NOTE: The HL A system will hold the vehicle for a maximum of 2.0 seconds
while the driver is changing from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
Transmission
ACTIVE ADAPTIVE SHIFT (AAS) CONTROL
A AS will automatically adjust how and when the
transmission shifts gears based on road conditions
and your driving style.
The transmission may stay in a lower gear longer
than usual when going up or down hills or driving
around corners. This feature gives you better control
and a more connected driving experience.
HILL LAUNCH ASSIST (HLA)
HLA helps assist you when accelerating
the vehicle from a stop
while on a hill or slope.
When the brake
pedal is released
and the accelerator
pedal is pushed,
HLA prevents the
vehicle from rolling forward or backward. It operates on a downward slope
when the shift lever is in the reverse (R) position, and on an upward slope
when the shift lever is in a position other than the reverse (R) position.
DRIVE SEL ECTION
SPORT mode will choose a lower gear for
increased acceleration response. It will also
hold a lower gear/delay upshifting when
it detects you are braking or cornering
because it anticipates that you will want
to accelerate out of the turn more quickly.
Push the SPORT button to switch to SPORT
mode and the SPORT mode indicator light in the
instrument cluster turns on. Push again to turn off.
NOTE:
• If the SET button of the cruise control is pushed while in SPORT mode, SPORT
mode is switched off. SPORT mode cannot be turned on or off when cornering.
• When the ignition is switched off, SPORT mode is also switched off.
• Fuel consumption increases slightly when using SPORT mode.

i -ELOOP (if equipped)
The Mazda unique regenerative braking system (i-ELOOP) generates
and stores electrical energy in a capacitor during deceleration. Through
efficient energy regeneration, storage, and usage, fuel economy is
improved. To view i-ELOOP information, select Applications from
the Home screen, then scroll down to Fuel Economy Monitor.
i-ELOOP Pre-Charge Mode
If the capacitor is discharged because of vehicle storage (the vehicle \
is
parked for long periods of time), the i-ELOOP indicator in the instrume\
nt
cluster will flash and a
warning screen appears
on the screen of the
infotainment system.
When this warning screen appears, do not drive the
vehicle. Allow the engine to idle until the warning
screen disappears. This time is needed for normal
generator operation.
