Turning the Engine Off

WARNING

Do not stop the engine while the vehicle is moving:

Stopping the engine while the vehicle is moving for any reason other than in an emergency is dangerous. Stopping the engine while the vehicle is moving will result in reduced braking ability due to the loss of power braking, which could cause an accident and serious injury.

1.Stop the vehicle completely.

2.(Manual transmission) Shift into neutral. (Automatic transmission)

Shift the shift lever to the P position.

3.Switch the ignition from ON to OFF.

CAUTION

When leaving the vehicle, make sure the ignition is switched off.

NOTE

The cooling fan in the engine compartment could turn on for a few minutes after the ignition is switched from ON to OFF, whether or not the A/C is on or off, to cool the engine compartment quickly.

Brake System

qFoot Brake

Your Mazda has power-assisted brakes that adjust automatically through normal use.

Should power-assist fail, you can stop by applying greater force than normal to the brake pedal. But the distance required to stop will be greater than usual.
