The heat from the seat warmer may be
too hot for the following people and
could cause a low-temperature burn.
Infants, small children, elderly
people, and physically challenged
people
People with delicate skin
People who are excessively fatigued
People who are intoxicated
People who have taken
sleep-inducing medicine such as
sleeping pills or cold medicine
Do not use the seat warmer with
anything having high
moisture-retention ability such as a
blanket or cushion on the seat:
The seat may be heated excessively
and cause a low-temperature burn.
Do not use the seat warmer even
when taking a short nap in the
vehicle:
The seat may be heated excessively
and cause a low-temperature burn.
Do not place heavy objects with sharp
projections on the seat, or insert
needles or pins into it:
This could cause the seat to become
excessively heated and result in injury
from a minor burn.
CAUTION
(Rear)
Before folding a rear seatback, make
sure that the rear seat warmer switch
is off. If a rear seatback is folded
while the rear seat warmer is in
operation, it may heat the seat
excessively and damage the seat
surface.

Engine Coolant
▼Inspecting Coolant Level
WARNING
Do not use a match or live flame in
the engine compartment. DO NOT
ADD COOLANT WHEN THE ENGINE
IS HOT:
A hot engine is dangerous. If the
engine has been running, parts of the
engine compartment can become very
hot. You could be burned. Carefully
inspect the engine coolant in the
coolant reservoir, but do not open it.
Pull over to a safe location, then
switch the ignition off 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 indefinitely even if
the engine has stopped and the engine
compartment temperature is high. You
could be hit by the fan and seriously
injured.
Do not remove either
cooling system cap when the engine
and radiator are hot:
When the engine 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 all cooling system and heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.
The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the F and L
marks on the coolant reservoir when
the engine is cool.
If it is at or near L, add enough coolant
to the coolant reservoir to provide
freezing and corrosion protection and
to bring the level to F.
Securely tighten the coolant reservoir
tank cap after adding coolant.
