OverheatingIf the temperature gauge indicates
overheating, if you experience power
loss, or if you hear a loud knocking or
pinging noise, the engine is probably
too hot.
If this happens:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road
and park off the right-of-way.
2. Set an automatic transaxle in P, a manual transaxle in neutral. Apply
the parking brake.
3. Turn off the air conditioner.

WARNING
!
Steam from Overheated Engine:Steam from an overheated engine
is dangerous. The escaping steam
could seriously burn you. Open
the hood ONLY after steam is no
longer escaping from the engine.4. Check whether coolant or steam isescaping from the hood or from the
engine compartment.
If steam is coming from the engine
compartment, don’ t go near the
front of the vehicle. Stop the
engine. Then turn the ignition
switch to the ON position without
starting the engine. The radiator cooling fans will start to cool the
engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is
escaping, open the hood and idle
the engine until it cools. If this
doesn’
t lower the temperature, stop
the engine and let it cool.
5. Check the coolant level. If it’ s low, look for leaks in the
radiator hoses and connections,
heater hoses and connections,
radiator, and water pump.
If you find a leak or other damage,
or if coolant is still leaking, stop the
engine and call an Authorized
Mazda Dealer. If you find no problems, the engine
is cool, and no leaks are obvious,
carefully add coolant as required
(page 8-21).

WARNING
!
Cooling System Caps:When the engine and radiator are
hot, scalding coolant and steam
may shoot out under pressure and
cause serious injury. Don’t
remove either cooling system cap
when the engine and radiator are
hot.
CAUTION
!
If the engine continues to overheat
or frequently overheats, have the
cooling system inspected. The
engine could be seriously damaged
unless repairs are made.

Emergency Starting Jump-Starting
Jump-starting is dangerous if done
incorrectly. So follow the procedure
carefully. If you feel unsure about
jump-starting, we strongly recommend
that you have a competent service
technician do the work.
CAUTION
!
Use only a 12-volt booster system.
You can damage a 12-volt starter
motor, ignition system, and other
electrical parts beyond repair with
a 24-volt power supply (two
12-volt batteries in series or a
24-volt motor generator set).
WARNING
!
Battery-Related Explosion:Flames and sparks near open
battery cells are dangerous.
Hydrogen gas, produced during
normal battery operation, could
ignite and cause the battery to
explode. An exploding battery can
cause serious burns and injuries.
Keep all flames, including
cigarettes, and sparks away from
open battery cells.

vehicles.
3. Connect the jumper cables in the exact sequence as in the illustration.
(1) Connect one end of a cable to the positive terminal on the
discharged battery
.
(2) Attach the other end to the positive terminal on the booster
battery
.
(3) Connect one end of the other
cable to the negative terminal
of the booster battery
.
(4) Connect the other end to a solid,
stationary, exposed metallic
point (for example, the engine
hanger) away from the
discharged battery
.
4. Start the engine of the booster vehicle and run it a few minutes.
Then start the engine of the other
vehicle.
5. When finished, carefully disconnect the cables in the reverse
order described in Step 3.
WARNING
!
Connecting to Negative Terminal:Connecting the end of the second
cable to the negative (–) terminal
of the discharged battery is
dangerous. A spark could cause
the gas around the battery to
explode and injure someone.
Connect the cable to a point away
from the battery.

4. Inspect it and replace if it’s blown.
NOTEThe check engine light comes on
when a ROOM fuse blows or
when a ROOM fuse is removed.
When installing a ROOM fuse,
turn the ignition switch off and
wait 60 seconds before installing
the fuse. If the check engine light
comes on and doesn’t go off, there
is a problem other than the fuse
system. Consult your Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
5. Push in a new fuse of the same rating, and make sure it fits tightly.
If it doesn’ t, have an Authorized
Mazda Dealer install it.
If you have no spare fuses, borrow one
of the same rating from a circuit not
essential to vehicle operation, such as
the RADIO circuit.
CAUTION
!
Always replace a fuse with one of
the same rating. Otherwise you
may damage the electric system.
