Auto-light control*
When the headlight switch is in a position other than and the ignition is
switched ON, the light sensor senses th e surrounding lightness or darkness and
automatically turns the headlights an d other exterior lights on or off.
CAUTION
Do not shade the light sensor by adhering a sticker or a label on the windshield.
Otherwise the light sensor will not operate correctly.
 The light sensor also works as a rain sensor for the auto-wiper control. Keep hands
and scrapers clear of the windshield when the wiper lever is in the AUTO position
and the ignition is switched ON as fingers could be pinched or the wipers and
wiper blades could be damaged when the wipers activate automatically. If you are
going to clean the windshield, be sure the wipers are turned off completely when
it is particularly tempting to leave the engine running. This is particularly important
when clearing ice and snow.
NOTE
The headlights and other exterior lights may not turn off immediately even if the
surrounding area becomes well-lit because the light sensor determines that it is
night time if the surrounding area is cont inuously dark for several minutes such as
inside long tunnels, traffic jams inside tunnels, or in indoor parking lots.
If the headlight switch and the windshield wiper switch are in AUTO, and the
wipers are operated at low or high speed by the auto wiper control for several
seconds, bad weather conditions are determined and the headlights may be
turned on.
The sensitivity of the auto-light control may be changed.
Refer to the Settings section in the Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.

Windshield Wipers and
Washer
▼Windshield Wipers and Washer
The ignition must be switched ON to
use the wipers.
WARNING
Use only windshield washer
fluid or
plain water in the reservoir:
Using radiator antifreeze as washer
fluid is dangerous. If sprayed on the
windshield, it will dirty the windshield,
affect your visibility, and could result in
an accident.
Only use windshield washer fluid
mixed with anti-freeze protection in
freezing weather conditions:
Using windshield washer fluid without
anti-freeze protection in freezing
weather conditions is dangerous as it
could freeze on the windshield and
block your vision which could cause an
accident. In addition, make sure the
windshield is sufficiently warmed using
the defroster before spraying the
washer fluid.
CAUTION
 When the wipers are not used during
freezing temperatures or for a long
time, the wiper rubber may adhere
to the glass. If the wipers are
operated while adhered to the glass,
it could damage the wiper rubber
and motor.
 If the wipers are operated while the
glass is dry, th e glass could be
scratched and the wiper rubber
damaged. When the glass is dry,
spray washer fluid before operating
the wipers.

NOTE
Switching the auto-wiper lever from
the OFF to the AUTO position while
driving activates the windshield
wipers once, after which they
operate according to the rainfall
amount.
The auto-wiper control may not
operate when the rain sensor
temperature is about －10 °C (14 °F)
or lower, or about 85 °C (185 °F) or
higher.
If the windshield is coated with
water repellent, the rain sensor may
not be able to sense the amount of
rainfall correctly and the auto-wiper
control may not operate properly.
If dirt or foreign matter (such as ice
or matter containing salt water)
adheres to the windshield above the
rain sensor, or if the windshield is
iced, it could cause the wipers to
move automatically. However, if the
wipers cannot remove this ice, dirt or
foreign matter, the auto-wiper
control will stop operation. In this
case, set the wiper lever to the low
speed position or high speed
position for manual operation, or
remove the ice, dirt or foreign matter
by hand to restore the auto-wiper
operation.
If the auto-wiper lever is left in the
AUTO position, the wipers could
operate automatically 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.
If the headlight switch and the
windshield wiper switch are in
AUTO, and the wipers are operated
at low or high speed by the auto
wiper control for several seconds,
bad weather conditions are
determined and the headlights may
be turned on.
The auto-wiper control functions can
be turned off.
Refer to the Settings section in the
Mazda Connect Owner's Manual.
▼ Windshield Washer
Pull the wiper lever toward you to
spray washer fluid and operate the
windshield wipers several times. The
washer fluid is sprayed only while the
windshield wipers move out of their
stowed positions to the point where
they start reversing back.

1. OFF
2. Washer
NOTE
If the windshield washer is turned on
when the windshield
wipers are not
operating, the windshield wipers
operate a few times.
If you pull the wiper lever while the
windshield wipers are reversing back
to their stowed positions, the next
time the washer fluid is sprayed is
during the next cycle.
If the washer does not work, inspect
the fluid level (page 6-20). If the fluid
level is normal, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
