Driving Your Mazda
Starting and Driving
▼ ABS Warning Light
The warning light stays on for a few
seconds when the ignition switch is turned
to the ON position.
If the ABS warning light stays on while
you’re driving, the ABS control unit has
detected a system malfunction. If this
occurs, your brakes will function
normally as if the vehicle had no ABS.
Should this happen, consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
NOTE
W hen the engine is jump-started to
charge the battery, uneven rpm occurs
and the ABS warning light comes on.
This is due to a weak battery, not a
malfunction.
Recharge the battery.
▼ Brake Pad Wear Indicator
When the disc brake pads become worn,
the built-in wear indicators contact the
disc plates. This causes a screeching noise
to warn that the pads should be replaced.
W hen you hear this noise, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
& WARNING
Driving with Worn Disc Pads:
Driving with worn disc pads is
dangerous. The brakes could fa il and
cause a serious accident. A s soon as
you hear a screeching noise consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
