Operating Tips
lOperate the climate control system
with the engine running.
lTo 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.
lClear all obstructions such as leaves,
snow and ice from the hood and the air
inlet in the cowl grille to improve the
system efficiency.
lUse the climate control system to defog
the windows and dehumidify the air.
lThe recirculate mode should be used
when driving through tunnels or while
in a traffic jam, or when you would like
to shut off outside air for quick cooling
of the interior.
lUse the outside air position for
ventilation or windshield defrosting.
lIf 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.
lRun the air conditioner about 10
minutes at least once a month to keep
internal parts lubricated.
lHave the air conditioner checked
before the weather gets hot. Lack of
refrigerant may make the air
conditioner less efficient.
The refrigerant specifications are
indicated on a label attached to the
inside of the engine compartment.
Check the label before refilling 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.
