Brake System Warning Light

This warning has the following functions:

Parking brake warning

The light illuminates when the parking
brake is applied with the ignition switch
in the START or ON position. It turns off
when the parking brake is fully released.

Low brake fluid level warning

If the light stays on after the parking brake
is fully released, you may have a brake
problem.

Drive to the side of the road and park off
the right-of-way.

You may notice that the pedal is harder to
depress or that it may go closer to the
floor. In either case, it will take longer to
stop the vehicle.

1. With the engine stopped, open the

hood and check the brake fluid level
immediately, and then add fluid if
required (page 8-24).

2. After adding fluid, check the light

again.

If the warning light remains on, or if the
brakes do not operate properly, do not
drive the vehicle. Have it towed to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Even if the light turns off have your brake
system inspected as soon as possible by
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
