Operating Tips
 y Operate the climate control system with
the engine running.
 y  To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the fan control
dial on for a long period of time with the
ignition switched ON when the engine is
not running.
 y  Clear all obstructions such as leaves,
snow and ice from the hood and the air
inlet in the cowl grille to improve the
system effi ciency.
 y Use the climate control system to defog
the windows and dehumidify the air.
 y  The recirculate mode should be used
when driving through tunnels or while in
a traffi c jam, or when you would like to
shut off outside air for quick cooling of
the interior.
 y  Use the outside air mode for ventilation
or windshield defrosting.
 y  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.
 y  Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes
at least once a month to keep internal
parts lubricated.
 y  Have the air conditioner checked before
the weather gets hot. Lack of refrigerant
may make the air conditioner less
effi cient.
 The refrigerant specifi cations are
indicated on a label attached to the
inside of the engine compartment. Check
the label before refi lling the refrigerant.
If the wrong type of refrigerant is used,
it could result in a serious malfunction
of the air conditioner.
 For details, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

NOTE
When the mode is set to or with the

NOTE
 y The mode selector dial can be set at the
intermediate positions (
) between
each mode. Set the dial to an
intermediate position if you want to
split the airfl ow between the two modes.
 y  For example, when the mode selector
dial is at the
position between the
and positions, airfl ow from the fl oor
vent is less than that of the
position.

dial is in any position except OFF.
