Why does my e-brake light come on at sharp corners?

Whenever I take a corner minutely hard, my "brake" light on my idiot cluster will come on. It usually stays on until I either hit the brakes or after a little time. Why? is it just a short in the cluster?

I wasn't aware that the light indicated my brake fluid level. I thought it was only for my emergency brake.

Well now you know. BTW, it's in the owners manual.

Didn't read his post very clearly did you...

I've never seen an online owners manual, but I know Mazda sells high-quality bound photocopies. I got one off an auction website.
