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-window 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 window
without your knowing, the open
windows are an even bigger
invitation to a thief than leaving the
doors unlocked.
The windows can be opened for
ventilating the cabin before getting in the
vehicle.
With unlock button (Keyless entry
system)
Press once, then press again within 1.5
seconds and hold.
After the doors and the liftgate are
unlocked, the two front windows and the
moonroof open while the unlock button is
pressed.
To stop the windows and the moonroof
while opening, release the button.
If the operation is performed from the
beginning again, the windows and the
moonroof open. Advanced key
