Electric Power SteeringWarning Light
The warning light turns on if the
electric power steering has a
malfunction.
If the warning light turns on, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and switch the
vehicle power OFF.
There is no problem if the warning light
turns off when the hybrid system is
restarted after some time has passed.
If the warning light turns on even after
the hybrid system is restarted, contact
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
NOTE
If the warning light turns on, the
electric power steering will not
operate normally. In this case, the
steering wheel can still be operated,
however, the operation may feel
heavy compared to normal.
Repeatedly jerking the steering
wheel left and right while the vehicle
is stopped or moving extremely
slowly will cause the power steering
system to go into protective mode
which will make the steering feel
heavy, but this does not indicate a
problem. If this occurs, park the
vehicle safely and do not operate the
steering wheel. The system will
return to normal after a few minutes.

parking or stopping the vehicle, as it
may not be possible to hold the
vehicle in a stopped position even with
the selector lever in the P position.
In addition, the hybrid system may not
start again if it is stopped.
