qNot Using for a Long Period  
Operating Tips  
Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes  
at least once a month to keep internal  
parts lubricated.  
qOperating the Climate Control  
System  
Operate the climate control system with  
the engine running.  
qCheck the Refrigerant before the  
Weather Gets Hot  
NOTE  
Have the air conditioner checked before  
the weather gets hot. Lack of refrigerant  
may make the air conditioner less  
efficient. Consult an Authorized Mazda  
Dealer for refrigerant inspection.  
To prevent the battery from being discharged,  
do not leave the fan control dial on for a long  
period of time with the ignition switch in the  
ON position when the engine is not running.  
qClearing the Air Inlet  
The air conditioner is filled with  
HFC134a (R134a), a refrigerant that will  
not damage the ozone layer.  
If the air conditioner is low on refrigerant  
or has a malfunction, consult an  
Authorized Mazda Dealer.  
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.  
qFoggy Windows  
The windows may fog up easily in humid  
weather. Use the climate control system to  
defog the windows.  
To help defog the windows, operate the  
air conditioner to dehumidify the air.  
NOTE  
The air conditioner may be used along with the  
heater to dehumidify the air.  
qParking in Direct Sunlight  
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.

qRadio Reception  
Operating Tips for Audio  
System  
AM characteristics  
AM signals bend around such things as  
buildings or mountains and bounce off the  
ionosphere. Therefore, they can reach  
longer distances than FM signals. Because  
of this, two stations may sometimes be  
picked up on the same frequency at the  
same time.  
WARNING  
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. Always adjust the  
audio while the vehicle is stopped.  
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.  
Ionosphere  
Station 1  
Station 2  
FM characteristics  
An FM broadcast range is usually about  
4050 km (2530 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.  
CAUTION  
For the purposes of safe driving,  
adjust the audio volume to a level  
that allows you to hear sounds  
outside of the vehicle including car  
horns and particularly emergency  
vehicle sirens.  
FM Station  
NOTE  
l
To prevent the battery from being  
40—50km  
(25—30 miles)  
discharged, do not leave the audio system  
on for a long period of time when the  
engine is not running.  
l
If a cellular phone or CB radio is used in  
or near the vehicle, it could cause noise to  
occur from the audio system, however, this  
does not indicate that the system has been  
damaged.  
6-15  
Interior Comfort  
Audio System  
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.  
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  
in annoying noise.

FM wave  
AM wave  
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.  
Weak signal noise  
In suburban areas, broadcast signals  
become weak because of distance from  
the transmitter. Reception in such fringe  
areas is characterized by sound breakup.  
Multipath 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.

Strong signal noise  
qOperating Tips for CD Player/In-  
Dash CD Changer  
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.  
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/In-dash CD changer 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.  
Station drift noise  
When a vehicle reaches the area of two  
strong stations broadcasting at similar  
frequencies, the original station may be  
temporarily lost and the second station  
picked up. At this time there will be some  
noise from this disturbance.  
Handling the CD player/In-dash CD  
changer  
The following precautions should be  
observed.  
l
Do not spill any liquid on the audio  
system.

The CD revolves at high speed within  
the unit. Defective (cracked or badly  
bent) CDs should never be used.  
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/In-dash CD changer 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.  
l
Do not use non-conventional discs  
such as heart-shaped, octagonal discs,  
etc. The disc may not eject resulting in  
a malfunction.

l
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.  
Dust, finger smudges, and dirt can  
decrease the amount of light reflected  
from the signal surface, thus affecting

Specialized glossary  
MP3  
Bit rate  
Refers to the volume of data per second,  
expressed in bps (bits per second).  
Generally, the larger the number of the  
transfer bit rate when compressing an  
MP3 file, the more information regarding  
musical reproduction it carries, and  
therefore the better the sound quality.  
Abbreviation for MPEG Audio Layer 3.  
A technical standard for audio  
compression as decided by an ISO  
(International Organization for  
Standardization) MPEG working group.  
Use of MP3 allows for audio data to be  
compressed to approximately a tenth of  
the source data size.  
Packet writing  
A general term for the method, similar to  
that used for floppy discs or hard drives,  
of recording the required file in a single  
increment on a CD-R and similar.  
ISO 9660  
An international standard for logical  
formatting of CD-ROM files and folders.  
It is divided into three separate levels  
based on differences in file naming  
procedures, data configuration and other  
characteristics.  
ID3 Tag  
ID3 tag is a method for storing  
information related to the music in an  
MP3 file. Information such as track, artist  
and album name can be stored. This  
content can be freely edited using ID3  
editing function software.  
Multi-session  
A session is the complete amount of data  
recorded from the beginning to the end of  
a single period of CD-ROM, CD-R/CD-  
RW data recording. Multi-session refers to  
the existence of data from two or more  
sessions on a single disc.  
VBR  
Abbreviation for Variable Bit Rate. While  
CBR (Constant Bit Rate) is generally  
used, VBR varies the bit rate for audio  
compression according to compression  
conditions and this allows for  
Sampling  
Refers to the process of encoding analog  
audio data at regular intervals and  
converting it to digital data. The sampling  
rate refers to the number of times a  
sample is taken in one second and is  
expressed in Hz units. Increasing the  
sampling rate improves the sound quality  
but also increases the data size.  
compression with preference given to  
sound quality.
