Headlights

Turn the headlight switch to turn the headlights, other exterior lights and dashboard

illumination on or off.

When the lights are turned on, the lights-on indicator light in the instrument cluster turns on.

NOTE

^ꢀyꢀIf the light switch is left on, the lights will automatically switch off approximately 30

seconds after switching the ignition off.

^ꢀThe time setting can be changed.

^ꢀRefer to Personalization Features on page 9-12.

When Driving

Switches and Controls

Auto-light control

When the headlight switch is in the

position and the ignition is switched ON, the light

sensor senses the surrounding lightness or darkness and automatically turns the headlights,

other exterior lights and dashboard illumination on or off (see chart above).

CAUTION

ꢀ¾ꢀ

Do not shade the light sensor by adhering a sticker or a label on the windshield. Otherwise

the light sensor will not operate correctly.

ꢀ

ꢀ¾ꢀ

The light sensor also works as a rain sensor for the auto-wiper control. Keep hands and

position and the

scrapers clear of the windshield when the wiper lever is in the

ignition is switched ON as ꢀngers could be pinched or the wipers and wiper blades could be

damaged when the wipers activate automatically. If you are going to clean the windshield,

be sure the wipers are turned oꢁ completely when it is particularly tempting to leave the

engine running. This is particularly important when clearing ice and snow.

NOTE

^ꢀyꢀThe headlights, other exterior lights and dashboard illumination may not turn off

immediately even if the surrounding area becomes well-lit because the light sensor

determines that it is night time if the surrounding area is continuously dark for several

minutes such as inside long tunnels, trafﬁc jams inside tunnels, or in indoor parking lots.

^ꢀIn this case, the lights turn off if the light switch is turned to the

position.

^ꢀyꢀ(Without auto headlight off function)

^ꢀWhen the headlight switch is in the position and the ignition is switched to ACC or

the ignition is switched off, the headlights, other exterior lights and dashboard

illumination will turn off.

^ꢀyꢀThe dashboard illumination can be adjusted by rotating the knob in the instrument cluster.

Also, the day/night mode can be changed by rotating the knob until a beep sound is heard.

To adjust the brightness of the dashboard illumination:

^ꢀRefer to Dashboard Illumination on page 4-15.

^ꢀyꢀThe sensitivity of the AUTO lights may be changed by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

^ꢀRefer to Personalization Features on page 9-12.

When Driving

Switches and Controls

Xenon fusion headlight bulbs^*

The low-beam bulbs of the headlights have xenon fusion bulbs that produce a bright white

beam over a wide area.

WARNING

Do not replace the xenon fusion bulbs yourself:

Replacing the xenon fusion bulbs yourself is dangerous, because the xenon fusion

bulbs require high voltage. You could receive an electric shock if the bulbs are handled

incorrectly. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer when replacement is necessary.

NOTE

If the headlights ﬂicker or the brightness weakens, the bulb-life may be depleted and a

replacement is necessary. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

When Driving

Switches and Controls

High Beam Control System (HBC)^*

The High Beam Control System (HBC) determines the conditions in front of the vehicle

using the Forward Sensing Camera (FSC) while driving in darkness to automatically switch

the headlights between high and low beams.

Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on page 4-20.

While driving the vehicle at a speed of about 30 km/h (18 mph), the headlights are switched

to high beams when there are no vehicles ahead or approaching in the opposite direction.

The system switches the headlights to low beams when one of the following occurs:

ꢀyꢀ

The system detects a vehicle or the headlights/lights of a vehicle approaching in the

opposite direction.

ꢀyꢀ

The vehicle is driven on roads lined with streetlamps or on roads in well-lit cities and

towns.

ꢀyꢀ

The vehicle is driven at less than about 20 km/h (12 mph).

The recognition distance of the

Forward Sensing Camera (FSC)

varies according to the

surrounding conditions.

with anti-freeze protection in freezing

weather conditions:

After releasing the turn signal lever, the

turn signal indicator ﬂashes three times.

The operation can be cancelled by moving

the lever in the direction opposite to which

it was operated.

Using windshield washer ꢃuid without

anti-freeze protection in freezing

weather conditions is dangerous as

it could freeze on the windshield and

block your vision which could cause

an accident. In addition, make sure

the windshield is suꢂciently warmed

using the defroster before spraying the

washer ꢃuid.

NOTE

The three-ﬂash turn signal function can be

switched to operable/inoperable using the

personalization function.

WARNING

Do not use the HomeLink system with

any garage door opener that lacks the

safety stop and reverse feature:

Using the HomeLink system with any

garage door opener that lacks the

safety stop and reverse feature as

required by federal safety standards

is dangerous. (This includes garage

doors manufactured before April 1,

1982.)

NOTE

It is recommended that a new battery be

placed in the hand-held transmitter of the

device being programmed to HomeLink

for quicker training and accurate

transmission of the radio-frequency signal.

ꢀyꢀ

Verify that there is a remote control

transmitter available for the device you

would like to program.

ꢀyꢀ

Disconnect the power to the device.

Using these garage door openers can

increase the risk of serious injury or

death. For further information, contact

HomeLink at 1-800-355-3515 or www.

homelink.com or an Authorized Mazda

Dealer.

Programming the HomeLink

System

CAUTION

Always check the areas surrounding

garage doors and gates for people

or obstructions before programming

or during operation of the HomeLink

system:

When programming a garage door

opener or a gate, disconnect the power

to these devices before performing

programming. Continuous operation

of the devices could damage the

motor.

Programming or operating the

HomeLink system without verifying

the safety of areas surrounding garage

doors and gates is dangerous and

could result in an unexpected accident

and serious injury if someone were to

be hit.

The HomeLink system provides 3 buttons

which can be individually selected and

programmed using the transmitters for

current, on-market devices as follows:

1. Disconnect power to the device being

programmed.

NOTE

2. Position the end of your hand-held

transmitter 2.5—7.5 cm (1—3 inches)

away from the HomeLink button you

wish to program while keeping the

indicator light in view.

The programming will not be erased even

if the battery is disconnected.

Programming

Reprogramming the HomeLink

system

Canadian radio-frequency laws require

transmitter signals to “time-out” (or quit)

after several seconds of transmission

— which may not be long enough for

HomeLink to pick up the signal during

programming. Similar to this Canadian

law, some U.S. gate operators are designed

to “time-out” in the same manner.

To program a device to HomeLink using

a HomeLink button previously trained,

follow these steps:

1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink

button. DO NOT release the button.

2. The indicator light will begin to ﬂash

after 20 seconds. Without releasing

the HomeLink button, proceed with

“Programming” - step 1.

If you live in Canada or you are having

difﬁculties programming a gate operator

by using the “Programming” procedures

(regardless of where you live), replace

“Programming HomeLink” step 3 with

the following:

Erasing Programmed HomeLink

NOTE

If programming a garage door opener or

gate operator, it is advised to unplug the

device during the “cycling” process to

prevent possible overheating.

HomeLink indicator light begins to ﬂash

after approximately 10 seconds.

Verify that the programming has been

erased when you resell the vehicle.

Continue to press and hold the HomeLink

button while you press and release

— every two seconds (“cycle”) your

hand-held transmitter until the frequency

signal has successfully been accepted by

HomeLink. (The indicator light will ﬂash

slowly and then rapidly.)

Proceed with “Programming” step 4 to

complete.

Operating the HomeLink System

Press the programmed HomeLink button

to operate a programmed device. The

code will continue being transmitted for a

maximum of 20 seconds.
