ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM
(IF EQUIPPED)
ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS)
AFS automatically turns the headlight beam to the right or left in conjunction with the
direction of the steering wheel.
The AFS improves the direction of headlight illumination while cornering and only works when the vehicle is moving.
NOTE: With AFS, it is normal to see the headlights move and hear the sound of the
headlight leveling motors at the front of the vehicle when the ignition is ON.

The system will need to be reset if the vehicle battery has been disconnected or the system fuse has been replaced. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for easy-to-follow resetting instructions.
VEHICLE SETTINGS
AFS can be turned off using Vehicle Settings in MAZDA CONNECT (p. 15).

MANUAL SHIFT MODE
Manual Shift Mode gives you the feel of driving a manual transmission by allowing you
to manually shift to control engine rpm and torque when more control is desired.
To Use Manual Shift Mode:
Shift the lever from D to M.
To Shift Up To A Higher Gear:
Tap the shift lever back (+) once.
To Shift Down To A Lower Gear:
Tap the shift lever forward (-) once.
DRIVE SELECTION
SPORT mode will choose a lower gear for increased
acceleration response. It will also hold a lower gear/
delay upshifting when it detects you are braking or
cornering because it anticipates that you will want to
accelerate out of the turn more quickly.
Push the SPORT button to switch to SPORT mode
and the SPORT mode indicator light in the instrument
cluster turns on. Push again to turn off.
NOTE: If the SET button of the cruise control is pushed while in SPORT mode, SPORT
mode is switched off. SPORT mode cannot be turned on or off when cornering.
• When the ignition is switched OFF, SPORT mode is also switched off.
