lIn addition to the indicator light flashing, a
slight lugging sound will come from the
engine. This indicates that the TCS/DSC is
operating properly.

will be impossible to achieve high rpm
when the TCS is on.

system (DSC) OFF indicator light
illuminates
If the light remains illuminated and the
TCS/DSC is not switched off, take your
vehicle to an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
The DSC may have a malfunction.
qIf the low engine coolant
temperature indicator light (blue)

If the low engine coolant temperature
indicator light remains illuminated after
the engine has been sufficiently warmed
