M Hybrid
How to Use the M Hybrid
M Hybrid automatically switches
between engine assist by the
Integrated Starter-Generator (ISG) and
charging by regenerative braking
according to the driving conditions of
the vehicle.
The M Hybrid power generating status
is displayed on the system operation
status display of the fuel economy
monitor.
Refer to the Mazda Connect Owner's
Manual or consult an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
NOTE
Drive the vehicle for about 30 minutes
once every 2 to 3 months because
self-discharge occurs gradually if the
vehicle is not driven for a long period
of time. If the M Hybrid Battery
discharges completely and the M
Hybrid system cannot be activated,
contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Replacement and Disposal of M
Hybrid Battery
Technical knowledge and skill are
necessary in handling the M Hybrid
Battery. The M Hybrid Battery is
collected and recycled to prevent
accidents involving it. When scrapping
your vehicle, replacing the M Hybrid
Battery, or disposing of the M Hybrid
Battery, consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer. Please cooperate in ensuring
that the vehicle's M Hybrid Battery is
collected and recycled.
M Hybrid Malfunction
If the vehicle receives an impact of a
certain level or greater in a collision,
the M Hybrid system stops. In this
case, the charging system warning light
turns on and the M Hybrid system may
not activate. Park the vehicle in a safe
5-20
place immediately and contact an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
