Headlight auto-leveling malfunction
indicator light

This indicator light stays on for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched
ON.
Thereafter, the indicator light will
illuminate when the headlight auto-
leveling system has a malfunction.

If the indicator light illuminates, contact
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

q

Daytime Running Lights (Canada)

In Canada, vehicles must be driven with
the headlights on during daytime
operation.

For that reason, the daytime running lights
automatically turn on when the ignition is
switched ON.

NOTE

The Daytime Running Lights turn off when the
parking brake is applied.
