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.

cells because hydrogen gas is
produced from open lead-acid battery
cells while charging the lead-acid
battery or adding lead-acid battery
fl uid:
Flames and sparks near open lead-acid
battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen
gas, produced during normal lead-acid
battery operation, could ignite and

cause serious burns and injuries. Keep
all flames including cigarettes and
sparks away from open lead-acid
battery cells.
NOTE
Before performing lead-acid battery
maintenance, remove the lead-acid
battery cover.
