R Position

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2006 Mazda MPV, 2005 Mazda MPV, 2004 Mazda MPV, 2004 Mazda 6, and 2003 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

While in the R position, the accumulator switch valve switches the line pressure passage, and low and reverse brake operation pressure instead of high clutch operation pressure is applied to the high clutch accumulator. As a result, when locking the low and reverse brakes, the operation pressure (line pressure) gradually pressurizes and decreases the select shock.
