Steering is possible, but requires more physical effort. Repeatedly jerking the steering wheel left and right while the vehicle is stopped or moving extremely slowly will cause the power steering system to go into protective mode which will make the steering feel heavy, but this does not indicate a malfunction. If this occurs, park the vehicle safely and wait a few minutes for the system to return to normal. qTurn-Signal/Hazard Warning Indicator Lights When operating the turn signal lights, the left or right turn signal indicator light flashes to indicate which turn signal light is operating (page 5-60). When operating the hazard warning lights, both turn signal indicator lights flash (page 5-67). NOTE If an indicator light remains illuminated (does not flash) or if it flashes abnormally, one of the turn signal bulbs may be burned out. qHeadlight Auto-Leveling Malfunction Indicator Light í This indicator light stays on far a few seconds when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position. Thereafter, the indicator light will illuminate when the headlight autoleveling system has a malfunction. If the indicator light illuminates, contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer. í Some models. 5-55 Form No.8AT5-EA-09E
