CAUTION

Ø Radiator coolant will damage

paint.
Rinse it off quickly if spilled.

Ø Use only soft (demineralized)

water in the coolant mixture.
Water that contains minerals will
cut down on the coolant's
effectiveness.

Ø Don't add only water. Always add

a proper coolant mixture.

Ø The engine has aluminum parts

and must be protected by an
ethylene-glycol-based coolant to
prevent corrosion and freezing.

Ø DO NOT USE coolants Containing

Alcohol, methanol, Borate or
Silicate.
These coolants could damage the
cooling system.

Ø DO NOT MIX alcohol or methanol

with the coolant. This could
damage the cooling system.

Ø Don't use a solution that contains

more than 60% antifreeze.
This would reduce effectiveness.

NOTE

If the

“FL22” mark is shown on or near the

cooling system cap, it is recommended to use
Mazda Genuine FL22 engine coolant (page
8-3).

If the coolant reservoir is empty or new
coolant is required frequently, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
