When Driving
ABS/TCS/DSC
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.
Refer to DSC OFF Switch on page 4-89 .
If the light remains illuminated and
the TCS/DSC is not switched off, take
your vehicle to an expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer. The DSC may have a
malfunction.
DSC OFF Switch
Press the DSC OFF switch to turn off the
TCS/DSC. The DSC OFF indicator light
in the instrument cluster will illuminate.
Press the switch again to turn the TCS/
DSC back on. The DSC OFF indicator
light will turn off.
NOTE
 
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 dif¿ cult.
When this happens, turn off the TCS/
DSC.
 
If the TCS/DSC is off when the
engine is turned off, it automatically
activates when the ignition is
switched ON.
 
Leaving the TCS/DSC on will
provide the best traction.
 
If the DSC OFF switch is pressed
and held for 10 seconds or more,
the DSC OFF switch malfunction
detection function operates and the
DSC system activates automatically.
The DSC OFF indicator light
turns off while the DSC system is
operative.
 
(Vehicles with Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS))

If the Smart City Brake Support
(SCBS) operates with the TCS/DSC
turned off, the TCS/DSC becomes
operational automatically.
