Xenon fusion headlight bulbs

í

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.

qLights-On Reminder

If lights are on and the key is removed
from the ignition switch, a continuous
beep sound will be heard when the
driver's door is opened.

NOTE

When the advanced keyless function is used
and the start knob is in the ACC position, the
“Start Knob Not in LOCK Warning Beep”
(page 3-16) overrides the lights-on reminder.
