MAZDA MODEL CX-5 2019 Owners Manual (in English)

▼Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge
Displays the engine coolant temperature.
The white gauge indicates that the engine
coolant temperature is low, and the red
gauge indicates that the engine coolant
temperature is high and overheating.

CAUTION
If the engine coolant temperature gauge
needle (white) flashes, there is a possibility
of overheating. Drive slowly to reduce
engine load until you can find a safe place
to stop the vehicle and wait for the engine
to cool down.
Refer to Overheating on page 7-18.
NOTE
(SKYACTIV-G 2.5T)
If the engine coolant temperature is high
or the engine is hot, the engine output
may be limited.
The temperature unit (Centigrade/
Fahrenheit) of the engine coolant gauge
display changes in conjunction with the
temperature unit of the outside
temperature display.
Refer to Personalization Features on
page 9-12.
During normal driving, the engine
coolant temperature stabilizes at 100 °C
(210 °F) or less, and the gauge indicates
a range lower than 100 °C (210 °F).
▼Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows approximately how
much fuel is remaining in the tank when
the ignition is switched ON. We
recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.

Full
1/4 Full
Empty
If the low fuel warni
ng light illuminates or
the fuel level is very low, refuel as soon as
possible.
Refer to Taking Action on page 7-32.
NOTE
After refueling, it may require some time
for the indicator to stabilize. In addition,
the indicator may deviate while driving
on a slope or curve since the fuel moves
in the tank.
The display indicating a quarter or less
remaining fuel has more segments to
show the remaining fuel level in greater
detail.

▼ Dashboard Illumination
(Without auto-light control)
When the lights are turned on with the
ignition switched ON, the brightness of
the dashboard illumination is dimmed.
(With auto-light control)
When the lights are turned on with the

the dashboard illumination is dimmed.
However, when the light sensor detects
that the surrounding area is bright such as
when the lights are turned on in the
daytime, the dashboard illumination does
not dim.
NOTE
(With auto-lig
ht control)
When the ignition is switched ON in the
early evening or at dusk, the dashboard
illumination is dimmed for several
seconds until the light sensor detects the
brightness of the surrounding area,
however, the dimming may cancel after
the brightness is detected.
When the lights are turned on, the
lights-on indicator light in the
instrument cluster turns on.
Refer to Headlights on page 4-71.
The brightness of the instrument cluster
and dashboard illuminations can be
adjusted by rotating the knob.
The brightness decreases by rotating the
knob to the left. A beep sound will be
heard when the knob has been rotated to
the maximum dim position.
The brightness increases by rotating the
knob to the right.
Dim

Function for canceling illumination
dimmer
The illumination dimmer can be canceled
by rotating the dashboard illumination
knob to the right until a beep sound is
heard while the instrument cluster is
dimmed with the ignition switched ON. If
the instrument cluster's visibility is
reduced due to glare from surrounding
brightness, cancel the illumination
dimmer.
NOTE
When the illumination dimmer is
canceled, the instrument cluster cannot
be dimmed even if the lights are turned
on.
When the illumination dimmer is
canceled, the screen in the center
display switches to constant display of
the daytime screen.

NOTE
Under the following conditions, the
outside temperature display may differ
from the actual outside temperature
depending on the surroundings and
vehicle conditions:
Significantly cold or hot temperatures.
Sudden changes in outside
temperature.
The vehicle is parked.
The vehicle is driven at low speeds.
Changing the Temperature Unit of the
Outside Temperature Display
The outside temperature unit can be
switched between Celsius and Fahrenheit.
Settings can be changed by operating the
center display screen.
Refer to Personalization Features on page
9-12.
NOTE
When the temperature unit indicated in the
outside temperature display is changed,
the temperature unit indicated in the
engine coolant gauge display changes in
conjunction with it.
▼ Trip Computer
The following information can be selected
by pressing the INFO switch with the
ignition switched ON.
Distance-to-empty mode
Average fuel economy mode
Current fuel economy mode
Compass mode
If you have any problems with your trip
computer, consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
Distance-to-empty mode
This mode displays the approximate
distance you can travel on the remaining
fuel based on the fuel economy.

The distance-to-empty will be calculated
and displayed every second.

NOTE
Even though the distance-to-empty
display may indicate a sufficient amount
of remaining driving distance before
refueling is required , refuel as soon as
possible if the fuel level is very low or
the low fuel warning light illuminates.
The display may not change unless you
add more than approximately 9 L (2.3
US gal, 1.9 Imp gal) of fuel.
The distance-to-empty is the
approximate remaining distance the
vehicle can be driven until all the
graduation marks in the fuel gauge
(indicating the remaining fuel supply)
disappear.
If there is no past fuel economy
information such as after first
purchasing your vehicle or the
information is deleted when the battery
cables are disconnected, the actual
distance-to empty/range may differ from
the amount indicated.

Average fuel economy mode
This mode displays the average fuel
economy by calculating the total traveled
distance and the total fuel consumption
since the vehicle was purchased or the past
data was reset. The average fuel economy
is calculated and displayed every minute.

To reset the displayed past data, press the
INFO switch for 1.5 seconds or longer.
After resetting the data, - - - L/100 km
(- - - mpg) is displayed for one minute
before the fuel economy is recalculated
and displayed.
NOTE
If TRIP A is reset using the trip meter
when the function which synchronizes
(resets) the fuel economy monitor and the
trip meter (TRIP A) is on, the displayed
past data is reset.
Current fuel economy mode
This mode displays the current fuel
economy by calculating the amount of fuel
consumption and the distance traveled.

Current fuel economy will be calculated
and displayed every 2 seconds.

When you've slowed to about 5 km/h (3
mph), - - - L/100 km (- - - mpg) will be
displayed.
Compass mode
The direction the vehicle is moving is
displayed in one of eight directions while
the vehicle is being driven.

WA R N I N G
Always adjust the display brightness and position with the vehicle stopped:
Adjusting the display brightness and position while driving the vehicle is dangerous as doing
so could distract your attention from the road ahead and lead to an accident.
CAUTION
Do not place beverages near the active driving display. If water or other liquids are splashed
on the active driving display, it could cause damage.
 Do not place objects above the active driving display or apply stickers to the dust-proof
sheet/optical receiver as they will cause interference.
 A sensor is integrated to control the display's luminosity. If the optical receiver is covered,
the display's luminosity will lower ma king the display difficult to view.
 Do not allow intense light to hit the optical receiver. Otherwise, it could cause damage.
NOTE
Wearing polarized sunglasses will reduce the visi bility of the active driving display due to
the characteristics of the display.
If the battery has been removed and re-installed or the battery voltage is low, the adjusted
position may deviate.
The display may be difficult to view or temporarily affected by weather conditions such as
