Tilt switch Slide switch
WARNING
Do not let passengers stand up or
extend part of the body through the
open moonroof while the vehicle is
moving:
Extending the head, arms, or other
parts of the body through the
moonroof is dangerous. The head or
arms could hit something while the
vehicle is moving. This could cause
serious injury or death.
Make sure the opening is clear before
closing the moonroof:
A closing moonroof 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.
NOTE
After washing your Mazda or after it rains,
wipe the water off the moonroof before
operating it to avoid water penetration which
could cause rust and water damage to your
headliner.

40 seconds after the ignition switch is
turned from the ON position to the ACC
or LOCK position with all doors closed. If
any door is opened, the moonroof will be
inoperable.
qOpening/Closing the Moonroof
from Outside
The moonroof can be opened or closed
from outside the vehicle after the doors
and the liftgate are closed.
WARNING
Make sure the opening is clear before
closing the moonroof:
Closing the moonroof is dangerous. A
person's hands, head, or even neck
could be caught by the moonroof and
result in serious injury or even death.

children and pets.

from outside the vehicle under the following
condition:
lA door or the liftgate is opened.lThe key is inserted into the ignition switch.l(With advanced key)

switch.
Opening
Because nobody likes getting into a very
hot car, Mazda has introduced a way to
open the two front windows and the
moonroof as you approach the vehicle to
get the air moving before you get in.
WARNING
Use the auto-moonroof function only
when you can see the vehicle and it is
in a secure area:
Do not let children play with your
keys. If they open the moonroof
without your knowing, the open
moonroof is an even bigger invitation
to a thief than leaving the doors
unlocked.
The moonroof can be opened for
ventilating the cabin before getting in the
vehicle.
With unlock button (Keyless entry
system)
Press the unlock button twice within 1.5
seconds and then hold the button pressed.

moonroof just before it reaches the
fully closed position:
Blocking the moonroof just before it
reaches the closed position is
dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function
cannot prevent the moonroof from
stopping. If fingers are caught,
serious injuries could occur.
