4–63When DrivingBrake     Brake  System       Foot Brake              Your  Mazda  has  power-assisted  brakes that adjust automatically 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 greater than usual.   WARNING    Do not coast with the engine stalled or turned o ,  nd a safe place to stop:  Coasting with the engine stalled or turned o  is dangerous. Braking will require more e ort, and the brake's power-assist could be depleted if you pump the brake. This will cause longer stopping distances or even an accident.    Shift to a lower gear when going down steep hills:  Driving with your foot continuously on the brake pedal or steadily applying the brakes for long distances is dangerous. This causes overheated brakes, resulting in longer stopping distances or even total brake failure. This could cause loss of vehicle control and a serious accident. Avoid continuous application of the brakes.   Dry  o   brakes that have become wet by driving slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal and lightly applying the brakes several times until the brake performance returns to normal:  Driving with wet brakes is dangerous. Increased stopping distance or the vehicle pulling to one side when braking could result in a serious accident. Light braking will indicate whether the brakes have been a ected.       CAUTION         Do not drive with your foot held on the clutch pedal or brake pedal, or hold the clutch pedal depressed halfway unnecessarily. Doing so could result in the following:         The clutch and brake parts will wear out more quickly.       The brakes can overheat and adversely a ect brake performance.           Always depress the brake pedal with the right foot. Applying the brakes with the unaccustomed left foot could slow your reaction time to an emergency situation resulting in insu  cient braking operation.          Wear shoes appropriate for driving in order to avoid your shoe contacting the brake pedal when depressing the accelerator pedal.

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.    When you hear this noise, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   64Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   64 2013/05/17   11:49:532013/05/17   11:49:53
4–65When DrivingBrake   WARNING    Do not drive with worn disc pads:  Driving with worn disc pads is dangerous. The brakes could fail and cause a serious accident. As soon as you hear a screeching noise consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.             Brake Assist            During  emergency  braking  situations when it is necessary to depress the brake pedal with greater force, the brake assist system provides braking assistance, thus enhancing braking performance.    When the brake pedal is depressed hard or depressed more quickly, the brakes apply more fi rmly.   NOTE•         When the brake pedal is depressed hard or depressed more quickly, the pedal will feel softer but the brakes will apply more fi rmly. This is a normal effect of the brake assist operation and does not indicate a malfunction.•         When the brake pedal is depressed hard or depressed more quickly, a motor/pump operation noise may be heard. This is a normal effect of the brake assist and does not indicate a malfunction.•         The brake assist equipment does not supersede the functionality of the vehicle's main braking system.

*Some models.4–66When DrivingBrake Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) *             The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision by operating the brake control (SCBS brake) when the system's laser sensor detects a vehicle ahead and determines that a collision with the vehicle ahead is unavoidable. It may also be possible to avoid a collision if the relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is less than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph).  In addition, when the driver depresses the brake pedal while the system is in the operation range at about 4 to 30 km/h (2 to 18 mph), the brakes are applied fi rmly and quickly to assist. (Brake Assist (SCBS brake assist))  When the system operates, the user is notifi ed by the fl ashing warning light and the Active Driving Display (ADD).  The indicator light turns on when the system has a malfunction.  Refer to Warning Lights on page  4-21 .   Laser sensor     WARNING    Do not rely on the Smart City Brake Support System (SCBS) as a substitute for safe driving:  The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), and driving on slippery roads such as wet, snowy, and icy roads (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.  Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   66Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   66 2013/05/17   11:49:542013/05/17   11:49:54
4–67When DrivingBrake  Do not rely completely on the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system:         The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is only designed to reduce damage in the event of a collision. Over reliance on the system leading to the accelerator pedal or brake pedal being mistakenly operated could result in an accident.       The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) is a system which operates in response to a vehicle ahead. The system may not be able to detect or react to 2-wheeled vehicles or pedestrians.       The laser sensor for the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is installed near the rearview mirror. To assure the correct operation of the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS), heed the following cautions.         Do not apply stickers to the surface of the windshield near the laser sensor (including transparent stickers). Otherwise, the laser sensor may not be able to detect vehicles or obstructions ahead which could result in an accident.       Do not disassemble the laser sensor.       If cracks or damage caused by  ying gravel or debris is visible near the laser sensor, stop using the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system immediately and have your vehicle inspected by an Authorized Mazda Dealer. If the vehicle continues to be driven with cracks or scratch marks left on the windshield near the laser sensor, the system may operate unnecessarily and cause an unexpected accident.    Refer to Stopping The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) System Operation on page  4-71 .       When replacing the windshield wipers or windshield, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.          Do not modify the suspension:  If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the system will not be able to correctly detect vehicles or obstructions ahead. This will result in the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system not operating normally or mistakenly operating, which could cause a serious accident.    Turn  o   the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) when the vehicle is running on a chassis roller or being towed:  Turn  o  the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system to prevent mistaken operation when the vehicle is running on a chassis roller or being towed.

4–68When DrivingBrake   CAUTION         When driving o -road in areas where there is grass or forage, it is recommended that the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system be turned o .       Always use tires for all wheels that are of the speci ed size, and the same manufacture, brand, and tread pattern. In addition, do not use tires with signi cantly di erent wear patterns on the same vehicle. Do not use tires with signi cantly di erent wear patterns on the same vehicle as the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system may not operate normally.       The laser sensor includes a function for detecting a soiled windshield and informing the driver, however, depending on the conditions, it may not detect plastic shopping bags, ice or snow on the windshield. In such cases, the system cannot accurately determine a vehicle or obstruction ahead and may not be able to operate normally. Always drive carefully and pay attention to the road ahead.        NOTE•         The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system will operate under the following conditions.   •         The engine is running.•         The display in the instrument cluster does not indicate that the system requires inspection or it cannot be used.•         The vehicle speed is between about 4 to 30 km/h (2 to 18 mph).•         The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is not turned off.•         The DSC operation is not turned off using the DSC OFF switch.•         The DSC is not malfunctioning.•         The driver is not deliberately performing driving operations (accelerator pedal, steering wheel, and braking operations).     •         The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) detects a vehicle ahead by emitting a near-infrared laser beam and receiving the beam refl ected off the refl ector of the vehicle ahead, and then using it for the measurement. Consequently, the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) may not operate under the following conditions:   •         Refl ection of the laser is poor due to the shape of the vehicle ahead.•         The vehicle ahead is signifi cantly dirty.•         Under bad weather condition, such as rain, fog and snow.•         The window washer is being used or the windshield wipers are not used when it's raining.•         The windshield is dirty.•         The steering wheel is turned completely left or right, or the vehicle is accelerated rapidly and comes close to the vehicle ahead.•         Trucks with low loading platforms, vehicles traveling at extremely low speeds, and vehicles with a high profi le.•         Vehicles with certain shapes such as a vehicle carrier.

4–71When DrivingBrake          Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) Warning Light (Red)    If the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) is operating, the indicator light fl ashes.              Deactivating The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) System Operation            The  Smart  City  Brake  Support  (SCBS) system can be deactivated.  Refer to Personalization Features on page  9-10 .  When the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system is turned off, the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) OFF indicator light turns on.       NOTE  When the DSC OFF switch is pressed to stop the DSC operation, the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system operation also stops and the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) OFF indicator light turns on.    Hill Launch Assist (HLA)            Hill  Launch  Assist  (HLA)  is  a  function which assists the driver in accelerating from a stop while on a slope. When the driver releases the brake pedal and depresses the accelerator pedal while on a slope, the function prevents the vehicle from rolling. The braking force is maintained automatically after the brake pedal is released on a steep grade.  For vehicles with a manual transaxle, Hill Launch Assist (HLA) operates on a downward slope when the shift lever is in the reverse (R) position, and on an upward slope when the shift lever is in a position other than the reverse (R) position.  For vehicles with an automatic transaxle, Hill Launch Assist (HLA) operates on a downward slope when the shift lever is in the reverse (R) position, and on an upward slope when the shift lever is in a forward gear.Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   71Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   71 2013/05/17   11:49:562013/05/17   11:49:56
4–72When DrivingBrake   WARNING    Do not rely completely on Hill Launch Assist (HLA):  Hill Launch Assist (HLA) is an auxiliary device for accelerating from a stop on a slope. The system only operates for about two seconds and therefore, relying only on the system, when accelerating from a stop is dangerous because the vehicle may move (roll) unexpectedly and cause an accident.  The vehicle could roll depending on the vehicle's load or if it is towing something. In addition, for vehicles with a manual transaxle, the vehicle could still roll depending on how the clutch pedal or the accelerator pedal is operated.  Always con rm the safety around the vehicle before starting to drive the vehicle.      NOTE•         Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate on a gentle slope. In addition, the gradient of the slope on which the system will operate changes depending on the vehicle's load.•         Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate if the parking brake is applied, the vehicle has not stopped completely, or the clutch pedal is released.•         While Hill Launch Assist (HLA) is operating, the brake pedal may feel stiff and vibrate, however, this does not indicate a malfunction.•         Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate while the TCS/DSC indicator light is illuminated.    Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page   4-20 .•         Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not turn off even if the DSC OFF switch is pressed to turn off the TCS/DSC.

4–73When DrivingABS/TCS/DSC     Antilock  Brake  System (ABS)            The  ABS  control  unit  continuously monitors the speed of each wheel. If one wheel is about to lock up, the ABS responds by automatically releasing and reapplying that wheel's brake.    The driver will feel a slight vibration in the brake pedal and may hear a chattering noise from the brake system. This is normal ABS system operation. Continue to depress the brake pedal without pumping the brakes.    The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction.  Refer to Warning Lights on page  4-21 .   WARNING    Do not rely on ABS as a substitute for safe driving:  The ABS cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), driving on ice and snow, and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.      NOTE•         Braking distances may be longer on loose surfaces (snow or gravel, for example) which usually have a hard foundation. A vehicle with a normal braking system may require less distance to stop under these conditions because the tires will build up a wedge of surface layer when the wheels skid.•         The sound of the ABS operating may be heard when starting the engine or immediately after starting the vehicle, however, it does not indicate a malfunction.     Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   73Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   73 2013/05/17   11:49:562013/05/17   11:49:56
4–74When DrivingABS/TCS/DSC Traction Control System (TCS)            The  Traction  Control  System  (TCS) enhances traction and safety by controlling engine torque and braking. When the TCS detects driving wheel slippage, it lowers engine torque and operates the brakes to prevent loss of traction.    This means that on a slick surface, the engine adjusts automatically to provide optimum power to the drive wheels, limiting wheel spin and loss of traction.    The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction.  Refer to Warning Lights on page  4-21 .   WARNING    Do not rely on the Traction Control System (TCS) as a substitute for safe driving:  The Traction Control System (TCS) cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.    Use snow tires or tire chains and drive at reduced speeds when roads are covered with ice and/or snow:  Driving without proper traction devices on snow and/or ice-covered roads is dangerous. The Traction Control System (TCS) alone cannot provide adequate traction and you could still have an accident.      NOTE  To turn off the TCS, press the DSC OFF switch (page  4-76 ).            TCS/DSC Indicator Light       This indicator light stays on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched ON. If the TCS or DSC is operating, the indicator light fl ashes.    If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or the brake assist system may have a malfunction and they may not operate correctly. Take your vehicle to an Authorized Mazda Dealer.   NOTE•         In addition to the indicator light fl ashing, a slight lugging sound will come from the engine. This indicates that the TCS/DSC is operating properly.•         On slippery surfaces, such as fresh snow, it will be impossible to achieve high rpm when the TCS is on.     Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   74Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   74 2013/05/17   11:49:572013/05/17   11:49:57
4–75When DrivingABS/TCS/DSC Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)            The  Dynamic  Stability  Control  (DSC) automatically controls braking and engine torque in conjunction with systems such as ABS and TCS to help control side slip when driving on slippery surfaces, or during sudden or evasive maneuvering, enhancing vehicle safety.    Refer  to  ABS  (page   4-73 )  and  TCS (page   4-74 ).    DSC operation is possible at speeds greater than 20 km/h (12 mph).    The warning light turns on when the system has a malfunction.  Refer to Warning Lights on page  4-21 .   WARNING    Do not rely on the Dynamic Stability Control as a substitute for safe driving:  The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) cannot compensate for unsafe and reckless driving, excessive speed, tailgating (following another vehicle too closely), and hydroplaning (reduced tire friction and road contact because of water on the road surface). You can still have an accident.      CAUTION         The DSC may not operate correctly unless the following are observed:         Use tires of the correct size speci ed for your Mazda on all four wheels.       Use tires of the same manufacturer, brand and tread pattern on all four wheels.       Do not mix worn tires.           The DSC may not operate correctly when tire chains are used or a temporary spare tire is installed because the tire diameter changes.              TCS/DSC Indicator Light       This indicator light stays on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched ON. If the TCS or DSC is operating, the indicator light fl ashes.    If the light stays on, the TCS, DSC or the brake assist system may have a malfunction and they may not operate correctly. Take your vehicle to an Authorized Mazda Dealer.Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   75Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   75 2013/05/17   11:49:572013/05/17   11:49:57
4–76When DrivingABS/TCS/DSC          DSC OFF Indicator Light       This indicator light stays on for a few seconds when the ignition is switched ON.  It also illuminates when the DSC OFF switch is pressed and TCS/DSC is switched off.Refer to DSC OFF Switch on page   4-76    If the light remains illuminated and the TCS/DSC is not switched off, take your vehicle to an Authorized Mazda Dealer. The DSC may have a malfunction.          DSC OFF Switch    Press the DSC OFF switch to turn off the TCS/DSC. The DSC OFF indicator light in the instrument cluster will illuminate.    Press the switch again to turn the TCS/DSC back on. The DSC OFF indicator light will turn off.   NOTE•         When DSC is on and you attempt to free the vehicle when it is stuck, or drive it out of freshly fallen snow, the TCS (part of the DSC system) will activate. Depressing the accelerator will not increase engine power and freeing the vehicle may be diffi cult. When this happens, turn off the TCS/DSC.•         If the TCS/DSC is off when the engine is turned off, it automatically activates when the ignition is switched ON.•         Leaving the TCS/DSC on will provide the best traction. •         If the DSC OFF switch is pressed and held for 10 seconds or more, the DSC OFF switch malfunction detection function operates and the DSC system activates automatically. The DSC OFF indicator light turns off while the DSC system is operative.     Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   76Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   76 2013/05/17   11:49:572013/05/17   11:49:57
*Some models. 4–77When Drivingi-ELOOP     i-ELOOP *               On  conventional  vehicles,  the  kinetic  energy  that  is  generated  when  the  vehicle  is decelerated by applying the brakes or during engine braking ends up being discarded as heat. By utilizing this discarded kinetic energy to generate electricity and use it to power the vehicle's electrical devices and accessories such as the A/C and audio, fuel consumption can be reduced. Mazda's system for generating electricity from this kinetic energy is called the Regenerative Braking System (i-ELOOP).

*Some models. 4–87When DrivingTire Pressure Monitoring System     Tire  Pressure  Monitoring  System *             The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air pressure of all four tires. If the air pressure of one or more tires is too low, the system warns the driver by indicating the tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the instrument cluster and operating a beep sound. The system monitors the tire pressures indirectly using the data sent from the ABS wheel speed sensors.  To allow the system to operate correctly, the system needs to be initialized with the specifi ed tire pressure (value on the tire pressure label). Follow the procedure and perform the initialization.  Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on page  4-90 .  The  warning  light  fl ashes when the system has a malfunction.

4–88When DrivingTire Pressure Monitoring System   CAUTION           Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and in ated to the in ation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire in ation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a di erent size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire in ation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire in ation pressure for those tires.)    As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is signi cantly under-in ated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and in ate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a signi cantly under-in ated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-in ation also reduces fuel e  ciency and tire tread life, and may a  ect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.    Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-in ation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.    Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly.     The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will  ash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.         To avoid false readings, the system samples for a little while before indicating a problem. As a result it will not instantaneously register a rapid tire de ation or blow out.

4–90When DrivingTire Pressure Monitoring System         Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization    In  the  following  cases,  system initialization must be performed so that the system operates normally.   •        A  tire  pressure  is  adjusted.•        Tire  rotation  is  performed.•        A  tire  or  wheel  is  replaced.•        The  battery  is  replaced  or  completely drained.•        The  tire  pressure  monitoring  system warning light is illuminated.         Initialization method      1.   Park the car in a safe place and fi rmly apply the parking brake.   2.   Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure of all four (4) tires to the specifi ed pressure indicated on the tire pressure label located on the door jamb of the driver's door (door open).    Refer to Tires on page  9-9 .   3.   Switch  the  ignition  ON.   4.   While the vehicle is parked, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring system set switch and verify that the tire pressure monitoring system warning light in the instrument cluster fl ashes twice and a beep sound is heard once.          CAUTION    If the system initialization is performed without adjusting the tire pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure and it may not illuminate the tire pressure monitoring system warning light even if a tire pressure is low, or it may illuminate the light even if the pressures are normal.  The system initialization will not be performed if the switch is pressed while the vehicle is being driven.

Antenna  Operating  Tips  for  Audio System             WARNING    Always adjust the audio while the vehicle is stopped:  Do not adjust the audio control switches while driving the vehicle. Adjusting the audio while driving the vehicle is dangerous as it could distract your attention from the vehicle operation which could lead to a serious accident.   Even if the audio control switches are equipped on the steering wheel, learn to use the switches without looking down at them so that you can keep your maximum attention on the road while driving the vehicle.      CAUTION    For the purposes of safe driving, adjust the audio volume to a level that allows you to hear sounds outside of the vehicle including car horns and particularly emergency vehicle sirens.      NOTE•         To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not leave the audio system on for a long period of time when the engine is not running.•         If a cellular phone or CB radio is used in or near the vehicle, it could cause noise to occur from the audio system, however, this does not indicate that the system has been damaged.

5–18Interior FeaturesAudio System  Do not spill any liquid on the audio system.    Do not insert any objects, other than CDs, into the slot.           Radio Reception    AM  characteristics    AM signals bend around such things as buildings or mountains and bounce off the ionosphere.  Therefore, they can reach longer distances than FM signals.  Because of this, two stations may sometimes be picked up on the same frequency at the same time. Station 2Station 1Ionosphere   FM  characteristics    An FM broadcast range is usually about 40—50 km (25—30 miles) from the source. Because of extra coding needed to break the sound into two channels, stereo FM has even less range than monaural (non-stereo) FM. FM Station40—50km (25—30 miles)   Signals from an FM transmitter are similar to beams of light because they do not bend around corners, but they do refl ect. Unlike AM signals, FM signals cannot travel beyond the horizon. Therefore, FM stations cannot be received at the great distances possible with AM reception. AM waveFM waveFM wave100—200 km (60—120 miles)Ionosphere   Atmospheric conditions can also affect FM reception. High humidity will cause poor reception. However, cloudy days may provide better reception than clear days.Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   18Mazda3_8CX9-EA-13F_Edition1.indb   18 2013/05/17   11:50:242013/05/17   11:50:24
5–19Interior FeaturesAudio System  Multipath  noise    Since FM signals can be refl ected by obstructions, it is possible to receive both the direct signal and the refl ected signal at the same time. This causes a slight delay in reception and may be heard as a broken sound or a distortion. This problem may also be encountered when in close proximity to the transmitter. Reflected waveDirect   Flutter/Skip  noise    Signals from an FM transmitter move in straight lines and become weak in valleys between tall buildings, mountains, and other obstacles. When a vehicle passes through such an area, the reception conditions may change suddenly, resulting in annoying noise.    Weak  signal  noise    In  suburban  areas,  broadcast  signals become weak because of distance from the transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas is characterized by sound breakup.    Strong  signal  noise    This occurs very close to a transmitter tower. The broadcast signals are extremely strong, so the result is noise and sound breakup at the radio receiver.    Station  drift  noise    When a vehicle reaches the area of two strong stations broadcasting at similar frequencies, the original station may be temporarily lost and the second station picked up. At this time there will be some noise from this disturbance.
