accelerator pedal will not increase
motor power and freeing the vehicle
might be di fficult. When this
happens, turn o ff the TCS.
If the EV system is turned o ff with the
TCS turned off, the TCS becomes
operational when the EV system is
started the next time.
Leaving the TCS on will provide the

Dynamic Stability Control(DSC)
▼Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
automatically controls braking and
motor torque in conjunction with
systems such as the ABS and TCS to
help control side slip when driving on
slippery surfaces, or during sudden or
evasive steering, which enhances
vehicle stability.
Refer to ABS (page 4-63) and TCS
(page 4-64).
DSC operation is possible at speeds
greater than 20 km/h (12 mph).
The warning light turns on when the
system has a malfunction.
Refer to TCS/DSC Indication/
Indicator Light (Turns on) on page
7-27.
WARNING
Do not rely on the Dynamic Stability
Control as a substitute for safe
driving:
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
cannot compensate for unsafe and
reckless driving , excessive speed,
tailgating (following another vehicle
too closely), and hydroplaning
(reduced tire friction and road contact
because of water on the road surface).
You can still have an accident.
CAUTION
The DSC may not operate correctly
unless the following are observed:
Use tires of the correct size
speci fied for your Mazda on all 4
wheels.
Use tires of the same
manufacturer, brand and tread
pattern on all 4 wheels.
Do not mix worn tires.
The DSC may not operate correctly
when tire chains are used or a
temporary spare tire is installed
because the tire diameter changes.
NOTE
If there is a problem with the DSC, the
Hill Launch Assi st (HLA) may not
operate.
Refer to Hill Launch Assist (HLA) on
page 4-61.
▼ TCS/DSC Indicator Light
When the power switch is switched
ON, the TCS/DSC indicator light turns
on and then turns
off after a few
seconds. If the TCS or DSC is
operating , the indicator light flashes.
If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or
the brake assist system may have a
malfunction and they may not operate
correctly. Take your vehicle to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.

NOTE
When the power switch is switched OFF, the system status before it was turned off
is maintained. For example, if the power switch is switched OFF while the parking
sensor is activated, the system will be activated when the power switch is switched
ON the next time.
The system may not operate normally under the following conditions:
Mud, ice, or snow is adhering to the sensor area (Returns to normal operation
when removed).
The sensor area is frozen (Returns to normal operation when the ice is thawed).The sensor is covered by a hand.The sensor is excessively shocked.The vehicle is excessively tilted.Under extremely hot or cold weather conditions.The vehicle is driven on bumps, inclines, gravel, grating, or grass covered roads.Anything which generates ultrasonic wave s such as another vehicle's horn, the
engine sound of a motorcycle, the air brake sound of a large-sized vehicle, or
another vehicle's sensors approaches the vehicle.
The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or in road conditions causing water-splash.A commercially-available fender pole or an antenna for a radio transmitter is
installed to the vehicle.
The vehicle is moving towards a tall or square curbstone, or a steep grade.An obstruction is too close to the sensor.The vehicle is moving towards an uneven wall or stairs.There are multiple obstructions.The vehicle is driven in a place with low ceilings.Obstructions under the bumper cannot be detected. Obstructions which are
lower than the sensor or thin may not be detected even though they were
detected once.
The following types of obstructions may not be detected:
Thin objects such as wire, rope or polesThings which absorb sonic waves easily such as cotton or snowAngular shaped objectsVery tall objects, and those which are wide at the topSmall, short objectsAlways have the system inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer if any shock is
applied to the bumpers, even in a minor accident. If the sensors are deviated, they
cannot detect obstructions.
The system may have a malfunction if a sound is not activated or the detection
indication is not displayed even when th e parking sensor OFF switch is pressed
and the parking sensor is operable. Have your vehicle inspected by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
The system may have a malfunction if the indicator light does not turn on even
when the parking sensor OFF switch is turned on. Have your vehicle inspected by
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Authorized Mazda Dealer.
▼ 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 brake
system warning light and ABS warning
light illuminated. Have the vehicle
towed to an Authorized Mazda
Dealer to have the brakes inspected as
