TROUBLESHOOTING THE CD CHANGER (IF EQUIPPED)
If sound skips:
²You may be traveling on a rough road, playing badly scratched discs or
the disc may be dirty. Skipping will not scratch the discs or damage
the player.
If your changer does not work, it may be that:
²A disc is already loaded where you want to insert a disc.
²The disc is inserted with the label surface downward.
²The disc is dusty or defective.
²The player's internal temperature is above 60ÉC (140ÉF). Allow the
player to cool down before operating.
²A disc with format and dimensions not within industry standards is
inserted.
CD units are designed to play commercially pressed 12 cm (4.75
in) audio compact discs only. Due to technical incompatibility,
certain recordable and re-recordable compact discs may not
function correctly when used in Mazda CD players. Irregular
shaped CDs, CDs with a scratch protection film attached, and CDs
with homemade paper (adhesive) labels should not be inserted
into the CD player. The label may peel and cause the CD to
become jammed. It is recommended that homemade CDs be
identified with permanent felt tip marker rather than adhesive
labels. Ball point pens may damage CDs. Please contact your
dealer for further information.

CD TIPS- CONDENSATION PHENOMENON
Immediately after turning on the heater when the vehicle is cold, the CD
or optical components (prism and lens) in the CD player/changer may
become clouded with condensation. When this happens, the CD will eject
immediately when placed in the unit. A clouded CD can be corrected
simply by wiping it with a soft cloth. Clouded optical components will
clear naturally in about an hour. Wait for normal operation to return
before attempting to use the unit.
HANDLING THE IN-DASH CD PLAYER
²Do not spill any liquid on the audio system.
²Do not insert any objects, other than CDs, into the slot.
²The CD revolves at a high speed within the unit. Defective (cracked or
badly bent) CDs should never be used.
²Do not use non-conventional discs such as heart-shaped, octagonal
discs, etc. The CD player could be damaged.
²A new CD may have rough edges on its inner and outer perimeters. If
a disc with rough edges is used, proper setting will not be possible
and the CD player will not play the CD. Remove the rough edges in
advance by using a ball-point pen or pencil as shown above. To
remove the rough edges, rub the side of the pen or pencil against the
inner and outer perimeter of the CD.
²When driving over rough or uneven surfaces, the audio sound may
jump.
²The CD player has been designed to play CDs bearing the
identification logo as shown. No other discs can be played.
²Do not stick paper or tape on the CD. Avoid scratching the reverse
side of the CD (the side without a label).
²Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can decrease the amount of light
reflected from the signal surface, thereby effecting sound quality.
Gently wipe a soiled CD with a soft cloth from the center to the edge.
²Do not use record sprays, antistatic agents, or household spray
cleaners. Volatile chemicals such as benzine and thinner can also
damage the surface of the CD and must not be used. Do not use
anything that can damage, warp or fog CDs.
Entertainment Systems

²Keep CDs in their cases and avoid direct sunlight to avoid warping.
²The CD player ejects the CD is inserted upside down. Also dirty
and/or defective CDs may be ejected.
²Do not insert cleaning discs into the CD player.

CD AND CD CHANGER CARE
²Handle discs by their edges only. Never touch the playing surface.
²Do not expose discs to direct sunlight or heat sources for extended
periods of time.
RADIO FREQUENCY INFORMATION
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Radio
and Telecommunications Commission(CRTC) establish the frequencies
AM and FM stations may use for their broadcasts. Allowable frequencies
are:
AM 530, 540±1600, 1610 kHz
FM 87.7, 87.9±107.7, 107.9 MHz
Not all frequencies are used in a given area.

Radio reception factors
Three factors can affect radio reception:
²Distance/strength.The further an FM signal travels, the weaker it is.
The listenable range of the average FM station is approximately 40 km
(24 miles). This range can be affected by ªsignal modulation.º Signal
modulation is a process radio stations use to increase their
strength/volume relative to other stations.
²Terrain.Hills, mountains and tall buildings between your vehicle's
antenna and the radio station signal can cause FM reception problems.
Static can be caused on AM stations by power lines, electric fences,
traffic lights and thunderstorms. Moving away from an interfering
structure (out of its ªshadowº) returns your reception to normal.
²Station overload.Weak signals are sometimes captured by stronger
signals when you pass a broadcast tower. A stronger signal may
temporarily overtake a weaker signal and play while the weak station
frequency is displayed.
The audio system automatically switches to single channel reception if it
will improve the reception of a station normally received in stereo.
AUDIO SYSTEM WARRANTIES AND SERVICE
Refer to the ªWarranty Guideº for audio system warranty information.
If service is necessary, see your dealer.

MANUAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
Fan speed control
Controls the volume of air circulated
in the vehicle.
Temperature control knob
Controls the temperature of the
airflow inside the vehicle.
Mode selector control
Controls the direction of the airflow
to the inside of the vehicle.
The air conditioning compressor will operate in all modes
except
,, and. However, the air conditioning will only
function if the outside temperature is about 6ÉC (43ÉF) or higher.
Since the air conditioner removes considerable moisture from the air
during operation, it is normal if clear water drips on the ground under
the air conditioner drain while the system is working and even after you
have stopped the vehicle.
Under normal conditions, your vehicle's climate control system should be
left in any position other than MAX A/C or OFF when the vehicle is
parked. This allows the vehicle to ªbreatheº through the outside air inlet
duct.
