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 (page 5-26).

If the light stays on when the TCS/DSC is
not switched off, take your vehicle to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer. The dynamic
stability control may have a malfunction.

NOTE

If the battery is disconnected or a fuse is
replaced, the DSC will be inoperable. In this
case, the DSC OFF indicator light flashes and
the TCS/DSC indicator light illuminates.
To make the DSC operable, do the following
procedure with the battery connected.

1. Switch the ignition ON.

2. Turn the steering clockwise fully, then turn

it counterclockwise fully.

3. Make sure the DSC OFF indicator and the

TCS/DSC indicator turn off.

If the TCS/DSC indicator light and the DSC
OFF indicator light remain illuminated even
after switching the ignition from ON to OFF,
and back to ON, attempt the procedure again.
If this still does not resolve the issue, consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

DSC OFF Switch

Press the DSC OFF switch to turn off the
TCS/DSC. The DSC OFF indicator light
will illuminate.

Press the switch again to turn the TCS/
DSC back on. The DSC OFF indicator
light will go out.

NOTE

l

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 difficult.
When this happens, turn off the TCS/DSC.

l

If the TCS/DSC is off when the engine is
turned off, it automatically activates when
the ignition is switched ON.

l

Leaving the TCS/DSC on will provide the
best stability.
