In some situations you may want to
prevent the trunk from being opened with
the remote trunk lid release button.

seatbacks (page 2-7), push the left side of
the trunk-lock switch, and close the trunk. To cancel the security feature, insert the
primary key into the lock, turn the key
clockwise to open the trunk, and push the
right side of the trunk-lock switch.

discharged, do not leave the trunk open
for a long period when the engine is
not running.

To remove the filler cap, turn it
counterclockwise.
To replace the filler cap, turn it clockwise

Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
Fuel Spray:Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can
burn skin and eyes and cause illness
when ingested. Fuel spray is released
when there is pressure in the fuel
tank and the fuel cap is removed too
quickly. When removing the fuel cap,
loosen the cap slightly and wait for
any hissing to stop. Then remove it.
Fuel Vapor:
Fuel vapor is dangerous. It could be
ignited by sparks or flames causing
serious burns and injuries. Before
refueling, stop the engine, and always
keep sparks and flames away from the
filler neck.
Always use only a genuine Mazda fuel
cap or an approved equivalent,
available at Authorized Mazda
Dealers. The wrong cap can result in a
serious malfunction of the fuel and
emission control systems. It may also
cause the check engine light in the
instrument cluster to illuminate.

The sunroof can be opened or closed
electrically only when the ignition switch
is in the ON position.
Make sure the fuel-filler cap is
tightened securely. The check engine
light comes on when the cap isn
’t
tightened securely. If the light remains
on (even after you have tightened the
cap securely, driven, and restarted the
engine several times), it may indicate a
different problem. Contact an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
CAUTIONSunroof
Extending the Head or Arms Through the Sunroof:Extending the head, arms, or other
parts of the body through the sunroof
is dangerous. The head or arms could
hit something while the vehicle is
moving. This could cause death or
serious injury. Don ’t let passengers
stand up or extend anything through
the open sunroof while the vehicle is
moving.
Closing the Sunroof:
A closing sunroof is dangerous. The
hands, head, or even neck of a person
— especially a child — could be
caught in it as it closes, causing
serious injury or even death. Make
sure the opening is clear before
closing the sunroof.
