2021 MAZDA MODEL CX-30 engine coolant

Rocking the Vehicle
▼Rocking the Vehicle
WARNING
Do not spin the wheels at more than
56 km/h (35 mph), and do not allow
anyone to stand behind a wheel when
pushing the vehicle:
When the vehicle is stuck, spinning the
wheels at high speed is dangerous. The
spinning tire could overheat and
explode. This could cause serious
injuries.
CAUTION
Too much rocking may cause
transmission failure, and tire damage.
If you must rock the vehicle to free it
from snow, sand or mud, depress the
accelerator slightly and slowly move
the shift lever/selector lever from 1 (D)
to R position.
Winter Driving
▼ Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tire
chains, window scraper,
flares, a small
shovel, jumper cables, and a small bag
of sand or salt.
Ask an Authorized Mazda Dealer to
check the following:
Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in
the radiator.
Refer to Engine Coolant on page
6-19.
Inspect the battery and its cables.
Cold reduces battery capacity.
Use an engine oil appropriate for the
lowest ambient temperatures that
the vehicle will be driven in (page
6-17).
Inspect the ignition system for
damage and loose connections.
Use washer fluid made with
antifreeze ―but do not use engine
coolant antifreeze for washer fluid
(page 6-21).
NOTE
Remove snow before driving. Snow
left on the windshield is dangerous
as it could obstruct vision.
Do not apply excessive force to a
window scraper when removing ice
or frozen snow on the mirror glass
and windshield.
Never use warm or hot water for
removing snow or ice from windows
and mirrors as it could result in the
glass cracking.

Cylinder Deact ivat ion
▼Cylinder Deact ivat ion
The cylinder deactivation is a function
designed to reduce fuel consumption
and improve fuel economy by
deactivating 2 out of the 4 cylinders
while driving. The function constantly
determines which is better for driving;
4 cylinders or 2 cylinders, regardless of
the driver's operations, and it performs
the switching automatically.
When the cylinder deactivation
function does not operate
The cylinder deactivation function
does not operate under the following
conditions.
The selector lever is in the P, N, or R
position (automatic transmission), or
1st gear (manual transmission).
The engine oil temperature or engine
coolant temperature is low.
After disconnecting the battery
terminals for some reason, such as
for battery replacement.

▼Odometer, Trip Meter and Trip
Meter Selector
You can switch between the odometer
and trip meter display using the TRIP
switch.

1. TRIP switch
2. Odometer display
3. Trip meter A display
4. Trip meter B display
Odometer
The odometer records the total
distance the vehicle has been driven.
Tr i p m e te r
The driving distance for a specified
interval is indicated. Two types (TRIP A,
TRIP B) of interval distance can be
measured.

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
filled.

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 can be reset by pressing
the TRIP switch for 1.5 seconds or
more while the trip meter is displayed.
NOTE
Only the trip meters record tenths of
kilometers (miles).
▼ 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 7-17.
NOTE
If the engine or engine coolant
temperature is high or low, the
engine output may be restricted to
protect the engine.
▼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 7-30.

CAUTION
If the air conditioner is used while
driving up long hills or in heavy traffic,
monitor the high engine coolant
temperature warning indication to see
if it is displayed (page 7-24).
The air conditioner may cause engine
overheating. If the warning indication
is displayed, turn the air conditioner
off (page 7-17).
NOTE
When maximum cooling is desired,
set the temperature control dial to
the extreme cold position and set
the air intake selector to the
recirculated air position, then turn
the fan control dial fully clockwise.
If warmer air is desired at floor level,
press the
switch and adjust the
temperature control dial to maintain
maximum comfort.
The air to the floor is warmer than air
to the face (except when the
temperature control dial is set at the
extreme hot or cold position).
▼ Ve n t i l a t i o n
1. Press the switch.
2. Set the air intake selector to the outside air position (indicator light
turns off).
3. Set the temperature control dial to
the desired position.
4. Set the fan control dial to the desired speed.
▼Windshield Defrosting and
Defogging
1. Press the switch.
2. Set the temperature control dial to the desired position.
3. Set the fan control dial to the desired speed.
4. If dehumidified heating is desired, turn on the air conditioner.
WARNING
Do not defog the windshield using the
switch with the temperature
control set to the cold position:
Using the
switch with the
temperature control set to the cold
position is dangerous as it will cause
the outside of the windshield to fog
up. Your vision will be hampered,
which could lead to a serious accident.
Set the temperature control to the hot
or warm position when using the
switch.
NOTE
Fogging on the windows clears up
more easily while the air conditioner
is on, but they will fog up more easily
if the air conditioner is turned off.
Be careful that the windows do not
fog up when doing any of the
following:
Switching to recirculate modeTurning off the air conditionerFor maximum defrosting, turn on the
air conditioner, set the temperature
control dial to the extreme hot
position, and turn the fan control
dial fully clockwise.
If warm air is desired at the floor,
press the
switch.
