Overheating

If the temperature gauge indicates

overheating, the vehicle loses power, or

you hear a loud knocking or pinging

noise, the engine is probably too hot.

WARNING

Turn off the ignition switch and

make sure the fan is not running before

attempting to wor k 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 caps 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:

1. Drive safely to the side of the road and

park off the right-of-way.

2. Put a vehicle with an autom atic

transaxle in park (P), a manual

transaxle in neutral.

3. Apply the parki ng brake.

4. Turn off the air conditioner.

5. Check whether coolant or steam is

escaping from under the hood or 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 reservoir

level.

If it's low, look for coolant leaks from

the radiator and hoses.
