Washing
CAUTION
 


¾ When the wiper lever is in the AUTO
position and the ignition is switched ON,
the wipers may move automatically in
the following cases:
 


¾ If the windshield above the rain
sensor is touched or wiped with a
cloth.
 


¾ If the windshield is struck with a hand
or other object from either outside or
inside the vehicle.
  Keep hands and scrapers clear of the
windshield when the wiper lever is in
the AUTO position and the ignition
is switched ON as fi ngers could be
pinched or the wipers and wiper blades
damaged when the wipers activate
automatically.
  If you are going to clean the windshield,
be sure the wipers are turned off
completely (when it is most likely
that the engine is left running) this is
particularly important when clearing ice
and snow.
 


¾ Do not spray water in the engine
compartment. Otherwise, it could result
in engine-starting problems or damage
to electrical parts.
To help protect the fi nish from rust
and deterioration, wash your Mazda
thoroughly and frequently, at least once a
month, with lukewarm or cold water.
If the vehicle is washed improperly, the
paint surface could be scratched. Here are
some examples of how scratching could
occur. Scratches occur on the paint surface when:
 


y The vehicle is washed without fi rst
rinsing off dirt and other foreign matter.
 


y The vehicle is washed with a rough, dry,
or dirty cloth.
 


y The vehicle is washed at a car wash that
uses brushes that are dirty or too stiff.
 


y Cleansers or wax containing abrasives
are used.
NOTE
 


y Mazda is not responsible for scratches
caused by automatic car washes or
improper washing.
 


y Scratches are more noticeable on
vehicles with darker paint fi nishes.
To minimize scratches on the vehicle's
paint fi nish:




y Rinse off any dirt or other foreign matter
using lukewarm or cold water before
washing.
 


y Use plenty of lukewarm or cold water
and a soft cloth when washing the
vehicle. Do not use a nylon cloth.
 


y Rub gently when washing or drying the
vehicle.
 


y Take your vehicle only to a car wash
that keeps its brushes well maintained.
 


y Do not use abrasive cleansers or wax
that contain abrasives.
CAUTION
Do not use steel wool, abrasive
cleaners, or strong detergents
containing highly alkaline or caustic
agents on chrome-plated or anodized
aluminum parts. This may damage the
protective coating; also, cleaners and
detergents may discolor or deteriorate
the paint.

Signal Warning Action to be taken
Seat Belt
Warning
Light
With warning light for front passenger's seat
The seat belt warning light illuminates if the driver or front passenger's seat is occupied and the
seat belt is not fastened with the ignition switched ON.
Without warning light for front passenger's seat
The seat belt warning light illuminates if the driver's seat is occupied and the seat belt is not
fastened with the ignition switched ON.
Seat belt reminder
NOTE
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer to deactivate or restore the belt reminder. Though the belt
reminder can be deactivated, doing so will defeat the purpose of the system to warn the driver and
the front passenger in the event that their seat belts are not fastened. For the safety of the driver
and front passenger, Mazda recommends not deactivating the belt reminder.
Front seat
If the vehicle is driven with the driver or front passenger's seat belt unfastened, the seat belt
warning light illuminates and a warning beep sounds.
NOTE
Some models do not have the seat belt reminder function for the front passenger's seat.
If the driver or front passenger's seat belt is unfastened (only when the front passenger seat is
occupied) and the vehicle is driven at a speed faster than about 20 km/h (12 mph), the warning light
will fl ash and a beep sound will be heard. After a short time, the warning light stops fl ashing, but
remains illuminated, and the beep sound stops.
Until a seat belt is fastened or a given period of time has elapsed, the beep sound will not stop even
if the vehicle speed falls below 20 km/h (12 mph).
NOTE
yThe warning light fl ashes and a beep sound will be heard for about 6 seconds if the driver's seat
belt is not fastened when the ignition is switched ON.
y If a driver or front passenger's seat belt is unfastened after the beep sound turns off (warning light
remains illuminated), and the vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12 mph), the warning light fl ashes
and beep sound activates again.
yPlacing heavy items on the front passenger seat may cause the front passenger seat belt warning
function to operate depending on the weight of the item.
yTo allow the front passenger seat weight sensor to function properly, do not place and sit on
an additional seat cushion on the front passenger seat. The sensor may not function properly
because the additional seat cushion could cause sensor interference.
y When a small child sits on the front passenger seat, it is possible that the warning light will not
operate.

The light turns on if the windshield and the radar
sensor are dirty or there is a malfunction in the
system. Verify the reason why the warning light is
illuminated on the audio display (page 7-24 ).
If the reason why the warning light is
illuminated is due to a dirty windshield, clean
the windshield.
If the warning light is illuminated because of a
dirty radar sensor, clean the front emblem.
For any other reasons, have the vehicle
inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
KEY Warning Light
Take the appropriate action and verify that the warning light turns off.
Signal Cause Action to be taken
(Red)
(Flashing) The advanced key battery is dead. Replace the battery (page 6-39 ).
The advanced key is not within the
operation range.
Bring the advanced key into the operation
range (page 3-7 ). The advanced key is placed in areas inside
the cabin where it is diffi cult for the key to
be detected.
A key from another manufacturer similar to
the advanced key is in the operation range. Take the key from another manufacturer
similar to the advanced key out of the
operation range.
Without the ignition switched off, the
advanced key is taken out of the cabin, and
then all the door are closed. Bring the advanced key back into the
cabin.

If Trouble Arises
Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
Seat Belt Warning Beep
If the driver's seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition is switched ON, a beep
sound will be heard for about 6 seconds. If
the driver or the front passenger's seat belt
is not fastened and the vehicle is driven
at a speed faster than about 20 km/h (12
mph), a beep sound will be heard again for
a specifi ed period of time.
NOTE




y Some models do not have the seat
belt warning function for the front
passenger's seat.
 


y Placing heavy items on the front
passenger seat may cause the front
passenger seat belt warning function to
operate depending on the weight of the
item.
 


y To allow the front passenger seat
weight sensor to function properly, do
not place and sit on an additional seat
cushion on the front passenger seat.
The sensor may not function properly
because the additional seat cushion
could cause sensor interference.
 


y When a small child sits on the front
passenger seat, it is possible that the
warning beep will not operate.
Ignition 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 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.
Key Removed from Vehicle
Warning Beep
A beep sound will be heard 6 times and
the KEY warning light (red) will fl ash
continuously if the ignition has not been
switched off, all the doors are closed, and
the key is removed from the vehicle. This
is to notify the driver that the key has been
removed from the vehicle and the ignition
has not been switched off.
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.
Request Switch Inoperable
Warning Beep (With the advanced
keyless function)
If the request switch is pressed with a door
open or ajar or the ignition has not been
switched off while the key is being carried,
a beep will be heard for about 2 seconds
to indicate that the doors and the liftgate/
trunk lid cannot be locked.
Key Left-in-luggage Compartment
Warning Beep (With the advanced
keyless function)
If the key is left in the trunk with all doors
locked and the trunk lid closed, a beep
sound is heard for about 10 seconds to
remind the driver the key has been left in
the trunk. If this happens, open the trunk
lid by pressing the electric trunk lid opener
and remove the key. A key removed from
the trunk may not function because its
functions may have been temporarily
suspended. To restore the key function,
perform the applicable procedure (page
3-8 ).
