2024 MAZDA CX90 fuel

Starting a Flooded Engine
If the engine stops unexpectedly, it
may be flooded (excessive fuel in the
engine).

Follow this procedure:

1. If the engine does not start within 5seconds on the first try, wait 10
seconds and try again.
2. Make sure the parking brake is on.
3. Depress the accelerator all the way
and hold it there.
4. Depress the brake pedal, then press the power switch. If the engine
starts, release the accelerator
immediately because the engine
will suddenly rev up.
5. If the engine fails to start, crank it without depressing the accelerator.

If the engine still does not start using
the previous procedure, have your
vehicle inspected by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.

Inspecting Engine Oil
CAUTION
Do not overfill the engine oil. This may
cause engine damage.

Use center display screen indication to
inspect the engine oil level.
1. Make sure the hood is closed.
2. Start the hybrid system.
3. Select “Information” on the Home screen to display the vehicle status
monitor.
4. Select “Vehicle Status Monitor”.
5. Select “Engine Oil Level”.
6. Select “Start”. The engine starts and measurement
of the engine oil level begins. Do
not depress the accelerator pedal
during the measurement.
NOTE
If measurement conditions not
shown on the display are not met
such as when warm-up operation
has not been completed due to low
outdoor temperatures, the
measurement error screen may be
displayed. In this case, drive the
vehicle using the engine for a
certain period of time to complete
the warm-up operation and repeat
the procedure.

7. Switch the vehicle power OFF.
NOTE
After the measurement is
completed, the engine does not
stop automatically.

Inspecting the Tires
About Tires
For reasons of proper performance,
safety, and better energy efficiency,
always maintain recommended tire
inflation pressures and stay within the
recommended load limits and weight
distribution.
WARNING
Using Different Tire Types.
Driving your vehicle with different
types of tires is dangerous. It could
cause poor handling and poor braking;
leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the
temporary spare tire, use only the
same type tires (radial, bias-belted,
bias-type) on all four wheels.
Using Wrong-Sized Tires.
Using any other tire size than what is
specified for the vehicle (page
10-71)is dangerous. It could seriously
affect ride, handling, ground
clearance, tire clearance, and
speedometer calibration. This could
cause you to have an accident. Use
only tires that are the correct size
specified for the vehicle.

Inspecting tire inflation pressure
WARNING
Always inflate the tires to the correct
pressure.
Overinflation or underinflation of tires
is dangerous. Adverse handling or
unexpected tire failure could result in a
serious accident.
Refer to Tires on page 10-71.
Use only a Mazda-genuine tire valve
cap.
Use of a non-genuine part is
dangerous as the correct tire air
pressure cannot be maintained if the
tire valve becomes damaged. If the
vehicle is driven under this condition,
the tire air pressure will decrease
which could result in a serious
accident. Do not use any part for the
tire valve cap that is not a
Mazda-genuine part.
Inspect all tire pressures monthly
(including the spare) when the tires are
cold. Maintain recommended
pressures for the best ride, handling ,
and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the specification charts (page
10-71).
NOTE
Cold inflation pressure
The cold inflation pressure is the
pressure measured under ambient
temperatures before the vehicle is
driven.
Maximum inflation pressure
The maximum inflation pressure is
the upper limit of the cold inflation
pressure designated by the tire
manufacturer.
Recommended inflation pressure
The recommended inflation pressure
is the cold inflation pressure
necessary for maintaining the
performance of your Mazda.
Underinflation or overinflation can
cause a harsh ride, reduced fuel
economy, a greater possibility of
damage from road hazards, uneven
and accelerated tire wear, and poor
sealing of the tire bead, which will
deform the wheel and cause
separation of tire from rim.
