Warnings and Cautions for Using the Active DrivingDisplay
WARNING
Always adjust the display brightness and position with the vehicle stopped.
Adjusting the display brightness and position while driving the vehicle is dangerous
as doing so could distract your attention from the road ahead and lead to an
accident.
CAUTION
 Do not place beverages near the dust-proof sheet of the active driving display. If
water or other liquids are splashed on the dust-proof sheet, it could cause
damage.
 Do not place objects or apply stickers to the dust-proof sheet as they will cause
interference.

Warning and Cautions forUsing the Selector Lever
WARNING
Always apply the parking brake when
the selector lever is in the P position.
When parking the vehicle, only shifting
the selector lever to the P position is
dangerous as the vehicle may move
unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Do not move the selector lever from
the N or P position while the engine
speed is high.
Otherwise, the vehicle will move
suddenly which could lead to an
unexpected accident.
When operating the selector lever,
shift the selector lever with the brake
pedal firmly depressed and the
vehicle completely stopped.
Operating the selector lever while the
vehicle is moving could lead to an
unexpected accident.
Do not shift the selector lever with the
accelerator pedal depressed when the
selector lever is in the P or N position.
Always operate the selector lever with
the brake pedal depressed when the
selector lever is in the P or N position.
Otherwise, the vehicle will suddenly
accelerate which could lead to an
accident.
Do not shift the selector lever to the N
position while driving.
Otherwise, it could result in the loss of
the engine braking power and cause
an accident.
Do not depress the accelerator pedal
unnecessarily while the vehicle is
stopped.
If the accelerator pedal is mistakenly
depressed when the se lector lever is in
a position other than the P or N
position, the vehicle could suddenly
accelerate resulting in an accident.
After stopping the vehicle, check the
shift position indication in the
instrument cluster before
re-accelerating.
If the vehicle were to move
unexpectedly, it could lead to an
accident.
Do not allow the vehicle to move in
reverse on an upslope while the
selector lever is in forward drive, or
move forward on a downslope while
the selector lever is in reverse drive.
Otherwise, the engine could stop,
making the steering wheel difficult to
control, which could result in an
accident.
CAUTION
 When visually checking at the rear of
the vehicle while reversing the
vehicle, your body twists around to
the rear. Be careful and make sure
that the brake pedal can be firmly
depressed.
 Completely stop the vehicle before
shifting the select or lever to the P
position. If the selector lever is
shifted to P position before the
vehicle is completely stopped,
unnecessary force will be applied to
the transmission which could cause
damage.

Warnings and Cautionsfor Using the Steering Shift Switches
WARNING
Avoid using sudden engine braking
(shift-down).
If you apply sudden engine braking
(shift-down) while driving at high
speed or on wet roads, snow-covered
roads, or icy roads, the tires may slip
and cause an unexpected accident.

Warning and Cautions forUsing the Foot Brake
WARNING
Do not coast with the hybrid system
turned off, find a safe place to stop.
Coasting with the hybrid system turned
off is dangerous. Braking will require
more effort, and the brake's
power-assist could be depleted if you
pump the brake. This will cause longer
stopping distances or even an
accident.
Shift to a lower gear when going
down steep hills.
Driving with your foot continuously on
the brake pedal or steadily applying
the brakes for long distances is
dangerous. This causes overheated
brakes, resulting in longer stopping
distances or even total brake failure.
This could cause loss of vehicle control
and a serious accident. Avoid
continuous application of the brakes.
Dry off brakes that have become wet
by driving slowly, releasing the
accelerator pedal and lightly applying
the brakes several times until the
brake performance returns to normal.
Driving with wet brakes is dangerous.
Increased stopping distance or the
vehicle pulling to one side when
braking could result in a serious
accident. Light braking will indicate
whether the brakes have been
affected.
Do not drive with worn disc pads.
Driving with worn disc pads is
dangerous. The brakes could fail and
cause a serious accident. As soon as
you hear a screeching noise consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
CAUTION
 Do not drive with your foot held on
the brake pedal. Doing so could
result in the following:
 The brake parts will wear out more
quickly.
 The brakes can overheat and
adversely affect brake
performance.
 Always depress the brake pedal with
the right foot. Applying the brakes
with the unaccustomed left foot
could slow your reaction time to an
emergency situation resulting in
insufficient braking operation.
 Wear shoes appropriate for driving in
order to avoid your shoe contacting
the brake pedal when depressing the
accelerator pedal.
