Tachometer

The tachometer shows engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm).

 

Do not run the engine with the tachometer needle in the RED ZONE.

This may cause severe engine damage.

Odometer, Trip Meter and Trip Meter Selector

The odometer is constantly displayed on the screen when the ignition is switched ON, and the TRIP A or TRIP B screen can be displayed by operating the INFO switch.

 

Odometer

The odometer records the total distance the vehicle has been driven.

Trip meter

The driving distance for a specified interval is indicated. Two types (TRIP A, TRIP B) of interval distance and the average fuel economy for each can be measured.

 

For instance, trip meter A can record the distance from the point of origin, and trip meter B can record the distance from where the fuel tank is filled.

 

When trip meter A is selected, TRIP A will be displayed. When trip meter B is selected, TRIP B will be displayed.

 

The trip meter and average fuel economy can be reset by pressing the INFO switch for 1.5 seconds or more while in each mode.

 

  • Only the trip meters record tenths of kilometers (miles).

  • The trip record will be erased when:

    • The power supply is interrupted (blown fuse or the battery is disconnected).

    • The vehicle is driven over 9999.9 km (mile).

Fuel Gauge

The fuel gauge shows approximately how much fuel is remaining in the tank when the ignition is switched ON. We recommend keeping the tank over 1/4 full.

 

If the low fuel warning light illuminates or the fuel level is very low, refuel as soon as possible.

If inconsistency in engine performance or stalling occurs due to low fuel level conditions, refuel the vehicle as soon as possible and add at least 10 L (2.7 US gal, 2.2 Imp gal) of fuel.

Refer to Taking Action (Search).

 

  • After refueling, it may require some time for the indicator to stabilize. In addition, the indicator may deviate while driving on a slope or curve since the fuel moves in the tank.

  • The direction of the arrow () indicates that the fuel-filler lid is on the left side of the vehicle.

Instrument Cluster (Type B)

Engine Coolant Temperature Gauge

Displays the engine coolant temperature. The blue range of the gauge indicates that the engine coolant temperature is low, and the red range of the gauge indicates that the engine coolant temperature is high and overheating.

 

 

If the high engine coolant temperature warning light (red) flashes, there is a possibility of overheating. Drive slowly to reduce engine load until you can find a safe place to stop the vehicle and wait for the engine to cool down.

Refer to Overheating (Search).

  • (SKYACTIV-G 2.5T, SKYACTIV-D 2.2)

    If the engine coolant temperature is high or the engine is hot, the engine output may be limited.

  • The temperature unit (Centigrade/Fahrenheit) of the engine coolant gauge display changes in conjunction with the temperature unit of the outside temperature display.

    Refer to the Settings section in the Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
