When Driving
Drive Selection
*Some models.
Drive Selection *
Drive selection is a system to switch the vehicle's drive mode. When the sport mode
is selected, vehicle's response against accelerator operation is enhanced. This provides
additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make manoeuvres such as lane
changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
CAUTION
Do not use the sport mode when driving on slippery roads such as wet or snow-covered
roads. It may cause tyre slipping.
NOTE
  When the sport mode is selected, driving at higher engine speeds increases and it may
increase fuel consumption. Mazda recommends that you cancel the sport mode on
normal driving.
  Drive mode cannot be switched in the following conditions:




 ABS/TCS/DSC is operating



 Cruise control is operating.



 Steering wheel is being operated abruptly

CAUTION
If the set speed is set lower than the current vehicle speed by pressing the SET or
RESUME/
switch, the warning beep is not activated for about 30 seconds even if the
vehicle speed is faster than the newly set speed by 3 km/h (2 mph). Be careful not to drive
over the set speed.
NOTE
When the system is temporarily cancelled by depressing the accelerator pedal fully, the
adjustable speed limiter display shows the cancel display. If the vehicle speed exceeds the
set speed by about 3 km/h (2 mph) or more while the cancel display is displayed, the set
speed display À ashes but the warning sound is not operated.
Activation/Deactivation
NOTE
When the ignition is switched off, the system status before it was turned off is maintained.
For example, if the ignition is switched off while the adjustable speed limiter is operating,
the system will be operable when the ignition is switched ON the next time.
Activation
(Type A Instrument Cluster)
Press the MODE switch to operate the system. The adjustable speed limiter screen is
displayed, and the adjustable speed limiter main indication displays in white.
NOTE
When the cruise control is operating after pressing the MODE switch, press the mode
switch again to switch to the adjustable speed limiter.
