NOTE: The HL A system will hold the vehicle for a maximum of 2.0 seconds
while the driver is changing from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
HILL LAUNCH ASSIST (HLA)
HL A helps assist you when accelerating the vehicle from a stop while on
a hill or slope.
When the brake pedal is released and the accelerator pedal is pushed,
HL A prevents the vehicle from rolling forward or backward. It operates on
a downward slope when the shift lever is in the reverse (R) position, and on
an upward slope when the shift lever is in a position other than the reverse
(R) position.
Transmission
ACTIVE ADAPTIVE SHIFT (AAS) CONTROL
AAS will automatically adjust how
and when the transmission shifts
gears based on road conditions
and your driving style.
The transmission may stay in a
lower gear longer than usual when
going up or down hills or driving
around corners. This feature gives
you better control and a more
connected driving experience.

• If the vehicle is driven while the warning screen is displayed, a warning sound
will be heard and power steering assist will be limited.
i-ELOOP
i-ELOOP (if equipped)
The Mazda-unique regenerative braking system (i-ELOOP) generates
and stores electrical energy in a capacitor during deceleration. Through
efficient energy regeneration, storage, and usage, fuel economy is
improved. To view i-ELOOP information, select Applications from
the Home screen, then scroll down to Fuel Economy Monitor.
i-ELOOP Pre-Charge Mode
If the capacitor is discharged because of vehicle storage (the vehicle \
is
parked for long periods of time), the i-ELOOP indicator in the instrume\
nt
cluster will flash and a
warning screen appears
on the screen of the
infotainment system.
When this warning screen appears, do not drive the
vehicle. Allow the engine to idle until the warning
screen disappears. This time is needed for normal
generator operation.
