▼Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Displays the engine coolant temperature.
The blue range of the gauge indicates that
the engine coolant temperature is low, and
the red range of the gauge indicates that
the engine coolant temperature is high and
overheating.

CAUTION
When the engine coolant temperature
gauge needle is in the red range, the engine
coolant temperature is extremely high.
Drive slowly to reduce engine load. If the
engine coolant temperature gauge needle
is in the red range, there is the possibility of
overheating. Park the vehicle in a safe
place immediately and take appropriate
measures.
Refer to Overheating on page 7-21.
NOTE
If the engine or engine coolant
temperature is high or low, the engine
output may be restricted to protect the
engine.
During normal driving, the engine
coolant temperature stabilizes at 100 °C
(210 °F) or less, and the gauge indicates
a range lower than 100 °C (210 °F).
▼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.

1. Full
2. 1/4 Full
3. Empty

If the low fuel warning light illuminates or
the fuel level is very low, refuel as soon as
possible.
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.
Refer to Low Fuel Warning Indication/
Warning Light on page 7-34.
NOTE
After refueling, 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 direction of the arrow ()
indicates that the fuel -filler lid is on the
left side of the vehicle.
▼ Dashboard Illumination
When the lights are turned on with the
ignition switched ON, the brightness of
the dashboard illumination is dimmed.
However, when the light sensor detects
that the surrounding area is bright such as
when the lights are turned on in the
daytime, the dashboard illumination does
not dim.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched ON in the
early evening or at dusk, the dashboard
illumination is dimmed for several
seconds until the light sensor detects the
brightness of the surrounding area,
however, the dimming may cancel after
the brightness is detected.
When the lights are turned on, the
lights-on indicator light in the
instrument cluster turns on.
Refer to Headlights on page 4-44.
The brightness of the instrument panel and
dashboard illuminations can be adjusted
by pressing the dashboard illumination
switch while the dashbo ard illumination is
dimmed.
The brightness increases by pressing the
+ switch.
The brightness decreases by pressing
the - switch. If you press the - switch
while the instrument cluster is at
maximum dimness, a sound is activated
to notify you that the current dimmer
setting is at maximum dimness.

Function for canceling illumination
dimmer
The illumination dimmer can be canceled
by pressing the + switch while the
instrument cluster is at maximum dimness
and while the ignition is switched ON. If
you press the + switch again while the
illumination dimmer is canceled, a sound
is activated to notify you that it is
canceled. If the instrument cluster's
visibility is reduced due to glare from
surrounding brightness, cancel the
illumination dimmer.
NOTE
When the illumina tion dimmer is
canceled, the instrument cluster cannot
be dimmed even if the lights are turned
on.
When the illumina tion dimmer is
canceled, the screen in the center
display switches to constant display of
the daytime screen.
▼ Outside Tempera
ture Display
When the ignition is switched ON, the
outside temperature is displayed.

NOTE
Under the following conditions, the
outside temperature display may differ
from the actual outside temperature
depending on the surroundings and
vehicle conditions:
Significantly cold or hot temperatures.
Sudden changes in outside
temperature.
The vehicle is parked.
The vehicle is driven at low speeds.
Changing the Temperature Unit of the
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature unit can be
switched between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Settings can be changed by operating the
center display screen.
Refer to the Settings section in the Mazda
Connect Owner's Manual.
NOTE
When the temperature unit indicated in the
outside temperature display is changed,
the temperature unit indicated in the
engine coolant gauge display changes in
conjunction with it.

▼Distance-to-empty
This 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 sufficient amount
of remaining driving distance before
refueling is required
, refuel as soon as
possible if the fuel level is very low or
the low fuel warning light illuminates.
The display will 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 first
purchasing your vehicle or the
information is deleted when the battery
cables are disconnected, the actual
distance-to empty/range may differ from
the amount indicated.
▼ Average Fuel Economy
The average fuel economy is calculated
every minute from the total traveled
distance on the trip meter and the total fuel
consumption, and the average fuel
economy for either drive information
display is displayed.
The average fuel economy for TRIP A is
indicated by a red arrow in the
instantaneous fuel economy display.

The average fuel economy and trip meters
can be reset by pressi
ng the INFO switch
for 1.5 seconds or more while in each
mode. After the data is cleared, the fuel
consumption is recalculated and the - - -
km/L (- - - mpg) for the 1 minute prior to
it being displayed is indicated.
▼ Current Fuel Economy
This displays the current fuel economy by
calculating the amount of fuel
consumption and the distance traveled.
