To prevent a deterioration in the voice
recognition rate and voice quality, the
following points should be observed:
lThe Hands-free system cannot perform
voice recognition while voice guidance
or a beep sound is operating. Wait until
the voice guidance or the beep sound is
finished before saying your commands.
lDialects or different wording other than
Hands-Free prompts cannot be
recognized by voice recognition. Speak
in the wording specified by the voice
commands.
lIt is not necessary to face the
microphone or approach it. Speak the
voice commands while maintaining a
safe driving position.
lDo not speak too slow or too loud.lSpeak clearly, without pausing between
words or numbers.
lClose the windows and/or the
moonroof to reduce loud noises from
outside the vehicle.
lTurn down the airflow of the air-
conditioning system while Bluetooth®
Hands-Free is being used.lMake sure the vents are not directing
air up towards the microphone.
NOTE
If the voice recognition performance is not
satisfactory.
Refer to Troubleshooting on page 6-170.

Overheating
If the High engine coolant temperature
warning light illuminates, the vehicle
loses power, or you hear a loud knocking
or pinging noise, the engine is probably
too hot.
WARNING
Switch the ignition to off and
make sure the fan is not running before
attempting to work near the cooling
fan: Working near the cooling fan when it
is running is dangerous. The fan
could continue running indefinitely
even if the engine has stopped and
the engine compartment temperature
is high. You could be hit by the fan
and seriously injured.
Do not remove the cooling
system cap when the engine and
radiator are hot:
When the engine and radiator are
hot, scalding coolant and steam may
shoot out under pressure and cause
serious injury.
Open the hood ONLY after steam is no
longer escaping from the engine: Steam from an overheated engine is
dangerous. The escaping steam could
seriously burn you.
If the High engine coolant temperature
warning light illuminates:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way. 2. Put a vehicle with an automatic
transaxle in park (P), a manual
transaxle in neutral.
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. Turn off the air conditioner.
5. Check whether coolant or steam is escaping from under the hood or from
the engine compartment.
If steam is coming from the engine
compartment:
Do not go near the front of the vehicle.
Stop the engine.
Wait until the steam dissipates, then
open the hood and start the engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is
escaping:
Open the hood and idle the engine until
it cools.
CAUTION
If the cooling fan does not operate
while the engine is running, the
engine temperature will increase.
Stop the engine and call an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
6. Make sure the cooling fan is operating, then turn off the engine after the
temperature has decreased.
7. When cool, check the coolant reservoir level.
If it's low, look for coolant leaks from
the radiator and hoses.
