heating MAZDA CX90 2024 User Guide

If swaying occurs, firmly grip the steering wheel and reduce speed immediately, but
gradually.
Steer straight ahead. If no extreme correction of steering or braking is made, the
combination of less speed and firm steering will result in stability.
Backing up
Backing a vehicle with a trailer requires practice and patience. Back slowly, and have
a helper outside at the rear of the trailer to reduce the risk of an accident.
To turn the trailer, place your hand at th e bottom of the steering wheel and turn it in
the direction you want the trailer to go. Make only slight movements to prevent
sharp or prolonged turning.
Ascending a hill
Shift into a lower gear to reduce the poss ibility of overloading or overheating the
engine, or both.
Descending a hill
Shift into a lower gear and use engine compression as a braking effect.
Pa r k i n g
Always make sure the tires of the trailer and the tow vehicle are blocked while
parked.
Apply the parking brake firmly and put the transmission in P.
Avoid parking on an incline, but if you must, follow these instructions:
1. Depress and hold down the brake pedal.
2. Have a helper put wheel blocks against the downhill side of all vehicle and trailer tires.
3. Then release the brake pedal slowly until the blocks bear the load.
If the grade is downhill, turn the steering wheel so that the front of the front
tires face the curb.
If it is uphill, face the rear of the front tires against the curb.
4. Firmly apply the parking brake.
5. Shift the transmission into P, and stop the engine.
To restart after parking on an incline:
1. With the transmission in P, start the engine. (Be sure to depress and hold the brake pedal.)
2. Shift into gear.
3. Release the parking brake (also the foot brake) and pull away from the wheel blocks. Stop; apply the parking brake and shift into P.
4. Have a helper retrieve the wheel blocks.
Maintenance
If you tow a trailer frequently, have your vehicle serviced as shown in Scheduled
Maintenance (page 9-4).

NOTE
Complete the programming within
30 seconds.
8. Return to the vehicle and firmly press and hold the Homelink
button, and then release it after two
seconds have passed. Repeat the
“press/hold/release” sequence a
second time, and, depending on
the brand of the garage door
opener (or other rolling code
equipped device), repeat this
sequence a third time to complete
the programming process.
Press the programmed HomeLink
button and make sure that the
HomeLink System operates.
If the status indicator arrows are
flashing , refer to Programming

Gate operator/Canadian
Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require
transmitter signals to “time-out” (or
quit) after several seconds of
transmission ― which may not be long
enough for HomeLink to pick up the
signal during programming. Similar to
this Canadian law, some U.S. gate
operators are designed to “time-out”
in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or are having
difficulties programming a gate
operator by using the programming
procedures (regardless of where you
live), replace Step 4 of Programming
the HomeLink System with the
following:
NOTE
If programming a garage door opener
or gate operator, it is advised to unplug
the device during the “cycling” process
to prevent possible overheating.
While the indicator light is flashing in
amber, press the button on the
hand-held transmitter for 2 seconds
and release it repeatedly until the
indicator light changes from amber to
green.
Go back to Step 5 of Programming the
HomeLink System to complete the
procedure.
Operating the HomeLink System
Press the programmed HomeLink
button to operate a programmed
device.
Reprogramming the HomeLink system
To program a device to HomeLink
using a HomeLink button previously
trained, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired
HomeLink button. Do not release
the button.
2. After 20 seconds, the indicator light
flashes in amber. After the indicator
light flashes, release the HomeLink
button.

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.

CX-90_8KG7-EA-22L_Edition1_new 2022-11-17 16:05:04

If you find a leak or other damage, or
if coolant is still leaking:
Stop the engine and call an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
1. Cooling system cap
2. Coolant reservoir
3. Cooling fan
4. Radiator
If you find no problems, the engine is
cool, and no leaks are obvious:
Carefully add coolant as required
(page 9-14).
CAUTION
If the engine continues to overheat or
frequently overheats, have the cooling
system inspected. The engine could be
seriously damaged unless repairs are
made. Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
