If the High engine coolant temperature warning light illuminates, the vehicle loses power, or you hear a loud knocking or pinging noise, the engine is probably too hot.
WARNING
Switch the ignition to
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 bonnet 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 High engine coolant temperature warning light illuminates:
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 bonnet and start the engine.
If neither coolant nor steam is escaping: Open the bonnet 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 expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
If it is low, look for coolant leaks from the radiator and hoses.
If you fi nd a leak or other damage, or if coolant is still leaking:
Stop the engine and call an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.

SKYACTIV-D 1.5
If you fi nd no problems, the engine is cool, and no leaks are obvious:
Carefully add coolant as required (page 6-29 ).
CAUTION
If the engine continues to overheat or frequently overheats, have the cooling system inspected. The engine could be seriously damaged unless repairs are made. Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
