How to Use the Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
Enabling Operation of the DSC
Drive the vehicle at a speed of about 20 km/h (13 mph) or faster.
The DSC is operable.
When the DSC operates, the TCS/DSC operation indicator light 
flashes.
Stopping Operation of the Traction Control System (TCS)/DSC
The TCS/DSC operation is canceled and the DSC OFF indicator light 
in the instrument cluster turns on.
Press the DSC OFF switch again to enable the TCS/DSC operation.
-
If the engine is stopped while the TCS/DSC operation is canceled, the TCS/DSC becomes operational when the engine is started the next time.
-
When the TCS/DSC is on and you attempt to free the vehicle from being stuck, the TCS/DSC will activate. Depressing the accelerator will not increase engine power and freeing the vehicle from being stuck might be difficult. When this happens, turn off the TCS/DSC.
-
If the TCS/DSC is canceled and the following systems are operated, the TCS/DSC becomes operational.
-
Smart Brake Support (SBS)
-
Mazda Radar Cruise Control (MRCC)
-
Cruising & Traffic Support (CTS)

-
If the DSC OFF switch is pressed and held for 10 seconds or longer, the TCS/DSC operation can no longer be turned off even if the DSC OFF switch is pressed. In this case, the DSC OFF switch will operate normally when the vehicle power is switched ON again after being switched OFF.
