TOWING mode can be selected only when electrically connected to the trailer using a Mazda genuine trailer hitch. In addition, it may take some time until the connection is detected and TOWING mode is displayed. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer for details.
Depending on driving conditions when selecting TOWING mode/SPORT mode/OFF-ROAD mode, the vehicle may perform shift-down or accelerate slightly.
When SPORT mode/OFF-ROAD mode is selected, driving the vehicle at higher engine speeds increases and fuel economy may worsen. Canceling SPORT mode/OFF-ROAD mode during normal driving is recommended.
When setting the Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC) while driving in SPORT mode, the mode is switched to NORMAL mode. In addition, while the MRCC is being used, the mode cannot be switched to SPORT mode.
The drive mode cannot be switched in the following cases.
The Antilock Brake System (ABS) is operating.
The Traction Control System (TCS) is operating.
The Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) is operating.
The steering wheel is being operated abruptly.
The driving mode in which the display in the instrument cluster is grayed out cannot be selected.
When the vehicle power is switched OFF, the mode returns to NORMAL mode. However, TOWING mode before switching the vehicle power OFF is maintained only when the trailer is connected in TOWING mode.
