2022 MAZDA MODEL CX-5 climate control

Air intake selector
Outside or recirculated air positions can be
selected. Press the switch to select outside/
recirculated air positions.
Recirculated air position (
)
Outside air is shut off. Air within the
vehicle is recirculated. Use this position
when going through tunnels, driving in
congested traffic (high engine exhaust
areas), or when quick cooling is desired.
Outside air position (
)
Outside air is allowe d to enter the cabin.
Use this position for ventilation or
windshield defrosting.
WARNING
Do not use the position in cold or rainy
weather:
Using the
position in cold or rainy
weather is dangerous as it will cause the
windows to fog up. Your vision will be
hampered, which could lead to a serious
accident.
NOTE
The recirculated air position is the
default position whenever the ignition is
switched ON, the climate control system
is on, and the outside temperature
exceeds about 73°F (23 ℃).
To exit the default recirculated air
position, press the air intake selector
switch to select th e outside air position.
When the air intake selector switch is set
to the outside air position and the
outside temperature exceeds about 73°F
(23℃), the climate control system may
automatically select the recirculated air
position to improve the efficiency of the
climate control system.
SYNC (Synchronized Temperature)
switch
Use the SYNC switch to change the mode
between the individual operation (driver
and passenger) and interconnection
(simultaneous) modes.
Interconnection mode (indicator light
turns on)
The set temperature for the driver and
front passenger is controlled
simultaneously.
Individual operation mode (indicator
light turns off)
The set temperature can be controlled
individually for the driver and front
passenger.
Windshield defroster switch
Press the switch to defrost the windshield
and front door windows.
Refer to Windshield Defrosting and
Defogging on page 5-12.
Rear window defogger switch
Press the rear window defogger switch to
defrost the rear window.
Refer to Rear Window Defogger on page
4-83.

▼Operation of Automatic Air
Conditioner
1. Press the AUTO switch. Selection of
the airflow mode, air intake selector
and amount of airflow will be
automatically controlled.
2. Use the temperature control dial to
select a desired temperature.
If you want to set the temperature on
the front passenger's side separately
from the driver's side, turn the front
passenger temperature control dial to
switch the mode automatically to the
individual operation mode and set the
temperature for the front passenger's
side.
To turn off the system, press the power
switch.
NOTE
Set the control dial to the recommended
temperature of 22 °C (72 °F), and then
adjust it as desired.
Setting the temperature to maximum hot
or cold will not provide the desired
temperature at a faster rate.
When selecting heat, the system will
restrict airflow until the engine has
warmed to prevent cold air from
blowing out of the vents.
▼ Windshield Defrosting and
Defogging
Press the windshield
defroster switch.
In this position, the outside air position is
automatically selected, and the air
conditioner automatical ly turns on. The air
conditioner will directly dehumidify the
air to the front wi ndshield and side
windows on page 5-4.
Airflow amount will be increased.
WA R N I N G
Set the temperature control to the hot or
warm position when defogging (
position):
Using the
position 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.
NOTE
Use the temperature control dial to
increase the air flow temperature and
defog the windshield more quickly.

Uniform Tire Quality Grading System (UTQGS)
This information relates to the tire grading system developed by the U.S. National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration for grading t ires by tread wear, traction, and temperature
performance.
▼ Tr e a d We a r
The tread wear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested
under controlled conditions on a
specified government test course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear on e-and-a-half times as well on the government
course as a tire graded 100.

The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however,
and may depart significantly from the norm because of variations in driving habits, service
practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.
▼ Traction-AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C. These grades represent the
tire's ability to stop on wet pavement as meas
ured under controlled conditions on specified
government test surfaces of asphalt and conc rete. A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight ahead) traction tests and
does not include acceleration cornering (turning), hydroplaning, or peak traction
characteristics.
▼ Te m p e r a t u r e - A , B , C
The temperature grades A (the highest), B, and C, represent the tire's resistance to the
generation of heat and its abili
ty to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions
on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire
life, and excessive temperatures can lead to sudden tire failure.

Grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger vehicle tires must meet
under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher
levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.
