If you must run the engine while working
under the hood, make certain that you
remove all jewelry (especially rings,
bracelets, watches, and necklaces) and all
neckties, scarves, and similar loose clothing
before getting near the engine or cooling
fan which may turn on unexpectedly:
Working under the hood with the engine
running is dangerous. It becomes even
more dangerous when you wear jewelry,
loose clothing or have long hair or a long
beard.
Either can become entangled in moving
parts and result in injury.
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 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 leave items in the engine
compartment:
After you have finished checking or doing
servicing in the engine compartment, do
not forget and leave items such as tools or
rags in the engine compartment.
Tools or other items left in the engine
compartment could cause engine damage
or a fire leading to an unexpected accident.
Hood
▼ Hood
WA R N I N G
Always check that the hood is closed and
securely locked:
A hood that is not closed and securely
locked is dangerous as it could fly open
while the vehicle is moving and block the
driver's vision which could result in a
serious accident.
▼Opening the Hood
1. With the vehicle
parked, pull the
release handle to unlock the hood.

2. Insert your hand into the hood opening, slide the latch lever to the
left, and lift up the hood.

3. Grasp the support rod in the paddedarea and secure it in the support rod
hole indicated by the arrow to hold the
hood open.

1. Pad
2. Support rod
▼Closing the Hood
1. Check under the hood area to make
certain all filler caps are in place and
all loose items (e.g. tools, oil
containers, etc.) have been removed.
2. Lift the hood, grasp the padded area onthe support rod, and secure the support
rod in the clip. Ve rify that the support
rod is secured in the clip before closing
the hood.

1. Clip

3. Lower the hood slowly to a height of about 20 cm (7.9 in) above its closed
position and then let it drop.
CAUTION
When closing the hood, do not push it
excessively such as by applying your
weight. Otherwise, the hood could be
deformed.

Engine Coolant
▼Inspecting Coolant Level
WA R N I N G
Do not use a match or live flame in the
engine compartment. DO NOT ADD
COOLANT WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT:
A hot engine is dangerous. If the engine has
been running, parts of the engine
compartment can become very hot. You
could be burned. Carefully inspect the
engine coolant in the coolant reservoir, but
do not open it.
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 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 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.
NOTE
Changing the coolant should be done by
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Inspect the antifreeze protection and
coolant level in the coolant reservoir at
least once a year―at the beginning of the
winter season―and before traveling where
temperatures may drop below freezing.

Inspect the condition and connections of
all cooling system and heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.

The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the FULL and LOW
marks on the coolant reservoir when the
engine is cool.

If it is at or near LOW, add enough coolant
to the coolant reservoir to provide freezing
and corrosion protec tion and to bring the
level to FULL.
Securely tighten the coolant reservoir tank
cap after adding coolant.

Key Battery Replacement
▼Key Battery Replacement

inoperable and the operation indicator
light does not flash, the battery may be
dead.

attery before the
transmitter becomes unusable.
CAUTION
 Make sure the battery is installed
correctly. Battery leakage could occur if it
is not installed correctly.
 When replacing the battery, be careful
not to touch any of the internal circuitry
and electrical terminals, bend the
electrical terminals, or get dirt in the
transmitter as the transmitter could be
damaged.
 There is the danger of explosion if the
battery is not correctly replaced.
 Dispose of used batteries according to
the following instructions.
 Insulate the plus and minus terminals
of the battery using cellophane or
equivalent tape.
 Never disassemble.
 Never throw the battery into fire or

Fuses
▼Fuses
Your vehicle's electrical system is
protected by fuses.

If any lights, accessori
es, or controls do
not work, inspect the appropriate circuit
protector. If a fuse has blown, the inside
element will be melted.

If the same fuse blows again, avoid using
that system and consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
▼ Fuse Replacement
Replacing the fuses on
the vehicle's left
side
If the electrical system does not work, first
inspect the fuses on the vehicle's left side.

1. Make sure the ignition is switched off,
and other switches are off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover.
3. Pull the fuse straight out with the fuse puller provided on the fuse block
located in the engine compartment.
4. Inspect the fuse and replace it if it isblown.
1. Normal
2. Blown

5. Insert a new fuse of the same amperage rating, and make sure it fits
tightly. If it does not fit tightly, have an
expert install it. We recommend an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
If you have no spare fuses, borrow one
of the same rating from a circuit not
essential to vehicle operation, such as
the audio or accessory socket circuit.
CAUTION
Always replace a fuse with a genuine
Mazda fuse or equivalent of the same
rating. Otherwise you may damage the
electric system.
6. Reinstall the cover and make sure that it is securely installed.
