Lighting Control
qHeadlights
CAUTION
(With AUTO position)
ØDo not shade the light sensor by
adhering a sticker or a label on
the windshield. Otherwise the light
sensor will not operate correctly.
Light sensor
ØThe 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 switch is in the
ON position as fingers could be
pinched or the wipers and wiper
blades damaged when the wipers
activate automatically. If you are
going to clean the windshield, be
sure the wipers are turned off
completely - this is particularly
important when clearing ice and
snow - when it is particularly
tempting to leave the engine
running.NOTE
lIf the light switch is left on, the lights will
automatically switch off approximately 30
seconds after turning the ignition switch to
the ACC or LOCK position.
lTo prevent discharging the battery, do not
leave the lights on while the engine is off
unless safety requires them.
(With AUTO position)lThe headlights, other exterior lights
and dashboard illumination may not
turn off immediately even if the
surrounding area becomes well-lit
because the light sensor determines that
it is nighttime if the surrounding area is
continuously dark for several minutes
such as inside long tunnels, traffic jams
inside tunnels, or in indoor parking
lots.
In this case, the light turns off if the
light switch is turned to the OFF
position.
lThe timing for turning on the
headlights, other exterior lights and
dashboard illumination can be delayed
by adjusting the sensitivity of the light
sensor. Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer regarding sensor adjustment.
lThe sensitivity of the AUTO lights
may be changed by an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
lInstrument panel illumination can be
adjusted by rotating the knob in the
instrument cluster. Also, day/night
mode can be changed by pressing the
knob.
To adjust the brightness of the
dashboard illumination:
Refer to Dashboard Illumination on
page 5-41.
