Indicator light
: $ 5 1 , 1 *
Do not drive the vehicle with the parking
brake applied:
If the vehicle is driven with the parking
brake applied, the brake parts may
generate heat and the brake system may
not operate, leading to an accident.
Before driving, release the parking brake
and verify that the EPB indicator light is
turned off.
NOTE
xThe parking brake cannot be applied or
released while the vehicle battery is
dead.
xAn operation sound occurs when
applying or releasing the parking brake,
however, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
xIf the EPB is not used for long periods,
an automatic inspection of the system is
performed while the vehicle is parked.
An operation sound can be heard,
however, this does not indicate a
problem.
xWhen the parking brake is applied and
the ignition is switched OFF, an
operation sound can be heard, however,
this does not indicate a problem.
xThe brake pedal may move while the
parking brake is being applied or
released, however, this does not indicate
a problem.
xIf the EPB switch is continually pulled
while driving the vehicle, the parking
brake will be applied and the EPB
warning beep will be activated. When
the switch is released, the parking brake
is released and the beep stops.
xIf the parking brake is applied with the
ignition switched off or in ACC, the EPB
indicator light in the instrument cluster
and the indicator light in the switch may
turn on for 15 seconds.
xWhen running the vehicle through an
automatic car wash, it may be necessary
to switch the ignition off with the
parking brake released depending on
the type of automatic car wash.

Do not rely completely on the AUTOHOLD function:
The AUTOHOLD function is only designed to assist the brake operation while the vehicle is
stopped. Neglecting to operate the brakes and relying only on the AUTOHOLD system is
dangerous and could result in an unexpected accident if the vehicle were to suddenly move.
Operate the brakes appropriately in accordance with the road and surrounding conditions.
Do not release your foot from the brake pedal while the vehicle is stopped on a steep grade:
Because there is a possibility of the vehicle not being held in the stopped position by the
AUTOHOLD function, the vehicle may move unexpectedly and result in an accident.
Do not use the AUTOHOLD function on slippery roads such as icy or snow-covered roads, or
unpaved roads:
Even if the vehicle is held in the stopped position by the AUTOHOLD function, the vehicle may
move unexpectedly and result in an accident. Operate the accelerator pedal, brakes, or
steering wheel appropriately as necessary.
Immediately depress the brake pedal in the following cases:
Because the AUTOHOLD function is cancelled forcibly, the vehicle may move unexpectedly
and result in an accident.
¾The brake pedal operation demand warning light (red) flashes and the warning sound is
activated at the same time.
(Red)
¾[Brake Hold Unavailable Depress Brake to Hold Position] is displayed in the
multi-information display and the warning sound is activated at the same time.

Always apply the parking brake when parking the vehicle:
Not applying the parking brake when parking the vehicle is dangerous as the vehicle may
move unexpectedly and result in an accident. When parking the vehicle, shift the selector
lever to the P position (automatic transaxle vehicle) and apply the parking brake.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
If you stop operating the accelerator pedal before the vehicle starts moving, the force holding
the vehicle in the stopped position may weaken. Firmly depress the brake pedal or depress the
accelerator pedal to accelerate the vehicle.
NOTE
xUnder the following conditions, a problem with the AUTOHOLD is occurring. Have your
vehicle inspected at an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer as
soon as possible.

NOTE
xFlashing
When you bring your vehicle to a
complete stop while all the direction
indicator lights are flashing rapidly, the
rapid flashing of all the direction
indicator lights changes back to the
normal flashing pattern. When the
hazard warning light switch is pressed,
all of the direction indicator lights turn
off.
xOperation
xWhen the ABS operates, the
emergency stop signal system is more
likely to operate. Therefore, if the
brake pedal is depressed on a slippery
road, all of the direction indicator
lights may flash.
xThe emergency stop signal system
does not operate when the hazard
warning light switch is pressed.

The functions of the LDWS have limitations:
Always stay on course using the steering wheel and drive with care. The system is not
designed to compensate for a driver’s lack of caution and if you rely too much on the LDWS it
could lead to an accident. The driver is responsible for assuring lane changes and other
manoeuvres. Always pay attention to the direction in which the vehicle is travelling and the
vehicle’s surroundings.
& $ 8 7 , 2 1
Do not modify the suspension. If the vehicle height or the damping force of the suspensions is
changed, the LDWS may not operate correctly.
NOTE
xIf your vehicle deviates from its traffic lane, the LDWS operates (warning sound and
indicator light). Steer the vehicle adequately to drive the vehicle to the centre of the lane.
xWhen the direction indicator lever is operated for a lane change, the LDWS warning is
automatically cancelled. The LDWS warning becomes operable when the direction
indicator lever is returned and the system detects the white or yellow lines.
xIf the steering wheel, accelerator pedal, or brake pedal is operated abruptly and the
vehicle moves close to a white or yellow line, the system determines that the driver is
making a lane change and the LDWS warning is automatically cancelled.
xThe LDWS may not operate during the period immediately after the vehicle has deviated
from its lane and the LDWS has operated, or the vehicle deviates from its lane repeatedly
within a short period of time.
xThe LDWS does not operate if it does not detect the white or yellow lines of the traffic
lane.
xUnder the following conditions, the LDWS may not be able to detect white or yellow lines
correctly and the LDWS may not operate correctly.
xIf an object placed on the instrument panel is reflected in the windscreen and picked up
by the camera.
xHeavy luggage is loaded in the luggage compartment or on the rear seat and the
vehicle is inclined.
xThe tyre pressures are not adjusted to the specified pressure.
xWhen the vehicle is driven on the entry and exit to or from the rest area or tollgate of a
highway.
xThe white or yellow lines are less visible because of dirt or paint flaking.
xThe vehicle ahead is running near a white or yellow line and the line is less visible.
xA white or yellow line is less visible because of bad weather (rain, fog, or snow).
xThe vehicle is driven on a temporary lane or section with a closed lane due to
construction.

Always check the surrounding area visually before making an actual lane change:
The system is only designed to assist you in checking for vehicles at your rear when making a
lane change. Due to certain limitations with the operation of this system, the BSM warning
indicator light, the warning sound and the warning screen indicator display may not activate
or they might be delayed even though a vehicle is in an adjacent driving lane. Always make it
your responsibility as a driver to check the rear.
