Black plate (124,1) Ignition Switch q Ignition Switch Positions LOCK The steering wheel locks to protect against theft . Only in this position can the key be removed. Manual transaxle T o turn the key from the ACC to the LOCK position, push the button when the key is at the ACC position, then turn the key to the LOCK position .
Black plate (125,1) WARNING Remove the key only when the vehicle is parked: Removing the key from the ignition switch while the vehicle is movin g is dangerous. Removing the key allows the steering wheel to lock. You will lose steering contr ol and a serious accident could occ ur.
Black plate (126,1) Starting the Engine NOTE Engine-starting is controlled by the spark ignition system. This system meets all Canadian Interference- Causing Equipment Standar d r equir ements r egulating the impulse electrical field strength of radio noise.
Black plate (127,1) Brake System q Foot Brake Y our Mazda has power-assisted brakes that adjust automati cally through normal use. Should power-assist fail, you can stop by applying greater force than normal to the brake pedal. But the distance required to stop will be great er than usual.
Black plate (128,1) q Parking Brake WARNING Before leaving the drive r's seat, always put the key to LOCK position, set the parking bra ke and make sure the shift lever is in P with an automatic .
Black plate (129,1) q Brake System W arning Light This warning has the following functions: Parking brake warning The light illu minates when the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch in the ST AR T or ON position. It turns off when the parking brake is fully released.
Black plate (130,1) WARNING Do not rely on ABS as a substitute for safe driving: The ABS canno t compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (followi ng another vehicle too clos ely), driving on ice and snow, and hy droplaning (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road sur face).
Black plate (131,1) WARNING Do not drive with both the ABS warn ing light and brake warning light illuminated. Have the vehicle towed to an Authorized Mazda Dealer to have the brakes inspected as soon as possible: Driving when the brake system warning ligh t and ABS warning light are illuminated simulta neously is dangerous.
Black plate (132,1) (6-speed transaxle) V ehicl es with 6-speed transaxle are equipped with a device to prevent shifting to R (reverse) by mis take. Push the shift lever downwar d and shift to R.
Black plate (133,1) Downshifting When you must slow down in heavy traffic or on a steep upg rade , downshift before the engine star ts to overwork. This reduces the c hance of stalling and gives better acceleration when you need more speed. On a steep downgrade , downshiftin g helps maintain safe speed and prolongs brake life.
Black plate (134,1) Automatic T ransaxle Controls Indicates that you must depress the brake pedal to shift (The ignition switch must be in the ON position).
Black plate (135,1) q T ransaxle Ranges The shift lever must be in P or N to operate the star ter . P (Park) P locks the transaxle and prevents the front wheels from rotating.
Black plate (136,1) q Shift-Lock System The shift-lock system prevents shifting out of P unless the brake pedal is depressed. T o shift from P: 1. Depress and hold the brake pedal. 2. Start the engine. 3. Move the shift lever . NOTE l When the ignition switch is in the ACC or LOCK position, the shift lever cannot be shifted fr om P .
Black plate (137,1) NOTE l If you change to manual shift mode when the vehicle is stopped, the gear will shift to M1. l If you shift up once when the vehicle is stopped and the gear is at M1, the gear will shift to M2. M2 is helpful for starting on slippery surfaces.
Black plate (138,1) NOTE l When driving slowly , the gears may not shift up depending on vehicle speed. l In manual shift mode, gears do not shift up automatically .
Black plate (139,1) The gear is fixed in second while in this mode for easier starting and driving on slippery roads. If the shift lever is tapped back ( ) or forward ( ) while in the second gear fixed mode, the mode will be canceled. Shifting specificat ion (2.
Black plate (140,1) If the vehicle is kicked down at the following speeds or lower , the gears shift down automatically: Gear V ehicle speed M5 → M4 182 km/h (1 13 mph) M4 → M3 133 km/h (82 mph) M3 → M2 48 km/h (30 mph) Recommendations for shifting Upshifting For normal acceler ation and cruising, we recommend these shift points.
Black plate (141,1) Power Steering Power steering is only operable when the engine is running. If the engine is off or if the power steering system is inoperable, you can still steer, but it requires more physical effort. If the steering feels stiffer than usual during normal driving, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer .
