Mazda 2: Operating Tips
- Operate the air-conditioning system with
the engine running.
- To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the fan control
dial on for a long period of time with the
ignition switched ON when the engine is
not running.
- (With i-stop)
The airfl ow amount may decrease
slightly while the i-stop function is
operating.
- Clear all obstructions such as leaves,
snow and ice from the bonnet and the
air inlet in the cowl grille to improve the
system effi ciency.
- Use the air-conditioning system to defog
the windows and dehumidify the air.
- The recirculate mode should be used
when driving through tunnels or while in
a traffi c jam, or when you would like to
shut off outside air for quick cooling of
the interior
- Use the outside air mode for ventilation
or windscreen defrosting.
- If the vehicle has been parked in direct
sunlight during hot weather, open the
windows to let warm air escape, then
run the air-conditioning system.
(With A/C switch)
- Run the air conditioner about 10 minutes
at least once a month to keep internal
parts lubricated.
- Have the air conditioner checked before
the weather gets hot. Lack of refrigerant
may make the air conditioner less
effi cient.
The refrigerant specifi cations are
indicated on a label attached to the
inside of the engine compartment. Check
the label before refi lling the refrigerant.
If the wrong type of refrigerant is used,
it could result in a serious malfunction
of the air conditioner.
For details, consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer.
