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.

 

  1. STRIPED ZONE*1

  2. RED ZONE*1

  1. The range varies depending on the type of gauge.

 


When the tachometer needle enters the STRIPED ZONE, this indicates to the driver that the gears should be shifted before entering the RED ZONE.

Odometer, Trip Meter and Trip Meter Selector

You can switch between the odometer and trip meter display using the TRIP switch.

 

  1. TRIP switch

  2. Odometer display

  3. Trip meter A display

  4. Trip meter B display

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 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 can be reset by pressing the TRIP switch for 1.5 seconds or more while the trip meter is displayed.

 


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

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.

 

 


When the engine coolant temperature gauge needle is in the red range, the engine coolant temperature is extremely high. Drive slowly to reduce engine load. If the engine coolant temperature gauge needle is in the red range, there is the possibility of overheating. Park the vehicle in a safe place immediately and take appropriate measures.

Refer to Overheating (Search).

 


  • If the engine or engine coolant temperature is high or low, the engine output may be restricted to protect the engine.

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.

 

  1. Full

  2. 1/4 Full

  3. Empty

 

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 Low Fuel Warning Indication/Warning Light (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.

Dashboard Illumination

(Without auto-light control)

When the lights are turned on with the ignition switched ON, the brightness of the dashboard illumination is dimmed.

(With auto-light control)

When the lights are turned on with the ignition switched ON, the brightness of the dashboard illumination is dimmed. However, when the light sensor detects that the surrounding area is bright such as when the lights are turned on in the daytime, the dashboard illumination does not dim.

 


  • (With auto-light control)

    When the ignition is switched ON in the early evening or at dusk, the dashboard illumination is dimmed for several seconds until the light sensor detects the brightness of the surrounding area, however, the dimming may cancel after the brightness is detected.

  • When the lights are turned on, the lights-on indicator light in the instrument cluster turns on.

    Refer to Headlights (Search).

The brightness of the instrument panel and dashboard illuminations can be adjusted by pressing the dashboard illumination switch while the dashboard illumination is dimmed.

  • The brightness increases by pressing the + switch.

  • The brightness decreases by pressing the - switch. If you press the - switch while the instrument cluster is at maximum dimness, a sound is activated to notify you that the current dimmer setting is at maximum dimness.

 

  1. Bright

  2. Dim

Function for canceling illumination dimmer

The illumination dimmer can be canceled by pressing the + switch while the instrument cluster is at maximum dimness and while the ignition is switched ON. If you press the + switch again while the illumination dimmer is canceled, a sound is activated to notify you that it is canceled. If the instrument cluster's visibility is reduced due to glare from surrounding brightness, cancel the illumination dimmer.

 


  • When the illumination dimmer is canceled, the instrument cluster cannot be dimmed even if the lights are turned on.

  • When the illumination dimmer is canceled, the screen in the center display switches to constant display of the daytime screen.

Outside Temperature Display

When the ignition is switched ON, the outside temperature is displayed.

 

 


  • Under the following conditions, the outside temperature display may differ from the actual outside temperature depending on the surroundings and vehicle conditions:

    • Significantly cold or hot temperatures.

    • Sudden changes in outside temperature.

    • The vehicle is parked.

    • The vehicle is driven at low speeds.

Changing the Temperature Unit of the Outside Temperature Display

The outside temperature unit can be switched between Celsius and Fahrenheit.

Settings can be changed by operating the center display screen.

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

Distance-to-empty

This displays the approximate distance you can travel on the remaining fuel based on the fuel economy.

The distance-to-empty will be calculated and displayed every second.

 

 


  • Even though the distance-to-empty display may indicate a sufficient amount of remaining driving distance before refueling is required, refuel as soon as possible if the fuel level is very low or the low fuel warning light illuminates.

  • The display will not change unless you add more than approximately 9 L (2.3 US gal, 1.9 Imp gal) of fuel.

  • The distance-to-empty is the approximate remaining distance the vehicle can be driven until all the graduation marks in the fuel gauge indicating the remaining fuel supply disappear.

  • If there is no past fuel economy information such as after first purchasing your vehicle or the information is deleted when the battery cables are disconnected, the actual distance-to empty/range may differ from the amount indicated.

Current Fuel Economy

This displays the current fuel economy by calculating the amount of fuel consumption and the distance traveled.

 

M Hybrid

Except M Hybrid

 


  • Indicates the 0 position when the vehicle speed is about 5 km/h (3 mph) or slower.

  • The arrow on the scale indicates the average fuel economy.

Deceleration Regeneration Charge Display (M Hybrid)

This displays the status of the charging produced by deceleration regeneration.

Wrench Indication/Indicator Light

The wrench indication/indicator light is displayed/turns on under the following conditions.

  • When the preset maintenance period has arrived.

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

     


    • When the maintenance period arrives, have your vehicle inspected by an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible. If maintenance is neglected, a decrease in vehicle performance may occur which could cause damage. Have your vehicle inspected before the maintenance period arrives.

    • If the vehicle continues to be driven after the engine oil replacement period has passed, it could cause damage to the engine. Replace the engine oil before the maintenance period arrives.

 


  • The wrench indication/indicator light may display/turn on earlier than the preset period depending on vehicle usage conditions.
