NOTE
When the ignition is switched to ACC
or off, the odometer or trip meters
cannot be displayed, however, pressing
the selector can inadvertently switch
the trip meters or reset them during an
approximate ten-minute period in the
following cases:
 
 After the ignition is switched to off
from ON.
  After the driver's door is opened.
Odometer
The odometer records the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.
Trip meter
The trip meter can record the total distance
of two trips. One is recorded in trip meter
A, and the other is recorded in trip meter
B.
For instance, trip meter A can record the
distance from the point of origin, and
trip meter B can record the distance from
where the fuel tank is ¿ lled.
When trip meter A is selected, pressing
the selector again within one second will
change to trip meter B mode.
When trip meter A is selected, TRIP A
will be displayed. When trip meter B is
selected, TRIP B will be displayed.
The trip meter records the total distance
the vehicle is driven until the meter is
again reset. Return it to “0.0” by holding
the selector depressed for 1 second
or more. Use this meter to measure
trip distances and to compute fuel
consumption.

When Driving
Instrument Cluster and Display
NOTE
  (Vehicles with type B audio)  If the fuel economy data is reset
using the fuel economy monitor,
or trip A is reset using the trip
meter when the function which
synchronizes the fuel economy
monitor and the trip meter is on, the
fuel economy data and trip A are
reset simultaneously.
 Refer to Fuel Economy Monitor on
page 4-93 .
  Only the trip meters record tenths of
kilometres (miles).
  The trip record will be erased when: 



 The power supply is interrupted
(blown fuse or the battery is
disconnected).
 


 The vehicle is driven over
9999.9 km (mile).
Trip Computer
The following information can be selected
by pressing the selector with the ignition
switched ON.
 


 Approximate distance you can travel on
the available fuel
 


 Current fuel economy
If you have any problems with your trip
computer, consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
Distance-to-empty mode
This mode displays the approximate
distance you can travel on the remaining
fuel based on the fuel economy. The distance-to-empty will be calculated
and displayed every second.


NOTE
  Even though the distance-to-empty
display may indicate a suf¿ cient
amount of remaining driving distance
before refuelling is required, refuel
as soon as possible if the fuel level
is very low or the low fuel warning
light illuminates.
  The display may not change unless
you add more than approximately
9 L (2.3 US gal, 1.9 Imp gal) of fuel.
  The distance-to-empty is the
approximate remaining distance the
vehicle can be driven until all the
graduation marks in the fuel gauge
indicating the remaining fuel supply
disappear.
  If there is no past fuel economy
information such as after ¿ rst
purchasing your vehicle or the
information is deleted when the
battery leads are disconnected, the
actual distance-to empty/range may
differ from the amount indicated.

*Some models.
Current fuel economy mode
This mode displays the current fuel
economy by calculating the amount of fuel
consumption and the distance travelled.
Current fuel economy will be calculated
and displayed every 2 seconds.


When you've slowed to about 5 km/h
(3 mph), - - - L/100 km (- - - mpg) will be
displayed.
Tachometer *
The tachometer shows engine speed in
thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm).
CAUTION
Do not run the engine with the
tachometer needle in the RED ZONE.
This may cause severe engine damage.

NOTE
When the tachometer needle enters the
STRIPED ZONE, this indicates to the
driver that the gears should be shifted
before entering the RED ZONE.
Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows approximately
how much fuel is remaining in the tank
when the ignition is switched ON. We
recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.


Full
1/4 Full
Empty

If the low fuel warning light illuminates or
the fuel level is very low, refuel as soon as
possible.
Refer to Warning Lights on page 4-38 .
NOTE
  After refuelling, it may require some
time for the indicator to stabilize. In
addition, the indicator may deviate
while driving on a slope or curve
since the fuel moves in the tank.
  The display indicating a quarter
or less remaining fuel has more
segments to show the remaining fuel
level in greater detail.
  The direction of the arrow ( )
indicates that the fuel-¿ ller À ap is on
the left side of the vehicle.
(SKYACTIV-D 1.5)
If inconsistency in engine performance
or stalling occurs due to low fuel level
conditions, refuel the vehicle as soon as
possible and add at least 10 L (2.7 US gal,
2.2 Imp gal) of fuel.
Instrument Panel Illumination
When the position lights are turned
on with the ignition switched ON,
the brightness of the instrument panel
illumination is dimmed.
NOTE
When the position lights are turned on,
the position lights indicator light in the
