Auto-light control
When the power switch is switched ON, the light sensor detects the brightness of
the surrounding area and the headlights and the exterior lights turn on/off
automatically according to the surrounding brightness. When the power switch is
switched OFF, the headlights an d the exterior lights turn off automatically.
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. If the wiper
lever is in the AUTO position with the power switch switched ON, the wipers may
operate automatically. Be careful not to pinch your hand or fingers. Otherwise, it
could cause injury or damage to the windshield wipers. When cleaning the
windshield (especially when removing snow or ice with the power switch switched
ON (EV system on)), make sure that the wiper switch is turned o ff. If the wipers
are operated, it could cause a problem wi th the windshield wiper or damage the
wiper blade.
NOTE
The headlights and other exte rior 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, traffi c jams inside tunnels, or in indoor parking lots.
The sensitivity of the auto-light control may be changed.

Windshield Wipers and
Washer
▼Windshield Wipers and Washer
The windshield wipers and washer can
be used when the power switch is
switched ON.
WARNING
Use only windshield washer
fluid or
plain water in the reservoir:
Using radiator antifreeze as washer
fl uid is dangerous. If sprayed on the
windshield, it will dirty the windshield,
a ff ect 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 su fficiently 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.
When Driving
Switches and Controls

MX -30_8JD4-EA -21G_Edition2_new 2021-5-18 14:38:07

If the wipers are operated while the
glass is dry, the glass could be
scratched and the wiper rubber
damaged. When the glass is dry,
spray washer fluid before operating
the wipers.
 If the amount of washer fluid spray is
insuffi cient, do not use the washer
switch. If the washer switch
continues to be operated with no
washer fluid being sprayed, it could
lead to pump damage.
NOTE
If the windshield wipers are operated
under cold weather conditions or
during snowfall, they could stop due to
accumulated snow on the windshield.
If the windshield wipers stop due to
accumulated snow on the windshield,
park the vehicle in a safe place, turn
the wiper switch o ff, and then remove
the accumulated snow. If the wiper
switch is turned to another position

an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon
as possible.

The sensitivity of the rain sensor can be
adjusted by turning the switch on the
wiper lever.
From the center position (normal),
rotate the switch upward (+ direction)
for higher sensitivity (faster response)
or rotate it downward (- direction) for
less sensitivity (slower response).

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,

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 6-13). If the fluid
level is normal, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
