death. If you smell exhaust gas
inside your vehicle, keep all
windows fully open and contact
an Authorized Mazda Dealer
immediately.
WARNING

Exhaust Gas in Enclosed Area:Running the engine inside an
enclosed area, such as a garage,
is dangerous. Exhaust gas, which
contains poisonous carbon
monoxide, could easily enter the
cabin. Loss of consciousness or
even death could occur. Don’t run
the engine when inside an
enclosed area.
WARNING
!
Idling with the Windows Closed:Exhaust gas is dangerous. When
your vehicle is stopped with the
windows closed and the engine
running for a long time in an
open area, exhaust gas, which
contains poisonous carbon
monoxide, could enter the cabin.
Loss of consciousness or even
death could occur. Open the
windows or adjust the heating or
cooling system to draw fresh air.

Outside/Recirculated air position
Use the outside air position in normal
conditions. The recirculated air
position can be used temporarily when
driving on dusty roads or for quick
cooling of the interior.
 Parking in direct sunlight
If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows to let warm air escape, then
run the climate control system. 
Not using for a long period
Run the air conditioner at least once a
month to keep internal parts
lubricated.
 Check the refrigerant before
weather gets hot
Have the air conditioner checked
before weather gets hot. Lack of
refrigerant may make the air
conditioner less efficient. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer for
refrigerant inspection.

CAUTION
!
When using 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.
