system. Park the vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact an Authorized Mazda 

Dealer.

Authorized Mazda Dealer to have the brakes inspected as soon as possible:

Driving with the brake system warning light illuminated is dangerous. It indicates 

that your brakes may not work at all or that they could completely fail at any 

time. If this light remains illuminated, after checking that the parking brake is fully 

released, have the brakes inspected immediately.

depress the brake pedal more strongly than normal to stop the vehicle.
