•The power supply is
interrupted (blown fuse or
the battery is disconnected).
• The vehicle is driven over
999.9 km (miles).

Normal range
Water Temperature Gauge
This gauge shows the temperature of
the engine coolant.
If the needle exceeds normal range
toward H, it indicates overheating.
CAUTION
!
Driving with an overheated engine
can cause serious engine damage
(page 6-2).

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).

Engine Coolant
Inspecting coolant level
WARNING
!
Hot Engine:A hot engine is dangerous. If the
engine has been running, parts of
the engine compartment can
become very hot. You could be
burned. Don’ t inspect the coolant
system or add coolant when the
engine is hot.
Inspect the antifreeze protection and
coolant level in the coolant reservoir at
least once a year—at the beginning of
the winter season—and before
traveling where temperatures may
drop below freezing.
Inspect the condition and connections
of all cooling system and heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.
The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the F and L
marks on the coolant reservoir when
the engine is cool.

If it ’s at or near L, add enough coolant
to the coolant reservoir to provide
freezing and corrosion protection and
to bring the level to F.

Drain plug
3. With the drain plug loose but notfully removed, flush out the system
with running water.
4. Drain the system completely and retighten the plug. 5. Fill the radiator (to the top of the
filler neck) and then the coolant
reservoir (to F) with as much
ethylene-glycol-based coolant and
water as necessary to provide
protection from freezing and
corrosion.
In extremely cold climates, add the
amount recommended by the
coolant manufacturer.
6. Reinstall the cooling system cap.
7. Run the engine at idle for about 10 minutes. 8. Then do this:
•Run the engine at 2,500 rpm for
about 5 minutes.
• Increase the engine speed to
3,000 rpm for about 5 seconds
and then release the accelerator.
• Do this 4 or 5 times.
• Make sure the engine
temperature gauge does not
reach the HOT zone.
After turning off the engine, inspect
the drain plug and the water hoses
for leaks.
