If Trouble Arises
Overheating
Overheating
If the temperature gauge indicates
overheating or the high engine coolant
temperature warning light turns on, the
vehicle loses power, or you hear a loud
knocking or pinging noise, the engine is
probably too hot.
WARNING
Pull over to a safe location, then
switch the ignition 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 indefi nitely 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 either 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 temperature gauge indicates
overheating or the high engine coolant
temperature warning light turns on:


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 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 level.
If it is low, look for coolant leaks from the radiator and hoses.

Park the vehicle in a safe place. After a few moments, if the warning light stops fl ashing,
you can resume driving. If the light does not stop fl ashing, contact an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
 When the differential oil temperature is excessively high.
 When there is a large difference between the front and rear wheel rotation, such as when
trying to remove the vehicle from mud.

(Turns on)
TCS/DSC Indicator Light If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or the brake assist system may have a malfunction and
they may not operate correctly. Take your vehicle to an Authorized Mazda Dealer.


Air Bag/Front Seat Belt Pretensioner System Warning Light A system malfunction is indicated if the warning light constantly
fl ashes, constantly
illuminates or does not illuminate at all when the ignition is switched \
ON. If any of these
occur, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible. The system may not operate
in an accident. WARNING
Never tamper with the air bag/pretensioner systems and always have an Authorized
Mazda Dealer perform all servicing and repairs: Self-servicing or tampering with the systems is dangerous. An air bag/pretensioner
could accidentally activate or become disabled causing serious injury or death.


(Flashing)
Tire Pressure
Monitoring System Warning Light
* If the tire pressure monitoring system has a malfunction, the tire press\
ure warning light
fl
ashes. Have your vehicle checked by an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING
If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light illuminates or fl ashes, or the tire
pressure warning beep sound is heard, decrease vehicle speed immediately and avoid
sudden maneuvering and braking:
If the tire pressure monitoring system warning light illuminates or fl ashes, or the tire
pressure warning beep sound is heard, it is dangerous to drive the vehicle at high
speeds, or perform sudden maneuvering or braking. Vehicle drivability could worsen
and result in an accident.
To determine if you have a slow leak or a fl at, pull over to a safe position where you can
check the visual condition of the tire and determine if you have enough air to proceed
to a place where air may be added and the system monitored again by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer or a tire repair station.

Do not ignore the TPMS Warning Light: Ignoring the TPMS warning light is dangerous, even if you know why it is illuminated.
Have the problem taken care of as soon as possible before it develops into a more
serious situation that could lead to tire failure and a dangerous accident.

Taking Action
Take the appropriate action and verify that the warning light turns off.

Signal Warning Action to be taken


(Turns on)
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning Light
* When the warning light illuminates, and
the warning beep sound is heard when tire
pressure is too low in one or more tires.
WARNING
If the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light illuminates or fl
ashes,
or the tire pressure warning beep
sound is heard, decrease vehicle
speed immediately and avoid sudden
maneuvering and braking:
If the tire pressure monitoring system
warning light illuminates or fl ashes,
or the tire pressure warning beep
sound is heard, it is dangerous to
drive the vehicle at high speeds, or
perform sudden maneuvering or
braking. Vehicle drivability could
worsen and result in an accident.
To determine if you have a slow leak
or a fl at, pull over to a safe position
where you can check the visual
condition of the tire and determine
if you have enough air to proceed to
a place where air may be added and
the system monitored again by an
Authorized Mazda Dealer or a tire
repair station.

Do not ignore the TPMS Warning Light: Ignoring the TPMS warning light is
dangerous, even if you know why
it is illuminated. Have the problem
taken care of as soon as possible
before it develops into a more serious
situation that could lead to tire
failure and a dangerous accident. Inspect the tires and adjust to the speci
fi ed
infl ation pressure (page 6-39 ).
CAUTION
When replacing/repairing the tires or wheels
or both, have the work done by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer, or the tire pressure sensors may
be damaged.
NOTE

Perform tire pressure adjustment when the tires are
cold. Tire pressure will vary according to the tire
temperature, therefore let the vehicle stand for
1 hour or only drive it 1.6 km (1 mile) or less
before adjusting the tire pressures. When pressure
is adjusted on hot tires to the cold in fl ation
pressure, the TPMS warning light/beep may turn
on after the tires cool and pressure drops below
specifi cation.
Also, an illuminated TPMS warning light, resulting
from the tire air pressure dropping due to cold
ambient temperature, may turn off if the ambient
temperature rises. In this case, it will also be
necessary to adjust the tire air pressures. If the
TPMS warning light illuminates due to a drop in
tire air pressure, make sure to check and adjust the
tire air pressures.
 After adjusting the tire air pressures, it may require
some time for the TPMS warning light to turn off. If
the TPMS warning light remains illuminated, drive
the vehicle at a speed of at least 25 km/h (16 mph)
for 10 minutes, and then verify that it turns off.
 Tires lose air naturally over time and the TPMS
cannot tell if the tires are getting too soft over time
or you have a fl at. However, when you fi nd one low
tire in a set of four-that is an indication of trouble;
you should have someone drive the vehicle slowly
forward so you can inspect any low tire for cuts
and any metal objects sticking through tread or
sidewall. Put a few drops of water in the valve stem
to see if it bubbles indicating a bad valve. Leaks
need to be addressed by more than simply re fi lling
the trouble tire as leaks are dangerous — take it
to an Authorized Mazda Dealer which has all the
equipment to fi x tires, TPMS systems and order the
best replacement tire for your vehicle.
If the warning light illuminates again even after the tire pressures are adjusted, there may be a tire
puncture.

Event Data Recorder
Event Data Recorder (U.S.A. and Canada)
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR
is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an\
air bag deployment
or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a\
vehicle’s systems
performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safet\
y
systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
  How various systems in your vehicle were operating;  Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fasten\
ed;  How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or b\
rake pedal; and,  How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances \
in which crashes
and injuries occur.
NOTE:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash or nea\
r crash-like situation
occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions \
and no personal
data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such
as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personal\
ly identifying
data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and acces\
s to the vehicle
or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law
enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information i\
f they have access
to the vehicle or the EDR.

Mazda will not disclose any of the data recorded in an EDR to a third pa\
rty unless:
  A written agreement from the vehicle owner or the lessee is obtained  Offi cially requested by the police or other law enforcement authorities  Used as a defense for Mazda in a lawsuit, claim, or arbitration  Ordered by a judge or court
However, if necessary Mazda will:   Use the data for research on Mazda vehicle performance, including safety\
.  Disclose the data or the summarized data to a third party for research p\
urposes without
disclosing vehicle or owner identi fi cation information.

Tire Information (U.S.A.)
M S or M/S: Mud and Snow
AT: All Terrain.
AS: All Season. The “M
S” or “M/S” indicates that the tire has some functional use in \
mud
and snow.
U.S. DOT Tire Identifi cation Number (TIN)
This begins with the letters “DOT” which indicates the tire meets \
all federal standards. The
next two numbers or letters are the plant code where it was manufactured\
, and the last four
numbers represent the week and year the tire was manufactured. For examp\
le, the numbers
457 means the 45st week of 1997. After 2000 the numbers go to four digits. For example,
the number 2102 means the 21th week of 2002. The other numbers are marketing codes
used at the manufacturer's discretion. This information is used to contact consumers if a tire
defect requires a recall.
Tire Ply Composition and Materials Used
The number of plies indicates the number of layers of rubber-coated fabric in the tire.
In general, the greater the number of plies, the more weight a tire can \
support. Tire
manufacturers also must indicate the tire materials, which include steel\
, nylon, polyester,
and other.
Maximum Load Rating
This number indicates the maximum load in kilograms and pounds that can \
be carried by the
tire.
Maximum Permissible Infl ation Pressure
This number is the greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be p\
ut in the tire under
normal driving conditions.
Tread Wear, Traction and Temperature Grades
Tread wear: The tread wear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of t\
he tire
when tested under controlled conditions on a speci fi ed government test course. For example,
a tire graded 150 would wear one and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on\
the government
course as a tire graded 100.
Traction: The traction grades, from highest to lowest are AA, A, B, and C. The grades
represent the tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under c\
ontrolled conditions
on specifi ed government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have
poor traction performance.
Temperature: The temperature grades are A (the highest), B and C, representing the
tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate\
heat when tested under
controlled conditions on a speci fi ed indoor laboratory test wheel.
Snow Tires
In some heavy snow areas, local governments may require true snow tires,\
those with very
deeply cut tread. These tires should only be used in pairs or placed on all four wheels. M\
ake
sure you purchase snow tires that are the same size and construction typ\
e as the other tires
on your vehicle.
