Do not rely solely on the shift-up/
shift-down recommendations by
indications. The actual driving situation
might require shift operations different
from indication. To avoid the risk of
accidents, the road and traffic conditions
have to be judged correctly by the driver
before shifting.

Always set the selector lever to P position
and set the parking brake:
Only setting the selector lever to the P
position without using the parking brake to
hold the vehicle is dangerous. If P fails to
hold, the vehicle could move and cause an
accident.

¾Shifting into P, N or R while the vehicle is
moving can damage your transaxle.
¾Shifting into a driving gear or reverse
when the engine is running faster than
idle can damage the transaxle.

If the engine is running faster than idle, do
not shift from N or P into a driving gear:
It's dangerous to shift from N or P into a
driving gear when the engine is running
faster than idle. If this is done, the vehicle
could move suddenly, causing an accident
or serious injury.
Do not shift into N when driving the
vehicle:
Shifting into N while driving is dangerous.
Engine braking cannot be applied when
decelerating which could lead to an
accident or serious injury.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
Do not shift into N when driving the
vehicle. Doing so can cause transaxle
damage.

¾Do not shade the light sensor by adhering a sticker or a label on the windscreen. Otherwise
the light sensor will not operate correctly.
¾The light sensor also works as a rain sensor for the auto-wiper control. Keep hands and
scrapers clear of the windscreen when the wiper lever is in the AUTO position and the
ignition is switched ON as fingers could be pinched or the wipers and wiper blades
damaged when the wipers activate automatically. If you are going to clean the windscreen,
be sure the wipers are turned off completely Š this is particularly important when clearing
ice and snow Š when it is particularly tempting to leave the engine running.
NOTE
xThe headlights, other exterior lights and instrument panel illumination may not turn off
immediately even if the surrounding area becomes well-lit because the light sensor
determines that it is night time if the surrounding area is continuously dark for several
minutes such as inside long tunnels, traffic jams inside tunnels, or in indoor parking lots.
In this case, the lights turn off if the light switch is turned to the OFF position.
xWhen the headlight switch is in the AUTO position and the ignition is switched to ACC or
the ignition is switched off, the headlights, other exterior lights and instrument panel
illumination will turn off.
xThe instrument panel illumination can be adjusted by rotating the knob in the instrument
cluster. Also, the antidazzle mode can be changed by rotating the knob until a beep sound
is heard. To adjust the brightness of the instrument panel illumination: Refer to
Instrument Panel Illumination on page 4-30.
xThe sensitivity of the AUTO lights may be changed by an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
Refer to Personalisation Features on page 9-15.

¾When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is switched ON,
the wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
¾If the windscreen above the rain sensor
is touched or wiped with a cloth.
¾If the windscreen is struck with a hand
or other object from either outside or
inside the vehicle.
Keep hands and scrapers clear of the
windscreen when the wiper lever is in the
AUTO position and the ignition is
switched ON as fingers could be pinched
or the wipers and wiper blades damaged
when the wipers activate automatically.
If you are going to clean the windscreen,
be sure the wipers are turned
off
completely (when it is most likely that the
engine is left running) this is particularly
important when clearing ice and snow.
NOTE
xSwitching the auto-wiper lever from the
OFF to the AUTO position while driving
activates the windscreen wipers once,
after which they operate according to
the rainfall amount.
xThe auto-wiper control may not operate
when the rain sensor temperature is
about –10 °C (14 °F) or lower, or about
85 °C (185 °F) or higher.
xIf the windscreen is coated with water
repellent, the rain sensor may not be
able to sense the amount of rainfall
correctly and auto-wiper control may
not operate properly.
xIf dirt or foreign matter (Such as ice or
matter containing salt water) adheres to
the windscreen above the rain sensor or
if the windscreen is iced, it could cause
the wipers to move automatically.
However, if the wipers cannot remove
this ice, dirt or foreign matter, the
auto-wiper control will stop operation.
In this case, set the wiper lever to the
low speed position or high speed
position for manual operation, or
remove the ice, dirt or foreign matter by
hand to restore the auto-wiper
operation.
xIf the auto-wiper lever is left in the
AUTO position, the wipers could
operate automatically from the effect of
strong light sources, electromagnetic
waves, or infrared light because the rain
sensor uses an optical sensor. It is
recommended that the auto-wiper lever
be switched to the OFF position other
than when driving the vehicle under
rainy conditions.
xThe auto-wiper control functions can be
turned off.
Refer to Personalisation Features on
page 9-15.
