Mazda 2015 5 Owner's Manual page 187

NOTE
The headlights, other exterior lights and dashboard illumination may not turn off immediately
l
even if the surrounding area becomes well-lit because the light sensor determines that it is
nighttime if the surrounding area is continuously dark for several minutes such as inside long
tunnels, traffic jams inside tunnels, or in indoor parking lots.
In this case, the light turns off if the light switch is turned to the OFF position.
The dashboard illumination can be adjusted by rotating the knob in the instrument cluster. Also,
l
the day/night mode can be changed by pressing the knob. To adjust the brightness of the
dashboard illumination: Refer to Dashboard Illumination on page 5-43.
When the headlight switch is in the AUTO position and the ignition is switched to ACC or the
l
ignition is switched off, the headlights, other exterior lights and dashboard illumination will turn
off.
The sensitivity of the AUTO lights may be changed by an Authorized Mazda Dealer. Refer to
l
Personalization Features on page 10-8.
Xenon fusion headlight bulbs
The low-beam bulbs of the headlights have xenon fusion bulbs that produce a bright white
beam over a wide area.
WARNING
Do not replace the xenon fusion bulbs yourself
Replacing the xenon fusion bulbs yourself is dangerous. Because the xenon fusion
bulbs require high voltage, you could receive an electric shock if the bulbs are
handled incorrectly. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer when the replacement is
necessary.
NOTE
If the headlights flicker, or the brightness weakens, the bulb-life may be depleted and a replacement is
necessary. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
