High Speed Driving

WARNING

High Speed Driving:
Mazda recommends obeying posted
speed limits. Driving too fast for
conditions is dangerous and creates
the possibility of loss of vehicle con-
trol and resulting personal injury.
Driving at very high speeds for
extended periods of time, under
some circumstances, may result in
damage to vehicle components.

Your vehicle is equipped with an engine
speed (RPM) limiting device. If you
are experiencing an “Engine Cut-Out”
condition at high speed, this may be a

result of this limiting device. This is
a normal condition that can be avoided
by reducing vehicle/engine speed.

Winter Driving

S

Carry emergency gear, including tire
chains, a window scraper, flares, a
small shovel, jumper cables, and a
small bag of sand or salt.

S

Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in
the radiator. (page 8-23)

S

Inspect the battery and its cables. Cold
reduces battery capacity. (page 8-40)

S

Use only cold-weather engine oil.
(page 8-16)

S

Inspect the ignition system for dam-
age and loose connections.

S

Use washer fluid made with anti-
freeze—but don’t use engine coolant
antifreeze for washer fluid. (page
8-36)

S

Don’t use the parking brake if it might
freeze. Instead, shift to P (Park) with
an automatic transmission and to 1
(First) or R (Reverse) with a manual
transmission. Block the rear wheels.

t

Snow tires

Don’t go faster than 75 mph (120 km/h)
or the posted speed limit. Inflate snow
tires 4 psi (27.5 kPa) more than rec-
ommended on the tire pressure label
(driver’s door frame), but never more
than the maximum cold-tire pressure
shown on the tires.
