Cautions on chassis dynamometer use: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Mazda CX-3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- When inspecting and servicing the powertrain on the dynamometer or speedometer tester, pay attention to the following:NOTE:
- If the engine cannot be stopped using the push button start, perform an emergency engine stop operation. (Refer to EMERGENCY ENGINE STOP OPERATION .)
- Place a fan, preferably a vehicle-speed proportional type, in front of the vehicle.
- Make sure the vehicle is in a facility with an exhaust gas ventilation system.
- Keep the rear bumper cool by placing a cooling fan near the exhaust pipe so that the rear bumper does not get deformed by the heat from the exhaust.
- Keep the area around the vehicle uncluttered so that heat does not build up.
- Watch the water temperature gauge and do not overheat the engine.
- Avoid added load to the engine and maintain normal driving conditions as much as possible.
