Mazda CX-8 - Emergency Stop Signal System


Turn off the AUTOHOLD before
switching OFF the ignition so that the
parking brake is not applied
automatically.
Emergency Stop Signal
System
If you apply the brakes suddenly while
driving at a speed of about 55 km/h (34
mph) or faster, the emergency stop signal
system automatically and rapidly flashes
all the direction indicator lights to caution
drivers behind your vehicle of the sudden
braking situation.
NOTE

Flashing
When you bring your vehicle to a
complete stop while all the direction
indicator lights are flashing rapidly, the
rapid flashing of all the direction
indicator lights changes back to the
normal flashing pattern. When the
hazard warning light switch is pressed,
all of the direction indicator lights turn
off.

Operation

When the ABS operates, the
emergency stop signal system is more
likely to operate. Therefore, if the
brake pedal is depressed on a slippery
road, all of the direction indicator
lights may flash.

The emergency stop signal system
does not operate when the hazard
warning light switch is pressed.
