Yes, you can. It is even easy to implement (one tweak installable via a USB stick).

See my example herewith.

Alternative site:

I've installed this and it works very nicely - lots of extra tweaks to the ICE.  I've not actually changed the wallpaper/background but I might tinker with it at some point...

Oh yes I see, although that's an unusual way of spelling Settings or Einstellung.  ;D ;D ;D

Thank you Willpower for setting up correctly.

Deeps, "Instellingen" is Dutch for Settings....oder Einstellungen.

Imagine the "surprise" when my dealer saw this! He immediately asked me if I could install a custom wallpaper for his personal CX-5.

For the ones who only need this change (wallpaper) see:

This is completely harmless for your CMU unit as you do not change anything else, only the background. It is a bit the same as for your Windows PC/Laptop: this modification does not modify your Operating System.

Good luck!

Yes I'd worked that out for myself and I posted very much tongue in cheek attempting to give the impression that I'd not noticed the wallpaper only the spelling of the text. Oh well,
never mind. Next time I'll slap myself around the face with a wet fish before trying to be funny.  ;D

Those mods appear to be for a different version?

"•This is for Mazda CMU version  v55.00.750A or v55.00.753A only! (I recommend upgrading to .753A if possible)"

Have you or anyone actually install those to a v56.00.513?
