If you must run the EV system 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 cooling fan
which may turn on unexpectedly:
Working under the hood with the EV
system operating 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 power switch o ff 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 inde finitely even if
the EV system has stopped and the
motor compartment temperature is
high. You could be hit by the fan and
seriously injured.
Do not leave items in the motor
compartment:
After you have finished checking or
doing servicing in the motor
compartment, do not forget and leave
items such as tools or rags in the motor
compartment.
Tools or other items left in the motor
compartment could cause EV system
damage or a fire leading to an
unexpected accident.

Coolant
▼Inspecting Coolant Level
WARNING
Do not use a match or live
flame in
the motor compartment. DO NOT
ADD COOLANT WHEN THE EV
SYSTEM IS HOT :
A hot EV system is dangerous. If the EV
system has been running , parts of the
motor compartment can become very
hot. You could be burned. Carefully
inspect the EV system coolant in the
coolant reservoir, but do not open it.
Pull over to a safe location, then
switch the power switch o ff 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 inde finitely even if
the EV system has stopped and the
motor compartment temperature is
high. You could be hit by the fan and
seriously injured.
Do not remove either
cooling system cap when the EV
system and radiator are hot:
When the EV system 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 the cooling system.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.
The coolant should be between the
FULL and LOW marks on the coolant
reservoir when the EV system is cool.
If it is at or near LOW, add enough
coolant to the coolant reservoir to
provide freezing and corrosion
protection and to bring the level to
FULL.
Securely tighten the coolant reservoir
tank cap after adding coolant.
CAUTION
Radiator coolant will damage paint.
Rinse it
off quickly if spilled.

Wiper Blades
▼ Wiper Blades
CAUTION
Hot waxes applied by automatic car
washers have been known to
aff ect
the wiper's ability to clean windows.
An operation malfunction may occur
or the wiper
eff ectiveness may be
reduced if a water-repellent coating
is used.
To prevent damage to the wiper
blades, do not use gasoline,
kerosene, paint thinner, or other
solvents on or near them.
When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the power switch is
switched ON, the wipers may move
automatically in the following cases:
If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched.
If the windshield above the rain
sensor is wiped with a cloth.
If the windshield is struck with a
hand or other object.
If the rain sensor is struck with a
hand or other object from inside
the vehicle.
Be careful not to pinch hands or fi ngers as it may cause injury, or
damage the wipers. When washing
or servicing the vehicle, make sure
the wiper lever is in the OFF
