Ta k i n g A c t i o n w i t hOverheating
If the engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates overheating and the
high engine coolant temperature
warning light is displayed, the vehicle
loses power or you hear a loud
knocking or pinging noise, the engine
is probably too hot.
WARNING
Pull over to a safe location, then
switch the vehicle power 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.
Open the hood ONLY after steam is
no longer escaping from the engine.
Steam from an overheated engine is
dangerous. The escaping steam could
seriously burn you.

1. Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way.
2. Shift into park (P).
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. Turn off the air conditioner.
5. Check whether coolant or steam is escaping from the engine
compartment.

If steam is coming from the engine
compartment:
Do not go near the front of the
vehicle. Stop the engine.
Wait until the steam dissipates,
then open the hood and start the
engine.

If neither coolant nor steam is
escaping:
Open the hood and idle the engine
until it cools.
CAUTION
If the cooling fan does not operate
while the engine is running, the
engine temperature will increase.
Stop the engine and call an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
6. Make sure the cooling fan is operating, then turn off the engine
after the temperature has
decreased.
7. When cool, check the coolant level. If it is low, look for coolant leaks
from the radiator and hoses.

Mounting the Spare Tire
1. Remove dirt and grime from themounting surfaces of the wheel and
hub, including the hub bolts, with a
cloth.

WARNING
Make sure the mounting surfaces
of the wheel, hub and lug nuts are
clean before changing or replacing
tires.
When changing or replacing a tire,
not removing dirt and grime from
the mounting surfaces of the wheel,
hub and hub bolts is dangerous.
The lug nuts could loosen while
driving and cause the tire to come
off, resulting in an accident.
2. Mount the spare tire.
3. Install the lug nuts with the beveled edge inward; tighten them by hand.

WARNING
Do not apply oil or grease to lug
nuts and bolts and do not tighten
the lug nuts beyond the
recommended tightening torque.
Applying oil or grease to lug nuts
and bolts is dangerous. The lug nuts
could loosen while driving and
cause the tire to come off, resulting
in an accident. In addition, lug nuts
and bolts could be damaged if
tightened more than necessary.
4. Turn the lug wrench
counterclockwise and lower the
vehicle.
5. Use the lug wrench to tighten the nuts in the order shown.

WARNING
Always securely and correctly
tighten the lug nuts.
Improperly or loosely tightened lug
nuts are dangerous. The wheel
could wobble or come off. This
could result in loss of vehicle
control and cause a serious
accident.
Be sure to reinstall the same nuts
you removed or replace them with
metric nuts of the same
configuration.
Because the wheel studs and lug
nuts on your Mazda have metric
threads, using a non-metric nut is
dangerous. On a metric stud, it
would not secure the wheel and
would damage the stud, which
could cause the wheel to slip off
and cause an accident.
