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 4-84 .

If the light remains illuminated and the
TCS is not switched off, take your vehicle
to an Authorized Mazda Dealer. The DSC
may have a malfunction.
TCS OFF Switch
Press the TCS OFF switch to turn off the
TCS. The TCS OFF indicator light in the
instrument cluster will illuminate.


Press the switch again to turn the TCS
back on. The TCS OFF indicator light will
turn off.
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 dif fi cult. When this
happens, turn off the TCS.
   If the TCS is off when the engine is
turned off, it automatically 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
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 enhance\
d. This provides
additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make maneuve\
rs 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
  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 (MRCC) system/cruise control is operating.  Steering wheel is being operated abruptly

Drive Selection Switch
Press the drive selection switch forward
(“
”) to select the sport mode.
Pull the drive selection switch back
(“
”) to cancel the sport mode.



NOTE
   When the ignition is switched off, the
sport mode is canceled.
  Depending on the driving conditions
when sport mode is selected, the vehicle
may perform shift-down or slightly
accelerate.

Select Mode Indication
When the sport mode is selected, the select
mode indication turns on in the instrument
cluster.


NOTE
If the drive selection cannot be switched
to sport mode, the select mode indication
fl ashes to notify the driver.

To 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.
The High Beam Control System (HBC)
determines that it is dark based on the
brightness of the surrounding area. At the
same time, the High Beam Control System
(HBC) indicator light (green) in the
instrument cluster illuminates.


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 High Beam
Control System (HBC) switches the
headlights to low beams.
  The low beams may not switch to high
beams when cornering.
  Operation of the High Beam Control
System (HBC) function can be disabled.
Refer to Personalization Features on
page 9-11 .

Manual 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.

NOTE
  The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) will operate when all of the following\
conditions are
met:
  The ignition is switched ON.  The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) OFF indicator light in the instrument \
cluster is
turned off.
  The vehicle speed is about 10 km/h (6.3 mph) or faster.   The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) will not operate under the following c\
ircumstances.   The vehicle speed falls below about 10 km/h (6.3 mph) even though the \
Blind Spot
Monitoring (BSM) OFF indicator light is turned off.
  The selector lever is shifted to reverse (R) and the vehicle is reversing.  The turning radius is small (making a sharp turn, turning at intersecti\
ons).   In 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.
  Some problem with the system including the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) warnin\
g
indicator lights is detected.
  A large deviation in the installation position of a radar sensor (rear) on the vehicle has
occurred.
  There 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.
  Driving on snow-covered roads for long periods.  The temperature near the radar sensors (rear) becomes extremely hot due to driving
for long periods on slopes during the summer.
  The battery voltage has decreased.   Under the following conditions, the radar sensors (rear) cannot detect target objects or it
may be dif fi cult to detect them.
   A vehicle is in the detection area at the rear in an adjacent driving lane but it does not
approach. The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) determines the condition based o\
n radar
detection data.
  A vehicle is traveling alongside your vehicle at nearly the same speed fo\
r an extended
period of time.
  Vehicles approaching in the opposite direction.  A vehicle in an adjacent driving lane is attempting to pass your vehicle.\
  A 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.

maintained. For example, if the ignition
is switched OFF while the Blind Spot
Monitoring (BSM) and Rear Cross Traffi c
Alert (RCTA) systems are operational, the
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) and Rear
Cross Traffi c Alert (RCTA) systems remain
operational the next time the ignition is
switched ON.
