Replacing the battery
The transmitter is powered by one coin type three-volt lithium battery
CR2032 or equivalent. Typical operating range will allow you to be up to
10 meters (33 feet) away from your vehicle. A decrease in operating
range can be caused by:
²weather conditions
²nearby radio towers
²structures around the vehicle
²other vehicles parked next to the vehicle
To replace the battery:
1. Twist a thin coin between the
two halves of the transmitter
near the key ring.
DO NOT TAKE THE FRONT
PART OF THE TRANSMITTER
APART. Damage to the
transmitter may result in
operation failure.
2.
Place the positive (+) side of
new battery in the same
orientation. Refer to the diagram
inside the transmitter unit.
3. Snap the two halves back
together.
Replacing lost transmitters
If a remote transmitter has been lost
and you would like to remove it
from the vehicle's memory, or you
would like to purchase additional
remote transmitters and have them
programmed to your vehicle:
²Takeallyour vehicle's
transmitters to your dealer for
programming, or
²Perform the programming
procedure yourself

Programming remote transmitters
It is necessary to haveall(maximum of four Ð original and/or new) of
your remote transmitters available prior to beginning this procedure.
NOTE:This procedure must be completed within the specified times. If
not completed within the specified time period, reprograming procedures
must be restarted from the beginning.
To program the transmitters yourself:
²Place the key in the ignition and
turn from 2 (LOCK) to 3 (OFF)
and cycle between 3 (OFF) and
4(ON) eight times in rapid
succession (within 10 seconds)
with the eighth turn ending in the
4 (ON) position. The doors will
lock/unlock to confirm that
programming mode has been
entered.
²Within 20 seconds, program a
remote transmitter by pressing any button on a transmitter. The doors
will lock/unlock to confirm that the remote transmitter has been
programmed. (If more than 20 seconds pass before pressing a remote
transmitter button, the programming mode will exit and the procedure
will have to be repeated.)
²Repeat the previous step to program additional remote transmitters.
The doors will lock/unlock to confirm that each remote transmitter has
been programmed.
²When you have completed programming the remote transmitters, turn
the ignition to 3 (OFF). Again the doors will lock/unlock to confirm
programming has been completed.

compatible with aftermarket
remote start systems. Use of
these systems may result in
vehicle starting problems and a
loss of security protection.
NOTE:Large metallic objects,
electronic devices on the key chain
that can be used to purchase
gasoline or similar items, or a
second key on the same key ring as
thecoded keymay cause vehicle
starting issues.
NOTE:If present, you need to keep
these objects from touching thecoded keywhile starting the engine.
NOTE:These objects and devices cannot damage thecoded key,but
can cause a momentary issue if they are too close to the key during
engine start.
NOTE:If a problem occurs, turn ignition OFF and restart the engine
with all other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key.
Check to make sure the encoded ignition key is an approved Mazda

If your keys are lost or stolen you
will need to do the following:
²Use your spare key to start the
vehicle. or
²Have your vehicle towed to an
authorized Mazda dealership. .
The key codes will need to be
erased from your vehicle and new key codes will need to be re-coded.
Replacingcoded keycan be very costly and you may want to store an
extra programmed key away from the vehicle in a safe place to prevent
an unforeseen inconvenience.
WARNING: If an unprogrammed key is used in the ignition it
will cause a ªNO STARTº condition.
Programming spare keys
A maximum of eight keys can be coded to your vehicle. Only
SecuriLockykeys can be used. To program acoded keyyourself, you
will need two previously programmedcoded keys(keys that already
operate your vehicle's engine) and the new unprogrammed key(s) readily
accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure.
If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
bring your vehicle to your dealership to have the spare coded key(s)
programmed.
NOTE:Please read and understand the entire procedure before you
begin.
NOTE:This procedure must be completed within the specified times. If
not completed within the specified time period, the reprogramming
procedure must be restarted from the beginning.

1. Insert the first previously
programmedcoded keyinto
the ignition and turn the
ignition from 3 (OFF) to 4 (ON)
(maintain ignition in 4 (ON) for
at least one second).
2. Turn ignition to 3 (OFF) then 2
(LOCK) and remove the first
coded keyfrom the ignition.
3. Within ten seconds of removing
the firstcoded key,insert the second previously programmedcoded
keyinto the ignition and turn the ignition from 3 (OFF) to 4 (ON)
(maintain ignition in 4 (ON) for at least one second but no more
than ten seconds).
4. Turn the ignition to 3 (OFF) then 2 (LOCK) and remove the second
coded keyfrom the ignition.
5. Within 20 seconds of removing the secondcoded key,insert the
new unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition and
turn the ignition from 3 (OFF) to 4 (ON) (maintain ignition in 4
(ON) for at least one second). This step will program your new key
to a coded key.
6. To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat this
procedure from step 1.
If successful, the new coded key(s) will start the vehicle's engine and the
theft indicator will illuminate for three seconds and then go out.
If not successful, the new coded key(s) will not start the vehicle's engine
and the theft indicator will flash on and off and you may repeat steps 1
