Driving Your Mazda
Starting and Driving
NOTE
When TCS is on and you attempt to free the
l
vehicle when it is stuck, or drive it out of
freshly fallen snow, the TCS will activate.
Depressing the accelerator will not
increase engine power and freeing the
vehicle may be difficult. When this happens,
turn off the TCS.
If the TCS is off when the engine is turned
l
off, it automatically activates when the
ignition switch is turned on.
Leaving the TCS on will provide the best
l
traction.
