i-ELOOP
i-ELOOP *
On conventional vehicles, the kinetic energy that is generated when the vehicle is
decelerated by applying the brakes or during engine braking ends up being discarded as
heat. By utilizing this discarded kinetic energy to generate electricity and use it to power the
vehicle's electrical devices and accessories such as the A/C and audio, fuel consumption can
be reduced. Mazda's system for generating electricity from this kinetic energy is called the
Regenerative Braking System (i-ELOOP).

A capacitor is incorporated as the device for storing the generated electricity, which can
store and use large amounts of electricity instantly.

NOTE
y When installing high power consumption devices such high-output speakers, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
y A difference in the fuel economy may occur depending on use conditions such as with the
A/C and headlights.
y If the capacitor is to be disposed of, always consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer. For

Fuel Economy Monitor
Fuel Economy Monitor *
For vehicles with type B audio, the Control Status and Fuel Consumption are switched and
displayed by operating each icon in the display.
In addition, after completing a trip, the total energy effi ciency to date is displayed in the
ending display when the ending display is turned on.
1. Select the (
) icon on the home screen to display the Applications screen.
2. Select the Fuel Economy Monitor.
3. Operate the commander switch or touch the screen and display the menu.
NOTE
When the menu is displayed by touching the screen, the display is hidden automatically after
6 seconds.
4. Select the icon in the menu and perform the operation. Each icon operates as follows:

When Driving
Drive Selection
Drive Selection *
Mazda Drive Selection provides an opportunity to select a different driving characteristic
when SPORT mode is activated. By selecting SPORT mode, greater vehicle response
is achieved through automatic adjustments in transaxle shift control and engine throttle
control. This provides additional quick acceleration which may be needed to safely make
maneuvers such as lane changes, merging onto freeways, or passing other vehicles.
NOTE
If driving long distances in SPORT mode, the fuel economy will decrease due to the
frequency of driving in lower gears. Driving in SPORT mode all of the time is not
recommended. SPORT mode is best used only in situations requiring quick, responsive
driving.

When Driving
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
CAUTION
¾ Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and
infl ated to the infl ation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire infl ation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a diff erent size than the
size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire infl ation pressure label, you should determine
the proper tire infl ation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring
system ( TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires
is signifi cantly under-infl ated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and infl ate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a signifi cantly under-infl ated tire causes the tire to overheat and can
lead to tire failure. Under-infl ation also reduces fuel effi ciency and tire tread life, and may
aff ect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-infl ation has not
reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when
the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction, the telltale will fl ash for approximately one minute and then
remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated,
the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement
or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on
your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.
¾ To avoid false readings, the system samples for a little while before indicating a problem.
As a result it will not instantaneously register a rapid tire defl ation or blow out.
