function Indication *
The message is displayed if the electric power steering has a malfunction.
If the message is displayed, stop the vehicle in a safe place and do not operate the

while. Contact an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer if
the message is displayed continuously.

case, the steering wheel can still be operated, however, the operation may feel
heavy compared to normal, or the steering wheel could vibrate when turning.
