not running.  
the weather gets hot. Lack of refrigerant  
may make the air conditioner less  
efficient.  
The refrigerant specifications are  
indicated on a label attached to the  
inside of the engine compartment. Check  
the label before refilling the refrigerant.  
If the wrong type of refrigerant is used,  
it could result in a serious malfunction  
of the air conditioner.  
yꢀ  
yꢀ  
Clear all obstructions such as leaves,  
snow and ice from the hood and the air  
inlet in the cowl grille to improve the  
system efficiency.  
For details, consult an Authorized  
Mazda Dealer.

Use the climate control system to defog  
the windows and dehumidify the air.  
yꢀ  
The recirculate mode should be used

when driving through tunnels or while in  
a traffic jam, or when you would like to  
shut off outside air for quick cooling of  
the interior.  
yꢀ  
Use the outside air mode for ventilation  
or windshield defrosting.  
yꢀ  
If the vehicle has been parked in direct  
sunlight during hot weather, open the  
windows to let warm air escape, then  
run the climate control system.  
yꢀ  
Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes  
at least once a month to keep internal  
parts lubricated.

WARNING  
Always adjust the audio while the  
vehicle is stopped:  
Do not adjust the audio control  
switches while driving the vehicle.  
Adjusting the audio while driving  
the vehicle is dangerous as it could  
distract your attention from the vehicle  
operation which could lead to a  
serious accident.  
Even if the audio control switches are  
equipped on the steering wheel, learn  
to use the switches without looking  
down at them so that you can keep  
your maximum attention on the road  
while driving the vehicle.

Interior Features  
Audio System  
Do not spill any liquid on the audio  
system.  
FM characteristics  
An FM broadcast range is usually about  
40—50 km (25—30 miles) from the  
source. Because of extra coding needed to  
break the sound into two channels, stereo  
FM has even less range than monaural  
(non-stereo) FM.  
FM Station  
Do not insert any objects, other than CDs,  
into the slot.  
40—50km  
(25—30 miles)  
Signals from an FM transmitter are similar  
to beams of light because they do not  
bend around corners, but they do reflect.  
Unlike AM signals, FM signals cannot  
travel beyond the horizon. Therefore, FM  
stations cannot be received at the great  
distances possible with AM reception.  
Radio Reception  
AM characteristics  
AM signals bend around such things as  
buildings or mountains and bounce off the  
ionosphere.  
Ionosphere  
Therefore, they can reach longer distances  
than FM signals.  
FM wave  
AM wave  
Because of this, two stations may  
sometimes be picked up on the same  
frequency at the same time.  
FM wave  
100—200 km (60—120 miles)  
Atmospheric conditions can also affect  
FM reception. High humidity will cause  
poor reception. However, cloudy days may  
provide better reception than clear days.

Interior Features  
Audio System  
Multipath noise  
Weak signal noise  
Since FM signals can be reflected by  
obstructions, it is possible to receive both  
the direct signal and the reflected signal  
at the same time. This causes a slight  
delay in reception and may be heard as a  
broken sound or a distortion. This problem  
may also be encountered when in close  
proximity to the transmitter.  
In suburban areas, broadcast signals  
become weak because of distance from the  
transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas  
is characterized by sound breakup.  
Reflected wave  
Direct  
Strong signal noise  
This occurs very close to a transmitter  
tower. The broadcast signals are extremely  
strong, so the result is noise and sound  
breakup at the radio receiver.  
Flutter/Skip noise  
Signals from an FM transmitter move in  
straight lines and become weak in valleys  
between tall buildings, mountains, and  
other obstacles. When a vehicle passes  
through such an area, the reception  
conditions may change suddenly, resulting

Operating Tips for CD Player  
Condensation phenomenon  
Immediately after turning on the heater  
when the vehicle is cold, the CD or  
optical components (prism and lens) in  
the CD player may become clouded with  
condensation. At this time, the CD will  
eject immediately when placed in the unit.  
A clouded CD can be corrected simply by  
wiping it with a soft cloth. Clouded optical  
components will clear naturally in about  
an hour. Wait for normal operation to  
return before attempting to use the unit.  
Transparent  
yꢀ  
A new CD may have rough edges on its  
inner and outer perimeters. If a disc with  
rough edges is used, proper setting will  
not be possible and the CD player will  
not play the CD. In addition, the disc  
may not eject resulting in a malfunction.  
Remove the rough edges in advance  
by using a ball-point pen or pencil as  
shown below. To remove the rough  
edges, rub the side of the pen or pencil  
against the inner and outer perimeter of  
the CD.  
Handling the CD player  
The following precautions should be  
observed.  
yꢀ  
The CD revolves at high speed within  
the unit. Defective (cracked or badly  
bent) CDs should never be used.  
yꢀ  
When driving over uneven surfaces, the  
sound may jump.  
yꢀ  
Do not use non-conventional discs such  
as heart-shaped, octagonal discs, etc.  
The disc may not eject resulting in a  
malfunction.

play CDs bearing the identification logo  
as shown below. No other discs can be  
played.  
yꢀ  
Do not insert cleaning discs in the CD  
player.  
yꢀ  
Do not insert any disc with a peel-off  
seal affixed to it.  
yꢀ  
This unit may not be able to play certain  
CD-R/CD-RWs made using a computer  
or music CD recorder due to disc  
characteristics, scratches, smudges, dirt,  
etc., or due to dust or condensation on  
the lens inside the unit.  
yꢀ  
Use discs that have been legitimately  
produced. If illegally-copied discs such  
as pirated discs are used, the system may  
not operate properly.  
yꢀ  
Storing CDs in the vehicle exposed to  
direct sunlight or high temperature may  
damage the CD-R/CD-RWs, and make  
them unplayable.  
yꢀ  
Be sure never to touch the signal surface  
when handling the CDs. Pick up a CD  
by grasping the outer edge or the edge of  
the hole and the outer edge.  
yꢀ  
CD-R/CD-RW exceeding 700 MB  
cannot be played.  
yꢀ  
This unit may not be able to play certain  
discs made using a computer due to the  
application (writing software) setting  
used. (For details, consult the store  
where the application was purchased.)  
yꢀ  
It is possible that certain text data, such  
as titles, recorded on a CD-R/CD-RW  
may not be displayed when musical data  
(CD-DA) is playing.  
yꢀ  
Do not stick paper or tape on the CD.  
Avoid scratching the reverse side (the  
side without a label). The disc may not  
eject resulting in a malfunction.  
yꢀ  
The period from when a CD-RW is  
inserted to when it begins playing is  
longer than a normal CD or CD-R.  
yꢀ  
Completely read the instruction manual  
and cautions for CD-R/CD-RWs.  
yꢀ  
Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can  
decrease the amount of light reflected  
from the signal surface, thus affecting  
sound quality. If the CD should become  
soiled, gently wipe it with a soft cloth  
from the center of the CD to the edge.  
yꢀ  
Do not use discs with cellophane tape  
adhering, partially peeled off labels,  
or adhesive material exuding from the  
edges of the CD label. Also, do not use  
discs with a commercially-available  
CD-R label affixed. The disc may not  
eject resulting in a malfunction.  
yꢀ  
Do not use record sprays, antistatic  
agents, or household spray cleaners.  
Volatile chemicals such as benzine and  
thinner can also damage the surface of  
the CD and must not be used. Anything  
that can damage, warp, or fog plastic  
should never be used to clean CDs.

What is HD Radio™ Technology and  
how does it work?  
HD Radio™ Technology is the digital  
evolution of analog AM/FM radio. Your  
radio product has a special receiver which  
allows it to receive digital broadcasts  
(where available) in addition to the analog  
broadcasts it already receives. Digital  
broadcasts have better sound quality than  
analog broadcasts as digital broadcasts  
provide free, crystal clear audio. For more  
information, and a guide to available radio  
stations and programming, please visit

When a Bluetooth® device (mobile phone) is connected to the vehicle's Bluetooth® unit via  
radio wave transmission, a call can be made or received by pressing the talk button, pick-  
up button, or hang-up button on the audio remote control switch, or by operating the center  
display. For example, even if a device (mobile phone) is in your coat pocket, a call can be  
made without taking the device (mobile phone) out and operating it directly.  
Bluetooth® audio outline  
When a portable audio unit equipped with the Bluetooth® communication function is paired  
to the vehicle, you can listen to music stored on the paired portable audio device from the  
vehicle's speakers. It is not necessary to connect the portable audio device to the vehicle's  
external input terminal. After programming, operate the vehicle audio control panel to play/  
stop the audio.  
NOTE  
yFor your safety, a device can be paired only when the vehicle is parked. If the vehicle  
starts to move, the pairing procedure will end. Park the vehicle in a safe place before  
pairing.  
yThe communication range of a Bluetooth® equipped device is about 10 meters (32 ft) or  
less.  
yBasic audio operation is available using voice commands even if Bluetooth® is not  
connected.

Confirmation Prompts  
Voice Recognition Learning  
Function (Speaker Enrollment)  
(Type A)  
The confirmation prompt confirms the  
command content to the user before  
advancing to the operation requested by  
the user. When this function is turned  
on, the system reads out the voice  
input command previously received  
and confirms whether the command is  
correct before advancing to the command  
execution.  
When the confirmation prompt function is  
turned on:  
(Ex. “Calling John's device. Is this  
correct?”)  
The voice recognition learning function  
enables voice recognition appropriate to  
the characteristics of the user's voice. If the  
recognition of the voice input commands  
to the system is not adequate, this function  
can largely improve the system's voice  
recognition of the user. If your voice can  
be recognized sufficiently without using  
this function, you may not realize the  
added benefit of the function. To register  
your voice, the voice input command  
list must be read out. Read out the list  
when the vehicle is parked. Perform the  
registration in as quiet a place as possible  
5-89. The registration must be performed  
completely. The required time is a few  
minutes. The user needs to be seated in the  
driver's seat with the voice input command  
list for voice recognition learning open to  
the page indicated below.  
When the confirmation prompt function is  
turned off:  
(Ex. “Calling John's device.”)  
NOTE  
If the confirmation prompt function is  
turned off when making an emergency  
call, the system reads out and confirms the  
command before executing it.
