  1. Press the AUTO switch. Selection of the airflow mode, air intake selector and amount of airflow will be automatically controlled.

  2. Operate the temperature setting switch/ (red) or (blue) to set the desired temperature.

     


    • The recommended set temperature is 25 °C (77 °F).

    • Setting the temperature to maximum hot or cold will not provide the desired temperature at a faster rate.

    • The power consumption of the air conditioner changes depending on the set temperature and the ambient temperature. If the set temperature is too low or high, the remaining distance to full discharge shortens.

Convenient Ways to Use the Climate Control System

Cautions Concerning Cabin Preconditioning

Cabin preconditioning is a collective term regarding use of the Climate Control Timer and the remote climate control.

You can cool or warm the cabin, or defog the window glass before getting in the vehicle by setting your departure time in advance (Climate Control Timer) or by a remote operation (remote climate control) using your Smartphone.

 


Do not operate the cabin preconditioning with people or pets in the vehicle:

The cabin preconditioning may stop automatically due to the vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment. If the climate control system stops and the temperature inside the vehicle increases or decreases, it could cause a serious medical condition such as heat exhaustion and dehydration or even death.

 


  • If any of the following conditions are met, the cabin preconditioning will not operate. In addition, if the cabin preconditioning is operating, it will stop. However, if the liftgate is opened while the cabin preconditioning is operating, the cabin preconditioning will not stop.

    • The high voltage battery or the lead-acid battery charge is low

    • The doors/liftgate are open

    • The power switch is switched to a position other than OFF

    • There is a problem with the vehicle

  • If the operation conditions are not met 30 minutes before the departure time set by the climate control timer, the climate control timer will not operate.

  • If any of the following conditions is met, the climate control system will not operate effectively and the cabin temperature may not reach the set temperature:

    • Your power consumption is high

    • Extremely high or low temperatures

  • The climate control system stops at the departure time. The cabin temperature may not reach the set temperature if you get in the vehicle earlier or later than the set departure time.

  • If you operate the cabin preconditioning while charging the vehicle, it could take more time to charge the high voltage battery.

  • During the cabin preconditioning operation, the cooling fan, the compressor, and the cabin fans operate, but this does not indicate a problem.

  • The climate control system functions you can use differ depending on the power switch position.

    1. The cooling/heating function can be used only while charging.

 


  • The recommended set temperature is 25 °C (77 °F). If you set an extremely high or low temperature, power consumption will increase and the charging time will take longer.

  • If you operate the cabin preconditioning while the charging connector is connected, you can reduce the electric power consumption of the high voltage battery. Cabin preconditioning can be operated even without connecting the charging connector, however, the electrical power of the high voltage battery will decrease.

  • If quick charge is started during cabin preconditioning, the cabin preconditioning is stopped.

  • While the cabin preconditioning is operating, the indicator light for the climate control power switch turns on.

  • The cabin preconditioning operates for 30 minutes. If you set the departure time using the Climate Control Timer, set it 30 minutes or later from the current time and if you want to make several settings, space them out at intervals of 30 minutes or longer.

  • Enabling the defroster setting will aid you in defrosting and removing ice or snow from the window glass. The defroster performance changes according to the set temperature.

  • The Climate Control Timer does not work immediately after the lead-acid battery is removed or installed, or when no GPS signal has been received. When GPS signals are received, the Climate Control Timer becomes operational.

Turning On the Climate Control System Using the Timer (Climate Control Timer)

By setting the departure time using Mazda Connect, the climate control system operates and adjusts the cabin temperature by the departure time.

The departure time, day, set temperature, and defroster operation/non-operation can be personalized, and 7 types of patterns can be programmed in advance. You can check the cabin temperature and the setting status using your Smartphone while the Climate Control Timer is operating.

To operate the Climate Control Timer, switch the power switch OFF.

 


  • The Climate Control Timer does not operate while the remote climate control is operating.

  • The Climate Control Timer can be stopped by a Smartphone remote operation.

  • When programming days for the Climate Control Timer, you do not have to set it every time because the programming continues into the following weeks.
