Convenient Ways to Usethe e-SKYACTIV PHEV
Switch to Start in EV Mode
The hybrid system can be changed to
start in EV mode.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
Switching the Regenerative Braking
Strength
The regenerative braking strength can
be changed.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
For Eco-Friendly and Economical
Driving
Using the Drive Mode
EV mode is mainly used in urban areas,
while NORMAL mode is used in
suburban areas and on expressways,
which leads to savings in electricity and
fuel consumption.
By actively using regenerative braking
to charge the high voltage battery, it is
possible to increase the EV travel
distance and to reduce fuel
consumption when driving the vehicle
in a mode other than EV mode.
To extend cruising distance
The electrical power consumption
while driving can be reduced and the
cruising distance can be extended by
doing the following operations.
With the charge connector
connected, turn on the climate
control system to provide a
comfortable temperature in the
cabin before driving.
When driving during cold
temperatures, use the seat warmer or
steering warmer instead of the
climate control system.
Adjust the climate control system to
a moderate airflow and temperature
setting.
Refrain from using the defogger
under conditions other than when a
window is fogged or frozen.
By maintaining a sufficient distance
between vehicles and using the
regenerative braking well, more
electrical power can be charged to
the high voltage battery.
To extend the life of the high voltage
battery
The high voltage battery life changes
depending on the vehicle storage
conditions or charging method.
To extend the life of the high voltage
battery, be careful of the following.
(Charging the battery)
Avoid unnecessary, frequent
charging.
Only charge the battery with as much
power as needed, and do not always
fully charge the battery. The
maximum charge limit can be set.
Refer to Convenient Ways to Use of
Charging on page 5-118.
(Parking the vehicle)
Do not park the vehicle in a place
where the ambient temperature is
extremely high or low.
Do not leave the vehicle while the
remaining high voltage battery power
is extremely low.
If the [Battery Cooling] operation notification is displayed on the
center display after driving the
vehicle, select [Activate].

How to Use the LightSwitch
NOTE
Headlights which do not blind drivers
approaching in the opposite direction
have been adopted. Therefore, it is not
necessary to adjust the optical axis of
the headlights even when traveling
temporarily in a country where vehicles
are driven on the right-hand side of the
road.
Using the Lights Automatically
Using the Auto Light*
Make sure that the light switch is in the
AUTO position.
The daytime running lights turn on
automatically when it is bright, and the
headlights, parking lights, taillights,
side-marker lights, and the license
plate lights turn on automatically when
it is dark.
When the parking lights, taillights,
side-marker lights, and the license
plate lights are turned on, the parking
lights indicator light
in the
instrument cluster turns on.
NOTE
If the surroundings remain dark for
several minutes even during daytime,
the light sensor determines that it is
nighttime, and the lights may not
turn off immediately even if the
surroundings become bright.
The illumination timing for the
headlights can be changed.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
Using the Daytime Running Lights
The daytime running lights turn on
while driving in bright surroundings
such as during the day.
NOTE
(Only in regions where daytime
running lights are not mandatory)
The daytime running lights can be set
so that they do not to turn on.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
Using the Lights Manually

If dirt or ice is adheres to the top of
the rain sensor on the windshield
and the windshield wipers cannot
remove the dirt or ice even after the
wipers operate several times, the
auto wipers will stop operating. If
the auto wipers stopped, remove the
dirt and ice from the windshield.
The auto wipers could operate from
the effect of strong light sources,
electromagnetic waves, or infrared
light because the rain sensor uses an
optical sensor. It is recommended
that the auto-wiper lever be
switched to the OFF position other
than when driving the vehicle under
rainy conditions.
Changing sensitivity of auto wipers
The rain sensitivity level can be
adjusted by rotating the switch.
1. Higher sensitivity
2. Normal
3. Less sensitivity
Using the Intermittent Wiper
*
The wipers operate intermittently.
Changing the intermittent operation
time
The intermittent operation time can be
adjusted by turning the switch.
1. Fast
2. Normal
3. Slow
Using the Windshield Wipers
