Power Steering



 Power steering is only operable when 

the engine is running. If the engine is 

off or if the power steering system is 

inoperable, you can still steer, but it 

requires more physical effort.

  If the steering feels stiffer than usual 

during normal driving or the steering 

vibrates, consult an Authorized Mazda 

Dealer.



 The warning light notifies the driver 

of system abnormalities and operation 

conditions.

  Refer to Warning Lights on page 

4-16.

CAUTION

Never hold the steering wheel to the 

extreme left or right for more than 5 

seconds with the engine running. This 

could damage the power steering 

system.
