qIgnition Not Switched Off
(STOP) Warning Beep
If the driver's door is opened while the
ignition is switched to ACC, a continuous
beep sound will be heard and the KEY
warning light (red) flashes to notify the
driver that the ignition has not been
switched off (STOP). Left in this
condition, the keyless entry system will
not operate, the car cannot be locked, and
the battery power will be depleted.
qKey Removed from Vehicle
Warning Beep
Under the following conditions, a beep
sound will be heard and the KEY warning
light (red) will flash continuously when
the ignition has not been switched off to
notify the driver that the key has been
removed. The KEY warning light (red)
will stop flashing when the key is back
inside the vehicle:
The ignition has not been switched off
and all the doors are closed after
removing the key from the vehicle. (A
beep sound will be heard 6 times.)
NOTE
Because the key utilizes low-intensity radio
waves, the Key Removed From Vehicle
Warning may activate if the key is carried
together with a metal object or it is placed in a
poor signal reception area.
qRequest Switch Inoperable
Warning Beep (With the
advanced keyless function)
If the request switch is pressed under the
following conditions while the key is
being carried, a beep will be heard for
about 2 seconds to indicate that the front
doors and the liftgate can not be locked.
lA door or the liftgate is open (door ajar
included).
lThe ignition has not been switched to
off.
qKey Left-in-luggage Compartment
Warning Beep (With the advanced
keyless function)
If the key is left in the luggage
compartment with all doors locked and
the liftgate closed, a beep sound is heard
for about 10 seconds to remind the driver
the key has been left in the luggage
compartment. If this happens, open the
liftgate by pressing the electric liftgate
opener and remove the key. A key
removed from the luggage compartment
may not function because its functions
may have been temporarily suspended. To
restore the key function, perform the
applicable procedure (page 3-7).

Add-On Non-Genuine Parts and Accessories
Non-genuine parts and accessories for Mazda vehicles can be found in stores.
These may fit your vehicle, but they are not approved by Mazda for use with Mazda
vehicles. When you install non-genuine parts or accessories, they could affect your
vehicle's performance or safety systems; the Mazda warranty doesn't cover this. Before you
install any non-genuine parts or accessories, consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
WARNING
Always consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer before you install non-genuine parts or
accessories:
Installation of non-genuine parts or accessories is dangerous. Improperly designed
parts or accessories could seriously affect your vehicle's performance or safety
systems. This could cause you to have an accident or increase your chances of
injuries in an accident.
Be very careful in choosing and installing add-on electrical equipment, such as
mobile telephones, two-way radios, stereo systems, and car alarm systems:
Incorrectly choosing or installing improper add-on equipment or choosing an
improper installer is dangerous. Essential systems could be damaged, causing engine
stalling, air-bag (SRS) activation, ABS/TCS/DSC inactivation, or a fire in the vehicle.
Mazda assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from the
installation of add-on non-genuine parts or accessories.

Cell Phones Warning
WARNING
Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication
equipment in vehicles in your country:
Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehicle
navigation or other devices by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous.
Dialing a number on a cell phone while driving also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of
these devices will cause the driver to be distracted and could lead to a serious
accident. If a passenger is unable to use the device, pull off the right-of-way to a safe
area before use. If use of a cell phone is necessary despite this warning, use a hands-
free system to at least leave the hands free to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell
phone or other electrical devices while the vehicle is moving and, instead,
concentrate on the full-time job of driving.

qBlind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System
Radiation Hazard
This BSM (blind spot monitoring) device emits intentional electromagnetic radiation in the
24 GHz to 25 GHz frequency range. The total radiated average power over the entire
bandwidth is below_
14 dBm (40 µW). The active emitting antenna surface is 72 cm
2;
therefore the radiated power density in front of the BSM device is 0.55 µW/cm2. This
value is far below the legal human exposure protection limit of 1 mW/cm2(MPE) in
Europe and US.
