Parking in an Emergency
The hazard warning lights should always
be used when you stop on or near a
roadway in an emergency.

The hazard warning lights warn other
drivers that your vehicle is a traffic hazard
and that they must take extreme caution
when near it.

Depress the hazard warning flasher and all
the direction indicators will flash. The
hazard warning indicator lights in the
instrument cluster flash simultaneously.
NOTE
•The direction indicators do not work
when the hazard warning lights are on.
•Check local regulations about the use of
hazard warning lights while the vehicle
is being towed to verify that it is not in
violation of the law.

WARNING
Never operate the compressor above
300 kPa (3.1 kgf/ c m
2, 3 bar, 43.5 psi):
Operating the compressor above 300
kPa (3.1 kgf/cm
2, 3 bar, 43.5 psi) is
dangerous. When the inflation pressure
rises above 300 kPa (3.1 kgf/cm
2, 3 bar,
43.5 psi), heated air will be exhausted
from the back of the compressor and
you could be burned.
NOTE
•Check the tyre inflation pressure
label (driver's door frame) for the
correct tyre inflation pressure.
•Do not use the compressor for
longer than 10 minutes because
using the compressor for long
periods could damage it.
•If the tyre does not inflate, repair of
the tyre may not be possible. If the
tyre does not reach the correct
inflation pressure within a 10-minute
period, it probably has received
more extensive damage. When this
happens, the emergency flat tyre
repair kit cannot be used to repair
the tyre. Contact an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
•If the tyre has been over-inflated,
loosen the screw cap on the
compressor and bleed some of the
air out.
16. When the tyre has been inflated to the proper inflation pressure, turn the
compressor switch off and remove the
compressor hose from the tyre valve.
17. Install the tyre valve cap.
18. Put the emergency flat tyre repair kit in the boot and continue driving.
CAUTION
Drive carefully to an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer and keep the vehicle
speed below 80 km/h (50 mph).
 If the vehicle is driven 80 km/h (50
mph) or higher, the vehicle might
begin to vibrate.
NOTE
(With Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System)
If the tyre is not properly inflated, the
tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light will illuminate (page
4-42).
19. After driving the vehicle for 10 minutes or 5 km (3 miles), check the
tyre pressure with the tyre pressure
gauge equipped with the compressor. If
the tyre pressure ha s fallen below the
correct tyre pressure, inflate the tyre to
the correct pressure again following
the steps from number 14.
CAUTION
 If the tyre inflation pressure falls
below 130 kPa (1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar,
18.9 psi), repair cannot be done with
the repair kit. Park the vehicle on a
level surface off the right-of-way and
contact an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.

Overheating
If the temperature gauge indicates
overheating or the high engine coolant
temperature warning light turns on, the
vehicle loses power, or you hear a loud
knocking or pinging noise, the engine is
probably too hot.
WA R N I N G
Pull over to a safe location, then switch
the ignition 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 bonnet ONLY after steam is no
longer escaping from the engine:
Steam from an overheated engine is
dangerous. The escaping steam could
seriously burn you.
If the temperature gauge indicates
overheating or the high engine coolant
temperature warning light turns on:

1. Drive safely to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way.
2. Put a vehicle with an automatic transaxle in park (P), a manual
transaxle in neutral.
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 bonnet and start the engine.

If neither coolant nor steam is
escaping:
Open the bonnet 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 expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
6. Make sure the cooling fan is operating, then turn off the engine after the
temperature has decreased.
