Headlights (cont’d from pg.13)
With AFS
Without AFS
NOTE: 
•	 	
With	AFS,	it	is	normal	to	see	the	headlights	move	and	hear	the	sound	of	the 		
headlight	leveling	motors	at	the	front	of	the	vehicle	when	the	ignition	is	ON.
•	 	
The	system	will	need	to	be	reset	if	the	vehicle	battery	has	been	disconnected 		
or	the	system	fuse	has	been	replaced.	Please	refer	to	your	Owner’s	Manual	for 		
easy	to	follow	resetting	instructions.
A DAPTIVE  FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS)  (if equipped)
The adaptive front-lighting system (AFS) automatically turns the 
headlight beam to the right or left in conjunction with the direction of 
the steering wheel.	
The	AFS	improves	the	direction	of	headlight	illumination	while	cornering,	and 	
only	works	when	the	vehicle	is	moving.
Push	AFS	OFF	to	turn	
system	off	or	on.	When	off, 	
AFS	OFF	illuminates	in	the 	
instrument	panel.

T
IRE  PRESSURE  MONITORING  SYSTEM  (TPMS)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) 
that detects low tire pressure in one or more tires. In the following cases, 
the TPMS must be “initialized” so the system can operate normally.
	 •	 The	tire	pressure	is	adjusted	(up	or	down)	in	one	or	more	tires.
	 •		 A	tire	rotation	is	performed.
	 •	 	
Any	tire	or	wheel	is	replaced.
	 •	 	
The	vehicle’s	battery	is	disconnected,	replaced	or	completely	dead. 	
Initialization Process (TPMS Warning Light  is Illuminated):
	1		
Park	the	vehicle	in	a	safe	place	and	firmly	apply	the	parking	brake.
	 2		
Let	the	tires	cool,	then	adjust	the	tire	pressure	to	the	specified 		
pressure	(See	tire	label	located	on	the	driver’s	side	B-pillar	or	edge 		
of	driver’s	door	frame	for	specification)	on	all	four	(4)	tires.
	 3		
Switch	the	ignition	ON,	but	leave	the	vehicle	parked.
	 4		
Push	and	hold	the	TPMS	“Set	Switch”	(left	side	of	dash) 		
until	the	TPMS	warning	light	
	 in	the	instrument	cluster	flashes	twice
	
and	a 		
beep	sound	is	heard	once.
NOTE:		 See	Page	9	for	TPMS	switch	location.
CAUTION: 	If	the	TPMS	“Set	Switch”	is	pushed	without	adjusting	the	tire 	
pressure,	the	system	cannot	detect	the	normal	tire	pressure.	The	TPMS 	
warning	light	may	not	illuminate,	even	if	the	tire	pressure	is	low,	or	it	may 	
illuminate	if	the	tire	pressure	is	normal.
ALUMINUM WHEEL CARE 
Your	aluminum	wheels	have	a	protective 	
coating	on	them.	Only	use	a	mild	soap	or 	
neutral	detergent	with	a	sponge	or	soft	cloth 	
to	clean	them.

Mirrors
Auto-Dimming Mirror
	 •		
Auto-dimming	will	automatically	darken	your	rearview	mirror	to	reduce 	
headlight	glare	from	vehicles	behind	you. 	
	 •	 	
Auto-dimming	is	activated	every	time	the	engine	is	started.
NOTE:
 In	addition	to	the	auto-dimming	mirror’s	rear	light	sensor,	there	is	also	a	front	
light	sensor	(not	shown).	Do	not	place	or	hang	any	objects	over	the	front	or	rear	mirror	
light	sensors;	otherwise,	the	auto-dimming	mirror	will	not	operate	properly.
HomeLink®
	 •	 	 This	feature	provides	a	convenient	way	to	replace	up	to	three 	
transmitters	such	as	garage	door	openers,	home	lighting	remotes 		
and	other	radio	frequency	devices.
	 •	 Refer	to	your	Owner’s	Manual	for	complete	programming	details.
NOTE:
 Genuine	Mazda	Accessory	Auto-Dimming	Mirror	with	Compass	and 	
Homelink	is	available	at	your	Authorized	Mazda	Dealer.

Blind Spot Monitor
NOTE:	Do	not	rely	completely	on	the	BSM	system	and	be	sure	to	look	over 	
your	shoulder	before	changing	lanes:  
•	 The	BSM	system	can	assist	the	driver	in	confirming	the	safety	of	the		 	
	 surroundings,	but	is	not	a	complete	substitute. 	
•	 The	driver	is	responsible	for	ensuring	safe	lane	changes	and	other	maneuvers. 	
•	 Always	pay	attention	to	the	direction	in	which	the	vehicle	is	traveling	and	the 		
	 vehicle’s 	surroundings. 	
•	 The	BSM	system	does	not	operate	when	the	vehicle	speed	is	lower	than		
	 about	20	mph	(32	km/h).
Turning b SM System Off
Turning	the	BSM	system	off	will	turn	off	both	the	light	and	sound	
indicators.	To	manually	turn	the	BSM	system	off,	push	the	BSM	
OFF	switch	on	the	dash.	The	BSM	OFF	indicator	will	illuminate	
in	the	instrument	cluster	when	the	BSM	system	is	off.	The	BSM	
system	will	automatically	turn	on	the	next	time	the	vehicle	is	started.
Your Vehicle
Detection Areas
bLIND  SPOT  MONITORING  (bSM) S YSTEM
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is designed to assist the driver 
by monitoring the blind spots to the rear of the vehicle on both sides.
	 •		 If	your	vehicle	speed	is	20	mph	(32	km/h)	or	more,	the	BSM	will	warn 	
you	of	vehicles	in	the	detection	area	by	illuminating	the	BSM	warning 	
lights	located	on	the	left	and	right	door	mirrors.
	 •	 	
If	you	operate	a	turn	signal	in	the	direction	of	an	illuminated	BSM	warning 	
light,	the	system	will	also	warn	you	with	a	beep	and	warning	light	flash.
	 •	 	
BSM	sensors	are	located	under	the	left	and	right	rear	bumper	areas. 	
The	BSM	system	may	not	operate	properly	if	the	rear	bumper	gets	too 	
dirty,	so	keep	the	rear	bumper	area	clean. 	
Please	refer	to	your	Owner’s	Manual	for	complete	details.
