To release AUTOHOLD and start
driving the vehicle
If you do any of the following actions to
resume driving the vehicle, the brakes
release automatically and the
AUTOHOLD active indicator light turns
off.
•(Manual transaxle vehicle)
You start to release the clutch pedal with
the shift lever shifted to a position other
than the neutral position
•(Automatic transaxle vehicle)
•The accelerator pedal is depressed.
•The vehicle tilts rearward or the
selector lever is shifted to the R
position on level ground.
NOTE
•If the electric parking brake (EPB)
switch is pulled while the AUTOHOLD
is operating, the AUTOHOLD is
released and the electric parking brake
(EPB) is applied. In addition, if the
electric parking brake (EPB) is released
under this condition, the AUTOHOLD
operates to hold the brakes.
•Under the following conditions, the
electric parking brake (EPB) is
automatically applied and the
AUTOHOLD is released. The
AUTOHOLD is re-enabled when the
conditions before the AUTOHOLD is
released are restored.
•The driver’s seat belt is unfastened.
•The driver’s door is opened.
•When about ten minutes or longer have
passed since the AUTOHOLD operation
started, the electric parking brake
(EPB) is automatically applied. Because
the AUTOHOLD is restored when
releasing the electric parking brake
(EPB), the hold on the brakes by
AUTOHOLD function resumes.
•(Manual transaxle vehicle)
When starting to drive the vehicle
forward or in reverse on a down slope,
depress the clutch pedal and shift the
shift lever to the appropriate position for
driving in the desired direction, and then
depress the accelerator pedal to release
the AUTOHOLD.

message Depress Brake Pedal to
Release Parking Brake is indicated on
the multi-information display to notify
the driver to depress the brake pedal.
•If any of the following conditions occurs
while the AUTOHOLD function is
operating (AUTOHOLD active indicator
light is turned on), the electric parking
brake (EPB) is applied automatically
and the AUTOHOLD function turns off.
For the electric parking brake (EPB)
operation, refer to the electric parking
brake (EPB) on page 4-81.
•The ignition is switched OFF.
•There is a problem with the
AUTOHOLD function.
Emergency Stop Signal System
Your Mazda is equipped with an
emergency stop signal system that is
designed to determine whether you are
depressing the brake pedal with greater
force than during normal braking such as
in a situation requiring emergency
braking. If the system determines that such
a situation is occurring, it flashes all the
direction indicators rapidly to caution the
driver of the vehicle following behind
your vehicle of the sudden braking
situation.
The system is cancelled when the brake
pedal is released or the system determines
that the brake pedal is no longer heavily
depressed based on t he rate at which the
vehicle speed decreases.
NOTE
•If you bring your vehicle to a complete
stop while all the direction indicators
are flashing rapidly, the rapid flashing
of all the directio n indicators changes
back to the normal flashing pattern.
•The emergency stop signal system does
not operate at vehicle speeds under
about 60 km/h (37 mph).
•If the brake pedal is depressed while
driving on slippery roads, the
emergency stop signal system could
operate causing all the turn and lane
change signals to flash.

▼TCS OFF Indicator Light
This indicator light
stays on for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched ON.
It also illuminates when the TCS OFF
switch is pressed and TCS is switched off.
Refer to TCS OFF Switch on page 4-92.

If the light remains illuminated and the
TCS is not switched off, take your vehicle
to an expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer. The DSC

NOTE
•When TCS is on and you attempt to free
the vehicle when it is stuck, or drive it
out of freshly fallen snow, the TCS (part
of the DSC system) will activate.
Depressing the accelerator will not
increase engine power and freeing the
vehicle may be difficult. When this
happens, turn off the TCS.
•If the TCS is off when the engine is
turned off, it aut omatically activates
when the ignition is switched ON.
•Leaving the TCS on will provide the best
traction.
•If the TCS OFF switch is pressed and
held for 10 seconds or more, the TCS
OFF switch malfunction detection
function operates and the TCS system
activates automatically. The TCS OFF
indicator light turns off while the TCS
system is operative.

Drive Selection*
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 mak e manoeuvres such as lane
changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when driving on slip pery roads such as wet or snow-covered roads.
It may cause tyre slipping.
NOTE
•When the sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds increases and it may
increase fuel consumption. Mazda recommends that you cancel the sport mode on normal
driving.
•Drive mode cannot be switched in the following conditions:
•ABS/TCS/DSC is operating
•The Mazda Radar Cruise Control with St op & Go function (MRCC with Stop & Go
function) System/Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) system/cruise control is
operating.
•Steering wheel is being operated abruptly

NOTE
The timing in which the system switches the headlights changes under the following
conditions. If the system does not switch the headlights appropriately, manually switch
between high and low beams according to the visibility as well as road and traffic
conditions.
•When there are sources of light in the area such as street lamps, illuminated signboards,
and traffic signals.
•When there are reflective objects in the surrounding area such as reflective plates and
signs.
•When visibility is reduced under rain, snow and foggy conditions.
•When driving on roads with sharp turn or hilly terrain.
•When the headlights/rear lamps of vehicles in front of you or in the opposite lane are dim
or not illuminated.
•When there is insufficient darkness such as at dawn or dusk.
•When the luggage compartment is loaded with heavy objects or the rear passenger seats
are occupied.
•When visibility is reduced due to a vehicle in front of you spraying water from its tyres
onto your windscreen.
▼ To Operate the System
The HBC operates to sw
itch 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.
The HBC determines t hat it is dark based
on the brightness of the surrounding area.
At the same time, th e HBC indicator light
(green) in the instrument cluster
illuminates.

The HBC determines t hat it is dark based
on the brightness of the surrounding area.
NOTE
•When the vehicle speed is about 30 km/h
(19 mph) or more, 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 HBC
switches the headlights to low beams.
•The low beams may not switch to high
beams when cornering.
•Operation of the HBC function can be
disabled. Refer to Personalisation
Features on page 9-12.
