Type A/Type B
The power steering malfunction indicator
light/warning indication illuminates or
flashes if there is a malfunct ion with the
power steering while the engine is
running.
If the indicator light/warning indication
illuminates or flashes, park the vehicle in
a safe place immediately and stop the
engine.
If the indicator light/warning indication
does not turn off even if the engine is
restarted afterwards, consult an expert
repairer, we recommend an Authorised
Mazda Repairer.
NOTE
l
If the indicator light/warning
indication illuminates or flashes, the
power steering will not operate
normally. If this happens, the
steering wheel can still be operated,
however, the operation may feel
heavy compared to normal, and the
steering wheel could vibrate when
turning.
l
Repeatedly jerking the steering
wheel left and right while the vehicle
is stopped or moving extremely
slowly will cause the powe r steering
system to go into protective mode
which will make the steer ing feel
heavy, but this does not indicate a
problem. If this occurs, park the
vehicle safely and wait several
minutes for the system to return to
normal.
