Electric Parking Brake
ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE
The electric parking brake equipment applies the parking brake using an
electric motor. The indicator light on the electric parking brake switch turns
on when the switch is turned on.
Applying the electric parking brake:
The electric parking brake can be applied regardless of the ignition switch
position. Securely depress the brake pedal and pull up the electric parking
brake switch. The electric parking brake is applied and the brake system
warning light and the electric parking brake switch indicator light turn on.
Releasing the electric parking brake:
The electric parking brake can be released while the ignition is switched
ON or while the engine is running. When the electric parking brake is
released, the brake system warning light and the electric parking brake
switch indicator light turn off.
Electric parking brake manual release:
Depress the brake pedal and press the electric parking brake switch.
Electric parking brake automatic release:
The parking brake is released automatically when
the accelerator pedal is depressed and all of the
following conditions met:
• The engine is running.
• The driver’s door is closed.
• The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• A/T
- Selector lever is in the D, M, or R position.
• M/T

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
For your safety, the Mazda6 is equipped with TPMS that detects low
tire pressure in one or more tires. If the tire pressure starts getting
low in one or more tires, the system alerts the driver by turning on a
light in the instrument cluster (pp. 33-34) and sounding an alarm.
What to do? Don’t ignore the TPMS warning light. Stop and check your
tire pressure (when tires are cold) and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Properly inflated tires are safer, last longer, and increase fuel economy.
In the following cases, the TPMS must be “initialized” so the system can
operate normally.
• The tire pressure is adjusted (up or down) in one or more tires.
• A tire rotation is performed.
• Any tire or wheel is replaced.
• The vehicle’s battery is disconnected, replaced or completely dead.
Initialization Process (TPMS Warning Light is Illuminated)
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.
2 Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure to the specified
pressure (See tire label located on the driver’s
side door opening) on all four (4) tires.
3 Switch the ignition ON, but leave the vehicle parked.
4 Push and hold the TPMS “Set Switch”
(left side of dash) until the TPMS warning light
in the instrument cluster flashes twice and

a beep sound is heard once.
Electric Parking BrakeTires
CAUTION: If the TPMS “Set Switch” is pushed without adjusting the tire
pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure. The TPMS
warning light may not turn on, even if the tire pressure is low, or it may turn on
if the tire pressure is normal.
NOTE: Drastic changes in temperature or altitude may cause the TPMS warning
light to turn on.

IMPORTANT: When your
Mazda Connect display setting
is set on “AUTO”, the instrument
cluster and display may become
dimmer when the headlights are
on. If the display and instrument
cluster become too dim or too
bright when the headlights are on,
simply rotate the dimmer knob
located on your instrument cluster
to adjust the brightness.
GLOSSARY OF WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS
Type A cluster is shown. Type B
cluster is similar, but with warning
lights in different locations.
*TPMS NOTE: Low ambient temperature and/or high altitude causes tire pressures to drop
and may turn the TPMS warning light on. If the warning light comes on, check the tire pressure
and fill the tires as soon as possible, preferably before moving the vehicle and warming up
the tires. Initialize system (p. 6). Tire pressure should be checked when the tires are cold.
NOTE: See Owner’s Manual for more details and explanations.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMP LIGHTS
Since this vehicle does not use an
engine coolant temperature gauge, red
and blue engine coolant temperature
lights are used to indicate high
and low coolant temperature.
Red Coolant Temp Light
Flashing : Engine is starting
to run hot. Drive slowly to
reduce engine load.
On: Engine is overheating. Safely pull
over to the side of the road and turn
the engine off. Refer to the Owner’s
Manual for more information.
Blue Coolant Temp Light On: Engine coolant is cold
and no warm air is available
for heater/defroster.
Off: Engine coolant is warm and
warm air is available for heater/
defroster. The light may stay on for a
few minutes after start-up when the
engine is cold, but the vehicle can
be driven with the light on or off.

i-ELOOP
NOTE: • If the vehicle is jump started, leave the jumper cables connected until the
warning message is no longer displayed.
• 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 (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.
