warning MAZDA MODEL CX-50 2023 Manual Online

CAUTION
When the engine coolant temperature
gauge needle is in the red range, the
engine coolant temperature is
extremely high. Drive slowly to reduce
engine load. If the engine coolant
temperature gauge needle is in the red
range, there is the possibility of
overheating. Park the vehicle in a safe
place immediately and take
appropriate measures.
Refer to Overheating on page 7-15.
NOTE
If the engine or engine coolant
temperature is high or low, the
engine output may be restricted to
protect the engine.
▼Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows approximately
how much fuel is re
maining in the tank
when the ignition is switched ON. We
recommend keeping the tank over 1/4
full.

1. Full
2. 1/4 Full
3. Empty

If the low fuel warning light illuminates
or the fuel level is very low, refuel as
soon as possible.
If inconsistency in engine performance
or stalling occurs due to low fuel level
conditions, refuel the vehicle as soon
as possible and add at least 10 L (2.7
US gal, 2.2 Imp gal) of fuel.
Refer to Low Fuel Warning Indication/
Warning Light on page 7-28.
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.

▼Outside Temperature Display
When the ignition is switched ON, the
outside temperature is displayed.

NOTE
Under the following conditions, the
outside temperature display may
differ from the actual outside
temperature depending on the
surroundings and ve
hicle 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 the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
▼ Distance-to-empty
This 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.
When the remaining
distance-to-empty is 50 km (30 miles)
or farther, the remaining
distance-to-empty indication
decreases in 10 km (10 mile)
increments, and when the remaining
distance-to-empty is 50 km (30 miles)
or shorter, it decreases in 1 km (1 mile)
increments.

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 will 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.
