Mazda CX-5, Manual

Page: 184 / 840

CAUTION
If the engine coolant temperature gauge
needle is in the red range, there is the
possibility of overheating. Drive slowly to
reduce engine load until you can find a safe
place to stop the vehicle and wait for the
engine to cool down.
Refer to Overheating on page 7-36.
NOTE

During normal driving, the engine
coolant temperature stabilizes at 100 °C
(210 °F) or less, and the gauge indicates
a range lower than 100 °C (210 °F).
▼ Fuel Gauge
The fuel gauge shows approximately how
much fuel is remaining in the tank when
the ignition is switched ON. We
recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.
Full
1/4 Full
Empty
If the low fuel warning light illuminates or
the fuel level is very low, refuel as soon as
possible.
Refer to Taking Action on page 7-54.
NOTE

After refuelling, 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.

The direction of the arrow ( ) indicates
that the fuel-filler flap is on the left side
of the vehicle.
(SKYACTIV-D 2.2)
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.
▼ Instrument Panel Illumination
When the lights are turned on with the
ignition switched ON, the brightness of
the instrument panel illumination is
dimmed. However, when the light sensor
detects that the surrounding area is bright
such as when the lights are turned on in
the daytime, the instrument panel
illumination does not dim.
NOTE

When the ignition is switched ON in the
early evening or at dusk, the instrument
panel illumination is dimmed for several
seconds until the light sensor detects the
brightness of the surrounding area,
however, the dimming may cancel after
the brightness is detected.
