CAUTION
ØDo not drive with your foot held
on the clutch pedal or brake pedal,
or hold the clutch pedal depressed
halfway unnecessarily. Doing so
could result in the following:
ØThe clutch and brake parts will
wear out more quickly.
ØThe brakes can overheat and
adversely affect brake
performance.
ØAlways depress the brake pedal
with the right foot. Applying the
brakes with the unaccustomed left
foot could slow your reaction time
to an emergency situation
resulting in insufficient braking
operation.
ØWear shoes appropriate for driving
in order to avoid your shoe
contacting the brake pedal when
depressing the accelerator pedal.
qElectric 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.

If the vehicle is driven with the
parking brake applied, the brake
parts may generate heat and the
brake system may not operate,
leading to an accident.
Before driving, release the electric
parking brake and verify that the
brake system warning light is turned
off.

NOTE
If something such as the driver's foot contacts
the accelerator pedal with the engine running
and the electric parking brake applied, the
parking brake may be released automatically.
If you do not intend to drive immediately, shift
the change lever (manual transmission) to the
neutral position, or shift the selector lever

cluster, check the vehicle condition or
have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer according to
the indication.
qWarning Light
A system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page
4-20.
qBrake Pad Wear Indicator
When the disc brake pads become worn,
the built-in wear indicators contact the
disc plates. This causes a screeching noise
to warn that the pads should be replaced.
When you hear this noise, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
WARNING
Do not drive with worn disc pads:
Driving with worn disc pads is
dangerous. The brakes could fail and

WARNING
Do not rely completely on Hill Launch
Assist (HLA):
Hill Launch Assist (HLA) is an
auxiliary device for accelerating from
a stop on a slope. The system only
operates for about two seconds and
therefore, relying only on the system,
when accelerating from a stop is
dangerous because the vehicle may
move (roll) unexpectedly and cause
an accident.
The vehicle could roll depending on
the vehicle's load or if it is towing
something. In addition, for vehicles
with a manual transaxle, the vehicle
could still roll depending on how the
clutch pedal or the accelerator pedal
is operated.
Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before starting to drive the
vehicle.NOTE
lHill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate
on a gentle slope. In addition, the gradient
of the slope on which the system will
operate changes depending on the vehicle's
load.
lHill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate
if the parking brake is applied, the vehicle
has not stopped completely, or the clutch
pedal is released.
lWhile Hill Launch Assist (HLA) is
operating, the brake pedal may feel stiff
and vibrate, however, this does not indicate
a malfunction.
lHill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate
while the TCS/DSC indicator light is
illuminated.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page
4-20.
lHill Launch Assist (HLA) does not turn off
even if the TCS OFF switch is pressed to
turn off the TCS.

qTo Temporarily Cancel
To temporarily cancel the system, use one
of these methods:
lSlightly depress the brake pedal.l(Manual transaxle)
Depress the clutch pedal.
lPress the CANCEL switch.
If the RESUME switch is pressed when
the vehicle speed is 25 km/h (16 mph) or
higher, the system reverts to the
previously set speed.
NOTE
lIf any of the following conditions occur, the
cruise control system is temporarily
canceled.
lThe parking brake is applied.l(Automatic transaxle)
The selector lever is in the P or N
position.
l(Manual transaxle)
The shift lever is in the neutral position.
lWhen the cruise control system is
temporarily canceled by even one of the
applicable cancel conditions, the speed
cannot be re-set.
l(Automatic transaxle)
The cruise control cannot be cancelled
while driving in manual mode (selector
lever shifted from D to M position).
Therefore, engine braking will not be
applied even if the transaxle is shifted down
to a lower gear. If deceleration is required,
lower the set speed or depress the brake
pedal.
qTo Deactivate
To deactivate the system, press the OFF
switch.
