Light

This warning has the following functions:

Parking brake warning/Warning light inspection

The light illuminates when the parking brake is applied with the ignition switched to 

START or ON. It turns off when the parking brake is fully released.

Low brake fluid level warning

If the brake warning light remains illuminated even though the parking brake is 

released, the brake fluid may be low or there could be a problem with the brake system. 

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

WARNING

Do not drive with the brake system warning light illuminated. Contact an 

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.

CAUTION

In addition, the effectiveness of the braking may diminish so you may need to 

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