Fuses
Your vehicle's electrical system is
protected by fuses.

If any lights, accessories, or controls do
not work, inspect the appropriate circuit
protector. If a fuse has blown, the inside
element will be melted.

If the same fuse blows again, avoid using
that system and consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
Fuse Replacement
Replacing the fuses on the vehicle's left
side
If the electrical system does not work, fi rst
inspect the fuses on the vehicle's left side.


1. Make sure the ignition is switched off, and other switches are off.
2. Open the fuse panel cover.

3. Pull the fuse straight out with the
fuse puller provided on the fuse block
located in the engine compartment.


4. Inspect the fuse and replace it if it is blown.

Normal Blown

5. Insert a new fuse of the same amperage rating, and make sure it fi ts tightly. If
it does not fi t tightly, have an expert
install it. We recommend an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
If you have no spare fuses, borrow one of the same rating from a circuit not
essential to vehicle operation, such as
the AUDIO or OUTLET circuit.
CAUTION
Always replace a fuse with a genuine
Mazda fuse or equivalent of the same
rating. Otherwise you may damage
the electric system.

6. Reinstall the cover and make sure that it is securely installed.

Replacing the fuses under the hood
If the headlights or other electrical
components do not work and the fuses
in the cabin are normal, inspect the fuse
block under the hood. If a fuse is blown, it
must be replaced. Follow these steps:


1. Make sure the ignition is switched off, and other switches are off.
2. Remove the fuse block cover.


3. If any fuse but the MAIN fuse is blown, replace it with a new one of the
same amperage rating .

Normal Blown

WARNING
Do not replace the main fuse by
yourself. Have an Authorized Mazda
Dealer perform the replacement:
Replacing the fuse by yourself is
dangerous because the MAIN fuse
is a high current fuse. Incorrect
replacement could cause an electrical
shock or a short circuit resulting in a
fi r e .

4. Reinstall the cover and make sure that it is securely installed.

Maintenance and Care
Appearance Care
Maintaining the Finish
Washing
CAUTION
 When the wiper lever is in the
position and the ignition is switched ON,
the wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
 If the windshield above the rain sensor is touched or wiped with a
cloth.
 If the windshield is struck with a hand or other object from either outside or
inside the vehicle.
 Keep hands and scrapers clear of the windshield when the wiper lever is in the

position and the ignition is
switched ON as fi ngers could be pinched
or the wipers and wiper blades damaged
when the wipers activate automatically.
 If you are going to clean the windshield, be sure the wipers are turned off
completely (when it is most likely
that the engine is left running) this is
particularly important when clearing ice
and snow.
 Do not spray water in the engine compartment. Otherwise, it could result
in engine-starting problems or damage
to electrical parts.
 When washing and waxing the vehicle, be careful not to apply excessive force
to any single area of the vehicle roof.
Otherwise, you could dent the vehicle.

To help protect the fi nish from rust
and deterioration, wash your Mazda
thoroughly and frequently, at least once a
month, with lukewarm or cold water.
If the vehicle is washed improperly, the
paint surface could be scratched. Here are
some examples of how scratching could
occur.

Scratches occur on the paint surface when:
 
 The vehicle is washed without fi rst
rinsing off dirt and other foreign matter.
   The vehicle is washed with a rough, dry,
or dirty cloth.
   The vehicle is washed at a car wash that
uses brushes that are dirty or too stiff.
   Cleansers or wax containing abrasives
are used.

NOTE
   Mazda is not responsible for scratches
caused by automatic car washes or
improper washing.
  Scratches are more noticeable on
vehicles with darker paint fi nishes.

To minimize scratches on the vehicle's
paint fi nish:
  Rinse off any dirt or other foreign matter
using lukewarm or cold water before
washing.
   Use plenty of lukewarm or cold water
and a soft cloth when washing the
vehicle. Do not use a nylon cloth.
   Rub gently when washing or drying the
vehicle.
   Take your vehicle only to a car wash
that keeps its brushes well maintained.
   Do not use abrasive cleansers or wax
that contain abrasives.

If Trouble Arises
Overheating
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.
WARNING
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 indefi nitely 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.

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 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.

pressure warning beep sound is heard, it is dangerous to drive the vehicle at high
speeds, or perform sudden maneuvering or braking. Vehicle drivability could worsen
and result in an accident.
To determine if you have a slow leak or a fl at, pull over to a safe position where you can
