2. Turn off the engine and inspect the 

engine oil level (page 8-9). If it’s low,

service station or to an Authorized Mazda 
Dealer.

Check Engine Light

If this light comes on while driving, the 
vehicle may have a problem. It is 
important to note the driving conditions 
when the light came on and consult an 
Authorized Mazda Dealer.

The check engine light may come on in 
the following cases:

•

The fuel tank level being very low or 
approaching empty.

•

The engine’s electrical system has a 
problem.

•

The emission control system has a 
problem.

•

The fuel-filler cap is missing or not 
tightened securely.

If the check engine light flashes 
continuously, decrease your speed and 
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer as 
soon as possible.

â–¼

ABS Warning Light

The warning light stays on for a few 
seconds when the ignition switch is turned 
to the ON position.

If the ABS warning light stays on while 
you’re driving, the ABS control unit has 
detected a system malfunction. If this 
occurs, your brakes will function 
normally as if the vehicle had no ABS.
Should this happen, consult an Authorized 
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.

Don’t run the engine if oil pressure is 
low. It could result in extensive engine 
damage.

CAUTION

ABS Warning Light and Brake 
Warning Light on at the Same Time:
Driving when the brake system 
warning light and ABS warning light 
are on at the same time is dangerous.
When both lights are on, the rear 
wheels could lock more quickly in an 
emergency stop than under normal 
circumstances.
Don’t drive with both lights on, and 
contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer 
to have the brakes inspected as soon 
as possible.
