How to Use the High
Beam Control System (HBC)
NOTE
The distance in which the HBC can
detect objects varies depending on
the surrounding conditions.
The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)
may not be able to detect target
objects correctly, and the HBC may
not operate normally.
Refer to Forward Sensing Camera
(FSC) on page 5-127.
Using the HBC
Make sure that the light switch is in the
AUTO position.
The HBC determines the surrounding
conditions and operates automatically.
When the HBC operates, the HBC
indicator light (green)
in the
instrument cluster turns on.
Switching the headlights to high
beams
The HBC switches the headlights to
high beams when all of the following
conditions are met.
The vehicle speed is about 30 km/h
(19 mph) or faster.
The system does not detect a vehicle
ahead.
Switching the headlights to low
beams
The HBC switches the headlights to
low beams when any of the following
conditions is met.
The vehicle speed is less than about
20 km/h (12 mph).
When driving in areas with a
continuous line of street lamps or on
roads in well-lit cities and towns.
The system detects the headlights of
a vehicle ahead.
Canceling the HBC during operation
When the HBC is canceled, the HBC
indicator light (green)
in the
instrument cluster turns off.
Press the HBC switch again to make
the HBC operable.
NOTE
If the vehicle power is switched OFF
with the HBC turned off, the HBC
automatically turns on the next time
the vehicle power is switched ON.

CAUTION
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial
tires that have an asymmetrical tread
pattern or studs only from front to rear,
not from side to side. Tire performance
will be reduced if rotated from side to
side.
Replacing a Tire or aWheel
WARNING
Always use tires that are in good
condition.
Driving with worn tires is dangerous.
Reduced braking , steering , and
traction could result in an accident.
Replace all four tires at the same
time.
Replacing just one tire is dangerous. It
could cause poor handling and poor
braking resulting in loss of vehicle
control. Mazda strongly recommends
that you replace all four tires at the
same time.
Always use wheels of the correct size
on your vehicle.
Using a wrong-sized wheel is
dangerous. Braking and handling could
be affected, leading to loss of control
and an accident.
CAUTION
A wrong-sized wheel may adversely
affect:
 Tire fit
 Wheel and bearing life
 Ground clearance
 Snow-chain clearance
 Speedometer calibration
 Headlight aim
 Bumper height
 Tire Pressure Monitoring System
If a tire wears evenly, a wear indicator
will appear as a solid band across the
tread.

Replace the tire when this happens.
1. New tread
2. Worn tread
3. Tread wear indicator

You should replace the tire before the
band crosses the entire tread.
NOTE
Tires degrade over time, even when
they are not being used on the road. It
is recommended that tires generally be
replaced when they are 6 years or
older. Heat caused by hot climates or
frequent high loading conditions can
accelerate the aging process. You
should replace the spare tire when you
replace the other road tires due to the
aging of the spare tire. The period in
which the tire was manufactured (both
week and year) is indicated by a 4-digit
number.
Refer to Tire Labeling on page 10-30.
Replacing Light Bulbs
All the light bulbs are the LED type.
The LED bulb cannot be replaced as a
single unit because it is an integrated
unit.
The LED bulb has to be replaced with
the unit. If a replacement is necessary,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Adjusting the Headlight Aim
If the headlight cannot be adjusted
using procedure below, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
1. Make sure the vehicle has a fulltank of gasoline and the area
around the headlight is not
deformed.
2. Park the vehicle on level ground.
3. Sit in the driver's seat.
4. Bounce the vehicle several times.
5. Using a Phillips-head screw-driver, turn bolt A in either direction.
Remember the turning direction
and the number of turns.
6. Turn bolt B the same number of turns and in the same direction as
step 5.

1. Adjustment bolt A
2. Adjustment bolt B
