Operating Tips for CD Player/
In-Dash CD Changer
 Condensation phenomenon
Immediately after turning on the
heater when the vehicle is cold, the
CD or optical components (prism and
lens) in the CD player/changer may
become clouded with condensation.
At this time, the CD will eject
immediately when placed in the unit.
A clouded CD can be corrected
simply by wiping it with a soft cloth.
Clouded optical components will clear
naturally in about an hour. Wait for
normal operation to return before
attempting to use the unit.

J70E4076•The CD player/changer has been
designed to play CDs bearing the
identification logo as shown. No
other discs can be played.

Form No. 8P95-EA-00G
Driving Your Mazda5-122J45T4071•Be sure never to touch the signal
surface when handling the CDs.
Pick up a CD by grasping the outer
edge or the edge of the hole and the
outer edge. •
Do not stick paper or tape on the
CD. Avoid scratching the reverse
side (the side without a label).
• Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can
decrease the amount of light
reflected from the signal surface,
thus affecting sound quality. If the
CD should become soiled, gently
wipe it with a soft cloth from the
center of the CD to the edge. •
Do not use record sprays, antistatic
agents, or household spray
cleaners. Volatile chemicals such as
benzine and thinner can also
damage the surface of the CD and
must not be used. Anything that
can damage, warp, or fog plastic
should never be used to clean CDs.
• CDs, like traditional audio records,
are made of plastic. To avoid
warping, keep the CDs in their
cases and do not store them where
they will be exposed to direct
sunlight.

OverheatingIf the temperature gauge indicates
overheating, if you experience power
loss, or if you hear a loud knocking or
pinging noise, the engine is probably
too hot.
If this happens:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road
and park off the right-of-way.
2. Set an automatic transaxle in P, a manual transaxle in neutral. Apply
the parking brake.
3. Turn off the air conditioner.

WARNING
!
Steam from Overheated Engine:Steam from an overheated engine
is dangerous. The escaping steam
could seriously burn you. Open
the hood ONLY after steam is no
longer escaping from the engine.4. Check whether coolant or steam isescaping from the hood or from the
engine compartment.
If steam is coming from the engine
compartment, don’ t go near the
front of the vehicle. Stop the
engine. Then turn the ignition
switch to the ON position without
starting the engine. The radiator cooling fans will start to cool the
engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is
escaping, open the hood and idle
the engine until it cools. If this
doesn’
t lower the temperature, stop
the engine and let it cool.
5. Check the coolant level. If it’ s low, look for leaks in the
radiator hoses and connections,
heater hoses and connections,
radiator, and water pump.
If you find a leak or other damage,
or if coolant is still leaking, stop the
engine and call an Authorized
Mazda Dealer. If you find no problems, the engine
is cool, and no leaks are obvious,
carefully add coolant as required
(page 8-21).
