CAUTION
In addition, the
effectiveness of the
braking may diminish so you may
need to depress the brake pedal
more strongly than normal to stop
the vehicle.
(With M Hybrid)
When starting the engine, the brake
system warning light may turn on and
the warning indication may be
displayed. In this case, park the
vehicle in a safe location and release
the brake pedal.

warning indication does not turn
off
even after parking the vehicle, have
the vehicle inspected by an

▼ 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

system warning light and ABS warning
light illuminated. Have the vehicle
towed to an Authorized Mazda
Dealer to have the brakes inspected as
soon as possible:
Driving when the brake system warning
light and ABS warning light are
illuminated simultaneously is
dangerous.
When both lights are illuminated, the
rear wheels could lock more quickly in
an emergency stop than under normal
circumstances.

CAUTION
Do not continue driving when the
charging system warning light is
illuminated because the engine could
stop unexpectedly.
