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.

 


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 place immediately and contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
