Emergency Starting Jump-Starting
Jump-starting is dangerous if done
incorrectly. So follow the procedure
carefully. If you feel unsure about
jump-starting, we strongly recommend
that you have a competent service
technician do the work.
CAUTION
!
Use only a 12-volt booster system.
You can damage a 12-volt starter
motor, ignition system, and other
electrical parts beyond repair with
a 24-volt power supply (two
12-volt batteries in series or a
24-volt motor generator set).
WARNING
!
Battery-Related Explosion:Flames and sparks near open
battery cells are dangerous.
Hydrogen gas, produced during
normal battery operation, could
ignite and cause the battery to
explode. An exploding battery can
cause serious burns and injuries.
Keep all flames, including
cigarettes, and sparks away from
open battery cells.

NOTEThe check engine light comes on
when a ROOM fuse blows or
when a ROOM fuse is removed.
When installing a ROOM fuse,
turn the ignition switch off and
wait 60 seconds before installing
the fuse. If the check engine light
comes on and doesn’t go off, there
is a problem other than the fuse

If it doesn’ t, have an Authorized
Mazda Dealer install it.
If you have no spare fuses, borrow one

essential to vehicle operation, such as
the RADIO circuit.

Always replace a fuse with one of
the same rating. Otherwise you
may damage the electric system.
