NOTE

Changing the coolant should be done by
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Inspect the antifreeze protection and
coolant level in the coolant reservoir at
least once a year―at the beginning of the
winter season―and before traveling where
temperatures may drop below freezing.
 
Inspect the condition and connections of
all cooling system and heater hoses.
Replace any that are swollen or
deteriorated.
 
The coolant should be at full in the
radiator and between the FULL and LOW
marks on the coolant reservoir when the
engine is cool.
 

If it is at or near LOW, add enough coolant
to the coolant reservoir to provide freezing
and corrosion protection and to bring the
level to FULL.
Securely tighten the coolant reservoir tank
cap after adding coolant.

CAUTION

¾

Radiator coolant will damage paint.

Rinse it o

ff

 quickly if spilled.

¾

If the “FL22” mark is shown on or near

the cooling system cap, use of FL-22 is

recommended when replacing engine

coolant. Using engine coolant other than

FL-22 may cause serious damage to the

engine and cooling system.

If the coolant reservoir is empty or new
coolant is required frequently, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
