Drive Selection (Automatic Transaxle)
Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode. When the sport mode is
selected, vehicle's response against accelerator operation is enhanced. This provides
additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make maneuvers such as lane
changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when driving on slippery roads such as wet or snow-
covered roads. It may cause tire slipping.
NOTE
lWhen the sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds increases and it may increase
fuel consumption. Mazda recommends to cancel the sport mode on normal driving.
lDrive mode cannot be switched in the following conditions:lABS/TCS/DSC is operatinglThe Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system/cruise control is operating.lSteering wheel is being operated abruptly
qDrive Selection Switch
Press the drive selection switch to the
side (forward) to select the sport
mode.
Pull the drive selection switch to the
side (backward) to cancel the sport mode.
NOTElWhen the ignition is switched off, the sport
mode is canceled.
lDepending on the driving conditions when
sport mode is selected, the vehicle may
perform shift-down or slightly accelerate.
qSelect Mode Indication
When the sport mode is selected, the
select mode indication turns on in the
instrument cluster.
NOTE
If the mode cannot be switched to drive mode,
the select mode indication flashes to notify the
driver.

Power Steering
lPower steering is only operable when
the engine is running. If the engine is
off or if the power steering system is
inoperable, you can still steer, but it
requires more physical effort.
If the steering feels stiffer than usual
during normal driving or the steering
vibrates, consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.
lFor vehicles with the type A instrument
cluster, check the vehicle condition or
have the vehicle inspected at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer according to
the indication.
lA system malfunction or operation
conditions are indicated by a warning.
In addition, the buzzer may also
activate depending on the system
abnormality or operation condition.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on
page 4-20.
Refer to Warning Sound is Activated
on page 7-34.
CAUTION
Never hold the steering wheel to the
extreme left or right for more than 5
seconds with the engine running.
This could damage the power
steering system.

qTo Operate the System
The High Beam Control System (HBC)
operates to switch the headlights
automatically between high and low
beams after the ignition is switched ON
and the headlight switch is in the AUTO
and high beam position. At the same time,
the High Beam Control System (HBC)
indicator light (green) in the instrument
cluster illuminates.
The High Beam Control System (HBC)
determines that it is dark based on the
brightness of the surrounding area.
NOTE
lWhen the vehicle speed is 30 km/h (18 mph)
or higher, the headlights automatically
switch to high beams when there are no
vehicles ahead or approaching in the
opposite direction.
When the vehicle speed is less than about
20 km/h (12 mph), the High Beam Control
System (HBC) switches the headlights to
low beams.
lThe low beams may not switch to high
beams when cornering.
lOperation of the High Beam Control
System (HBC) function can be disabled
Refer to Personalization Features on page
9-10.
qManual Switching
Switching to low beams
Shift the lever to the low beam position.
The High Beam Control System (HBC)
indicator light (Green) turns off.
Switching to high beams
Turn the headlight switch to the
position.
The High Beam Control System (HBC)
indicator light (Green) turns off and the
is illuminated.

Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS)í
The LDWS system notifies the driver that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane.
The system detects the white or yellow lines on the traffic lane using the forward sensing
camera and if it determines that the vehicle may be deviating from its lane, it notifies the
driver using the multi-information display (vehicles with type A instrument cluster), and by
flashing the LDWS warning light (vehicles with type B instrument cluster) and activating
the LDWS warning beep.
Use the LDWS when you drive the vehicle on roads with white or yellow lines.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) on page 4-134.

lThe distance and warning sensitivity
(likelihood of a warning) which the system
uses to determine the possibility of a lane
departure can be changed.

NOTElThe system is only designed to assist you in checking for vehicles at your rear when making a lane
change. Due to certain limitations with the operation of this system, the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) warning light may not flash or it might be delayed even though a vehicle is in an adjacent
driving lane. Always make it your responsibility as a driver to check the rear.
lThe ignition is switched ON.lThe Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) switch is pressed and the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF
indication/indicator light in the instrument cluster is turned off.
lThe vehicle speed is about 10 km/h (6.3 mph) or faster.lThe Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system will not operate under the following circumstances.lThe vehicle speed falls below about 10 km/h (6.3 mph) even though the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) OFF indicator light is turned off.
lThe shift lever (manual transaxle)/selector lever (automatic transaxle) is shifted to reverse (R)
and the vehicle is reversing.
lIn the following cases, the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF indicator light turns on and
operation of the system is stopped. If the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF indicator light
remains illuminated, have the vehicle inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
lSome problem with the system including the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warning lights is
detected.
lA large deviation in the installation position of a radar sensor (rear) on the vehicle has
occurred.
lThere is a large accumulation of snow or ice on the rear bumper near a radar sensor (rear).
Remove any snow, ice or mud on the rear bumper.
lDriving on snow-covered roads for long periods.lThe temperature near the radar sensors (rear) becomes extremely hot due to driving for long
periods on slopes during the summer.
lThe battery voltage has decreased.lUnder the following conditions, the radar sensors (rear) cannot detect target objects or it may be
difficult to detect them.
lA vehicle is in the detection area at the rear in an adjacent driving lane but it does not
approach. The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system determines the condition based on radar
detection data.
lA vehicle is traveling alongside your vehicle at nearly the same speed for an extended period of
time.
lVehicles approaching in the opposite direction.lA vehicle in an adjacent driving lane is attempting to pass your vehicle.lA vehicle is in an adjacent lane on a road with extremely wide driving lanes. The detection
area of the radar sensors (rear) is set at the road width of expressways.
