Starting the EV System
▼Before Starting the EV System
1. Make sure that the parking brake is
applied.
2. Make sure that the selector lever is
in the P position.
NOTE
The EV system cannot be started
when the selector lever is in a
position other than P.
Shift the selector lever to the P
position.
3. Assume the correct driving posture
to make sure that the accelerator
pedal and the brake pedal can be
firmly depressed with the right foot.
Check the pedal positions to make
sure that one cannot be depressed
for the other by mistake.
▼ Starting the EV System
WARNING
Radio waves from the key may a
ffect
medical devices such as pacemakers:
Before using the key near people who
use medical devices, ask the medical
device manufacturer or your physician
if radio waves from the key will aff ect
the device.
NOTE
The EV system can be started
regardless of the power switch
position (OFF, ACC, ON).
The key must be carried by the
driver.
If this function is disabled, the EV
system cannot be started even if the
key is carried. Consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer for details.
If the function to start the EV system
only by carrying the key is disabled,
the EV system can be started using
the procedure for starting the EV
system when the key battery is dead.
When the charge connector is
connected to the charge port or
during charging, the EV system
cannot be started.
The vehicle can be driven while the
READY indication is displayed in the
instrument cluster.
1. Make sure you are carrying the key.
2. Continue to depress the brake pedal firmly.
3. Make sure that the KEY indicator
light in the instrument cluster and
power switch indicator light (green)
turn on.
When the power switch indicator
light (green) is flashing, the key
battery might be depleted.

NOTE
When the high voltage battery
temperature is high or low, the output
may be restricted to protect the EV
system.
▼High Voltage Battery Power Gauge
The remaining power of the high
voltage battery is indicated when the
power switch is switched ON.
When the high voltage battery is fully
charged, F is indicated. As the level
lowers, the needle approaches E.
When the high voltage battery charge
decreases to 1/4 or lower, we
recommend charging the battery.
1. F (Fully charged)
2. 1/4 charged
3. E (Fully discharged)
When the remaining charge of the high
voltage battery is low, output may be
restricted. If the output is restricted,
charge the battery as soon as possible.
NOTE
After charging, it may require some
time for the needle to stabilize.
The arrow indicates that the
charging port is on the right side.
▼ Dashboard Illumination
When the lights are turned on with the
power switch switched ON, the
brightness of the dashboard
illumination is dimmed. However,
when the light sensor detects that the
surrounding area is bright such as
when the lights are turned on in the
daytime, the dashboard illumination
does not dim.
NOTE
When the power switch is switched
ON in the early evening or at dusk,
the dashboard illumination is
dimmed for several seconds until the
light sensor detects the brightness of
the surrounding area, however, the
dimming may cancel after the
brightness is detected.
When the lights are turned on, the
lights-on indicator light in the
instrument cluster turns on.
Refer to Headlights on page 4-35.
The brightness of the instrument panel
and dashboard illuminations can be
adjusted by pressing the dashboard
illumination switch while the
dashboard illumination is dimmed.
The brightness increases by pressing
the + switch.
The brightness decreases by pressing
the - switch. If you press the - switch
while the instrument cluster is at
maximum dimness, a sound is
activated to notify you that the

WARNING
Do not drive the vehicle with the
parking brake applied:
If the vehicle is driven with the parking
brake applied, the brake parts may
generate heat and the brake system
may not operate, leading to an
accident.
Before driving the vehicle, release the
parking brake and make sure that the
EPB indicator light in the instrument
cluster turns o ff.
Apply the parking brake when leaving
the vehicle:
Not applying the parking brake when
parking the vehicle is dangerous as the
vehicle may move unexpectedly and
result in an accident. Before leaving the
vehicle, apply the parking brake and
make sure that the EPB indicator light
in the instrument cluster turns on.
NOTE
The parking brake cannot be applied
or released while the vehicle battery
is dead.
Refer to Jump-Starting on page
7-12.
When the power switch is switched
OFF while the charging system
warning light in the instrument
cluster turns on, the parking brake
cannot be applied. Before switching
the power switch OFF, apply the
parking brake manually.
The sound of the parking brake being
applied or released can be heard,
however, this does not indicate a
problem.
If the EPB is no t used for long
periods, an automatic inspection of
the system is performed while the
vehicle is parked. An operation
sound can be heard, however, this
does not indicate a problem.
When applying the parking brake
and switching the power switch OFF,
an operation sound can be heard,
however, this does not indicate a
problem.
The brake pedal may move while
applying or releasing the parking
brake, however, this does not
indicate a problem.
If there is a problem with the brake
system (foot brake) while driving the
vehicle, continually pulling up the
EPB switch will apply the brakes and
decelerate or stop the vehicle. The
parking brake on-reminder sound is
activated while the brake is applied.
In addition, when releasing the
switch, the brake is released and the
sound stops.
If the parking brake is applied with
the power switch switched OFF or in
ACC, the EPB indicator light in the
instrument cluster and the indicator
light in the EPB switch may flash for
15 seconds.
