Traction Control System(TCS)
The TCS prevents drive-wheel spinning
which occurs during acceleration from
a stop or acceleration during cornering
on slippery roads, such as wet or
snow-covered roads, and assures
optimum drive force and steerability.
Warning and Cautions forUsing the Traction
Control System (TCS)
WARNING
Do not rely on the Traction Control
System (TCS) as a substitute for safe
driving.
The Traction Control System (TCS)
cannot compensate for unsafe and
reckless driving, excessive speed,
tailgating (following another vehicle
too closely), and hydroplaning
(reduced tire friction and road contact
because of water on the road surface).
You can still have an accident.
Use snow tires or tire chains and drive
at reduced speeds when roads are
covered with ice and/or snow.
Driving without proper traction devices
on snow and/or ice-covered roads is
dangerous. The Traction Control
System (TCS) alone cannot provide
adequate traction and you could still
have an accident.

Warning and Cautions forUsing the Mazda
intelligent Drive Select
(Mi-Drive)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the
Mi-Drive system.
Vehicle stability is limited even when
Mi-Drive is activated. Always drive the
vehicle safely. Do not drive the vehicle
recklessly, otherwise it may result in an
accident.
Do not use OFF-ROAD mode when
driving on a paved road.
Use Off-road mode when driving on
slippery roads such as muddy, sandy,
or deep-snowy road s. During normal
driving, use normal mode.
CAUTION
 Do not use the sport mode when
driving on slippery roads such as wet
or snow-covered roads. It may cause
tire slipping.
 Heed the following cautions so that
the system can operate normally.
 Always use tires of the
specified
size, same manufacturer, brand,
and pattern (tread pattern) for the
front and rear wheels.
 Do not use tires with significantly
different wear patterns on the
same vehicle.
 Drive carefully when using tire
chains. Because the diameter of the
tires
differs, the system may not
operate normally.
How to Use the Mazda
intelligent Drive Select (Mi-Drive)
1. Push the Mi-Drive switch forwardor pull it toward you.
2. While checking the list displayed inthe instrument cluster, push the
Mi-Drive switch forward or pull it
toward you to select a drive mode.
When the drive mode is set, the
display in the instrument cluster
changes.

high-beam headlights).
The surrounding area is dark (such as
during the night, early evening, or
early morning, or in a tunnel or
indoor parking lot).
There are light sources in the
surrounding area (such as street
lamps, illuminated signboards, andtraffic signals).
There are objects which reflect light
(such as reflective plates and signs)
in the surrounding area.
The surrounding brightness suddenly
changes (such as when entering or
exiting a tunnel).
The brightness of the headlights of
your vehicle is insufficient (such as

used on your vehicle (such as when
tire chains or temporary spare tires
are used).
The tires on your vehicle havesignificantly different wear.
Foreign matter is stuck to the
windshield (such as ice, fog, snow,
frost, raindrops, dirt, or a piece of
plastic).
The windshield is dirty or fogged.The Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) is
blocked by an obstruction, causing
poor forward visibility (such as when
roof rails are installed to the vehicle
and a long object is loaded).

Lane-keep Assist System(LAS)
*
The LAS is a system to help the driver
stay within the vehicle lane if the
vehicle might be deviating.
If your vehicle may be deviating from
the vehicle lane, the LAS provides
steering assistance to avoid departure
from the lane.
Warnings and Cautions
for Using the Lane-keep Assist System (LAS)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the LAS.
The LAS is not an automated driving
system. Over reliance on the system
could lead to an accident.
 The functions of the LAS have
limitations. Do not rely completely
on the system and always stay on
course using the steering wheel.
Do not use the LAS under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident.
 The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
 Tires other than the specified size are
used, such as when tire chains or
temporary spare tires are used.
 Tires with insufficient tread are used.
 The tire pressures are not adjusted to
the specified pressure.
 The vehicle is towing a camping
trailer or boat trailer.
 The vehicle is driven on roads other
than expressways or highways with
white (yellow) lines.
CAUTION
Heed the following cautions so that
the LAS can operate normally.
 Do not modify the vehicle's
suspensions.

Warnings and Cautions
for Using the Emergency Lane Keeping (ELK)
WARNING
Do not rely completely on the ELK.
The ELK has limitations. Do not rely
completely on the system and always
stay on course using the steering
wheel.
 The ELK is not an automated driving
system. Over reliance on the system
could lead to an accident.
 The detection range of the camera
and sensors is limited. If the steering
wheel operation assist is operated
without detecting a two-wheeled
vehicle near the detecting vehicle, it
could result in an accident.
Do not use the ELK under the
following conditions. Otherwise, it
may result in an accident.
The vehicle is driven on slippery
roads such as icy roads,
snow-covered roads, and unpaved
roads.
 Tires other than the specified size are
used, such as when tire chains or
temporary spare tires are used.
 (Blind Spot Assist)
The vehicle is driven on roads other
than expressways and highways.
 (Blind Spot Assist and Head-on

 Heed the following cautions to assure that the 360° view monitor operates
normally.
 Do not modify the suspensions.
 Always use wheels of the specified size for the front and rear wheels. Consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer for tire replacement.
 When the center display is cold, images may leave trails or the display might be
darker than usual, making it difficult to check the vehicle surroundings. Always
confirm the safety around the vehicle visually when driving.
 Recognizing images at night may be
difficult because there are no lights in the
shooting range of the side camera. Always confirm the safety around the vehicle
visually when driving.
 The method for parking/stopping the vehicle using the 360° View Monitor
differs
depending on the road conditions and ve hicle conditions. In addition, when and
how much you turn the steering wheel will differ depending on the situation,
therefore always check the vehicle surroundings directly with your eyes while using
the system.

Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tire
chains, window scraper, flares, a small
shovel, jumper cables, and a small bag
of sand or salt.
Ask an Authorized Mazda Dealer to
check the following:
Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in
the radiator.
Refer to Inspecting the Coolant on
page 9-14.
Inspect the battery and its cables.
Cold reduces battery capacity.
Use an engine oil appropriate for the
lowest ambient temperatures that
the vehicle will be driven in (page
9-18).
Inspect the ignition system for
damage and loose connections.
Use washer fluid made with
antifreeze―but do not use engine
coolant antifreeze for washer fluid
(page 9-17).
When driving on ice or in water, snow,
mud, sand, or similar hazards:
Be cautious and allow extra distance
for braking.
Avoid sudden braking and sudden
maneuvering.
Do not pump the brakes. Continue
to press down on the brake pedal.
Refer to Antilock Brake System (ABS)
on page 5-84.
If you get stuck, select a lower gear
and accelerate slowly. Do not spin
the rear wheels.
For more traction in starting on
slippery surfaces such as ice or
packed snow, use sand, rock salt,
chains, carpeting, or other nonslip
material under the rear wheels.
NOTE
Remove snow before driving. Snow
left on the windshield is dangerous
as it could obstruct vision.
Do not apply excessive force to a
window scraper when removing ice
or frozen snow on the mirror glass
and windshield.
Never use warm or hot water for
removing snow or ice from windows
and mirrors as it could result in the
glass cracking.
Drive slowly. Braking performance
can be adversely affected if snow or
ice adheres to the brake
components. If this situation occurs,
drive the vehicle slowly, releasing the
accelerator pedal and lightly applying
the brakes several times until the
brake performance returns to
normal.
