How to Use the Mazda Kickdown Switch?
1 Answers
Mazda's kickdown switch is triggered by pressing the accelerator pedal beyond its normal limit to engage Kickdown. Here are some key points about the kickdown switch:1. Risks: Firstly, fuel consumption spikes instantly. Secondly, it causes significant wear and tear on the engine and transmission. However, for regular family cars, if not used daily in this manner, the risks are negligible.2. Working Principle: When this switch is activated, the engine throttle opens fully, rapidly increasing the RPM to the redline zone. The transmission automatically shifts down to the lowest possible gear allowed by the current speed, enabling the car to operate at maximum output power for the strongest acceleration and maximum driving force.
