When Driving

ABS/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  4-82 .

  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

y

  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.

y

  If the TCS/DSC is off when the engine 

is turned off, it automatically activates 
when the ignition is switched ON.

y

  Leaving the TCS/DSC on will provide 

the best traction. 

y

  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.
