Headlights
Turn the headlight switch to turn the headlights, other exterior lights and instrument panel
illumination on or off.
When the lights are turned on, the lights-on indicator light in the instrument cluster turns on.



NOTE
  To prevent discharging the battery, do not leave the lights on while the engine is off
unless safety requires them.
  Headlights do not blind drivers approaching in the opposite direction no matter
what side of the road you must drive your vehicle (left-hand or right-hand traf¿ c).
Therefore, it is not necessary to adjust the optical axis of the headlights when
switching temporarily to driving on the opposite side of the road (left-hand or right-
hand traf¿ c).

Before Using the Audio System
WARNING
Do not adjust the portable audio unit
or a similar product while driving the
vehicle:
Adjusting the portable audio unit
or a similar product while driving
the vehicle is dangerous as it could
distract your attention from the vehicle
operation which could lead to a serious
accident. Always adjust the portable
audio unit or a similar product while
the vehicle is stopped.
CAUTION
Depending on the portable audio device,
noise may occur when the device is
connected to the vehicle accessory
socket. (If noise occurs, do not use the
accessory socket.)
NOTE
  This mode may not be usable
depending on the portable audio
device to be connected.
  Before using the auxiliary jack/USB
port, refer to the instruction manual
for the portable audio device.
  Use a commercially-available,
non-impedance (3.5
) stereo mini
plug for connecting the portable
audio unit to the auxiliary jack.
Before using the auxiliary jack, read
the manufacturer's instructions for
connecting a portable audio unit to
the auxiliary jack.
  To prevent discharging of the battery,
do not use the auxiliary input for
long periods with the engine off or
idling.
  When connecting a device to the
auxiliary jack or USB port, noise
may occur depending on the
connected device. If the device is
connected to the vehicle's accessory
socket, the noise can be reduced by
unplugging it from the accessory
socket.

  To disconnect the battery, remove the
negative lead ¿ rst. Install it last when
connecting the battery.
  Be sure to remove the caps before
recharging the battery.

 If the battery quickly discharges
because, for example, the lights were
left on too long with the engine off,
slow-charge it as required by battery
size and charger capacity.
 


 If the battery gradually discharges
because of high electric load while the
vehicle is being used, recharge it as
required by battery size and charger
capacity.

Battery Replacement
Contact an Authorised Mazda Repairer for
a battery replacement purchase.

If the buttons on the transmitter are
inoperable and the operation indicator
light does not À ash, the battery may be

correctly. Battery leakage could
occur if it is not installed correctly.
  When replacing the battery, be
careful not to touch any of the
internal circuitry and electrical
terminals, bend the electrical
terminals, or get dirt in the
transmitter as the transmitter could
be damaged.
  There is the danger of explosion if
the battery is not correctly replaced.

to the following instructions.
 


 Insulate the plus and minus

If Trouble Arises
Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Signal Warning


Electronic Brake Force
Distribution System
Warning If the electronic brake force distribution control unit determines that some components
are operating incorrectly, the control unit may illuminate the brake system warning
light and the ABS warning light simultaneously. The problem is likely to be the
electronic brake force distribution system. WARNING
Do not drive with both the ABS warning light and brake warning light
illuminated. Have the vehicle towed to an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer to have the brakes inspected as soon as possible:
Driving when the brake system warning light and ABS warning light are
illuminated simultaneously is dangerous.
When both lights are illuminated, the rear wheels could lock more quickly in an
emergency stop than under normal circumstances.


Charging System
Warning Light If the warning light turns on while driving, it indicates a problem with the generator or
the charging system.
Drive to the side of the road and park off the right-of-way. Consult an expert repairer,
we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving when the charging system warning light is illuminated
because the engine could stop unexpectedly.
