WARNING
Do not leave the key in your vehicle
with children and keep them in a place
where your children will not fi nd or
play with them:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the
key is dangerous. This could result in
someone being badly injured or even
killed. Children may fi nd these keys
to be an interesting toy to play with
and could cause the power windows or
other controls to operate, or even make
the vehicle move.
CAUTION
  Because the key (transmitter) uses
low-intensity radio waves, it may
not function correctly under the
following conditions:
 


 The key is carried with
communication devices such as
cellular phones.
 


 The key contacts or is covered by a
metal object.
 


 The key is near electronic devices
such as personal computers.
 


 Non-Mazda genuine electronic
equipment is installed in the
vehicle.
 


 There is equipment which
discharges radio waves near the
vehicle.
CAUTION

 The key (transmitter) may consume
battery power excessively if it
receives high-intensity radio waves.
Do not place the key near electronic
devices such as televisions or
personal computers.
  To avoid damage to the key
(transmitter), DO NOT:
 


 Drop the key.



 Get the key wet.



 Disassemble the key.



 Expose the key to high
temperatures on places such as the
instrument panel or bonnet, under
direct sunlight.
 


 Expose the key to any kind of
magnetic fi eld.




 Place heavy objects on the key.



 Put the key in an ultrasonic
cleaner.
 


 Put any magnetized objects close
to the key.
A code number is stamped on the plate
attached to the key set; detach this plate
and store it in a safe place (not in the
vehicle) for use if you need to make a
replacement key (auxiliary key).
Also write down the code number and
keep it in a separate safe and convenient
place, but not in the vehicle.
If your key (auxiliary key) is lost, consult
your Authorised Mazda Repairer and have
your code number ready.

Before Driving
Security System
NOTE
  The keys carry a unique electronic
code. For this reason, and to assure
your safety, obtaining a replacement
key requires some waiting time.
They are only available through an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
  Always keep a spare key in case one
is lost. If a key is lost, consult an
Authorised Mazda Repairer as soon
as possible.
  If you lose a key, an Authorised
Mazda Repairer will reset the
electronic codes of your remaining
keys and immobilizer system.
Bring all the remaining keys to an
Authorised Mazda Repairer to reset.
 Starting the vehicle with a key that
has not been reset is not possible.
Operation
NOTE
  The engine may not start and security
indicator light may illuminate or
fl ash if the key is placed in an area
where it is diffi cult for the system
to detect the signal, such as on the
instrument panel or in the glove
compartment. Move the key to a
location within the signal range,
switch the ignition off, and then
restart the engine.
  Signals from a TV or radio station,
or from a transceiver or mobile
telephone could interfere with your
immobilizer system. If you are using
the proper key and the engine fails
to start, check the security indicator
light.
Arming
The system is armed when the ignition is
switched from ON to off.
The security indicator light in the
instrument cluster fl ashes every 2 seconds
until the system is disarmed.
Disarming
The system is disarmed when the
ignition is switched ON with the correct
programmed key. The security indicator
light illuminates for about 3 seconds and
then turns off. If the engine does not start
with the correct key, and the security
indicator light remains illuminated or
fl ashing, try the following:
Make sure the key is within the
operational range for signal transmission.
Switch the ignition off, and then restart
the engine. If the engine does not start
after 3 or more tries, contact an Authorised
Mazda Repairer.
NOTE
  If the security indicator light fl ashes
continuously while you are driving,
do not shut off the engine. Go to an
Authorised Mazda Repairer and have
it checked. If the engine is shut off
while the indicator light is fl ashing,
you will not be able to restart it.
  Because the electronic codes are
reset when the immobilizer system
is repaired, the keys are needed.
Make sure to bring all the keys to an
Authorised Mazda Repairer so that
they can be programmed.

Audio System
NOTE
  To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the audio
system on for a long period of time
when the engine is not running.
  If a cellular phone or CB radio is
used in or near the vehicle, it could
cause noise to occur from the audio
system, however, this does not
indicate that the system has been
damaged.
Do not spill any liquid on the audio
system.
Do not insert any objects, other than CDs,
into the slot.
Radio Reception
AM characteristics
AM signals bend around such things as
buildings or mountains and bounce off the
ionosphere.
Therefore, they can reach longer distances
than FM signals.
Because of this, two stations may
sometimes be picked up on the same
frequency at the same time.
Station 2 Station 1Ionosphere
FM characteristics
An FM broadcast range is usually about
40—50 km (25—30 miles) from the
source. Because of extra coding needed to
break the sound into two channels, stereo
FM has even less range than monaural
(non-stereo) FM.
