NOTE
If something such as the driver's foot
contacts the accelerator pedal with the
engine running and the EPB applied, the
parking brake may be released
automatically. If you do not intend to drive
immediately, shift the change lever
(manual transaxle) to the neutral position,
or shift the selector lever (automatic
transaxle) to the P or N position.
▼Warning Light
The warning light turns on when the
system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Indication/Warning
Lights on page 4-42.
▼Brake Pad Wear Indicator
When the disc brake pads become worn,
the built-in wear indicators contact the
disc plates. This causes a screeching noise
to warn that the pads should be replaced.
When you hear this noise, consult an
expert repairer, we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Re
pairer as soon as
possible.

Driving with worn disc pads is dangerous.

accident. As soon as you hear a screeching

▼ Brake Assist
During emergency braking situations
when it is necessary to depress the brake
pedal with greater force, the brake assist
system provides braking assistance, thus
enhancing braking performance.

When the brake pedal is depressed hard or
depressed more quickly, the brakes apply
more firmly.
NOTE
•When the brake pedal is depressed hard
or depressed more quickly, the pedal
will feel softer but
the brakes will apply
more firmly. This is a normal effect of
the brake assist operation and does not
indicate a malfunction.
•When the brake pedal is depressed hard
or depressed more quickly, a motor/
pump operation noise may be heard.
This is a normal effect of the brake
assist and does not indicate a
malfunction.
•The brake assist equipment does not
supersede the functionality of the
vehicle's main braking system.
