Overheating
If the engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates overheating and the
high engine coolant temperature
warning indication is displayed, the
vehicle loses power or you hear a loud
knocking or pinging noise, the engine
is probably too hot.
WARNING
Pull over to a safe location, then
switch the ignition 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 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 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 engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates overheating and the
high engine coolant temperature
warning indication is displayed:
1. Drive safely to the side of the road
and park off the right-of-way.
2. Put a vehicle with an automatic
transmission in park (P), a manual
transmission in neutral.
3. Apply the parking brake.
4. Turn off the air conditioner.
5. Check whether coolant or steam is
escaping 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 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).
6. Make sure the cooling fan is
operating, then turn off the engine
after the temperature has
decreased.
7. When cool, check the coolant level.
