BREAK-IN PERIOD
No special break-in is necessary, but a few
precautions in the first 600 miles should
be observed. • Do not race the engine.
• Do not maintain one constant speed, either
slow or fast, for a long period of time.
• Avoid full-throttle starts.
• Avoid unnecessary hard stops.
• Do not drive constantly at full-throttle or high
engine rpm for extended periods of time.
Emergency Engine Stop
Pushing and holding the START/STOP ENGINE
button or repeatedly pushing the button while
the engine is running will turn the engine OFF.
Use only in case of an emergency.
Emergency Vehicle Entry
If the key cannot be used due to a malfunction
or dead key battery, use the auxiliary key to
lock or unlock the doors.
Emergency Engine Start
If the engine cannot be started due to a dead
key batter y:
1 Push the brake pedal (A / T) or the clutch
pedal (M/T).
2 While the indicator light
flashes GREEN , touch the
START/STOP ENGINE button
using the back side of the
transmitter (as shown).
3 After the GREEN indicator
light illuminates constantly,
push the START/STOP
ENGINE button with your
finger to start the engine.

Tires
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
For your safety, the CX-3 is equipped with TPMS that detects low tire
pressure in one or more tires. If the tire pressure starts getting low in
one or more tires, the system alerts the driver by turning on a light in the
instrument cluster (pp. 35-38) and sounding an alarm.
What to do? Don’t ignore the TPMS warning light. Stop and check your
tire pressure (when tires are cold) and inflate them to the proper pressure.
Properly inflated tires are safer, last longer, and increase fuel economy.
In the following cases, the TPMS must be “initialized” so the system can
operate normally.
• The tire pressure is adjusted (up or down) in one or more tires.
• A tire rotation is performed.
• Any tire or wheel is replaced.
• The vehicle’s battery is disconnected, replaced or completely dead.
Initialization Process
(TPMS Warning Light
is Illuminated)
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.
2 Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure to the specified
pressure (See tire label located on the driver’s side door jam area) on
all four (4) tires.
3 Switch the ignition ON, but leave the vehicle parked.
4 Push and hold the TPMS “Set Switch”
(left side of dash) until the TPMS warning
light
in the instrument cluster flashes
twice and a beep sound is heard once.
CAUTION: If the TPMS “Set Switch” is pushed without adjusting the tire
pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure. The TPMS
warning light may not turn on, even if the tire pressure is low, or it may turn on
if the tire pressure is normal.
NOTE: Drastic changes in temperature or altitude may cause the TPMS warning
light to turn on.

NOTE: • If the vehicle is jump started, leave the jumper cables connected until the
warning message is no longer displayed.
• If the vehicle is driven while the warning screen is displayed, a warning sound
will be heard and power steering assist will be limited.
i-ELOOP
i-ELOOP (if equipped)
The Mazda-unique regenerative braking system (i-ELOOP) generates
and stores electrical energy in a capacitor during deceleration. Through
efficient energy regeneration, storage, and usage, fuel economy is
improved. To view i-ELOOP information, select Applications from
the Home screen, then scroll down to Fuel Economy Monitor.
i-ELOOP Pre-Charge Mode
If the capacitor is discharged because of vehicle storage (the vehicle \
is
parked for long periods of time), the i-ELOOP indicator in the instrume\
nt
cluster will flash and a
warning screen appears
on the screen of the
infotainment system.
When this warning screen appears, do not drive the
vehicle. Allow the engine to idle until the warning
screen disappears. This time is needed for normal
generator operation.

DRIVE SELECTION (if equipped)
By selecting Sport mode, greater vehicle
response is achieved through automatic
adjustments in transmission shift control
and engine throttle control. This provides
additional quick acceleration which may be
needed to safely make maneuvers such as
lane changes, merging onto freeways, or
passing other vehicles.
Push the SPORT button to switch to SPORT
mode and the SPORT mode indicator light in the
instrument cluster turns on. Push again to turn off.
Transmission
MANUAL SHIFT MODE (if equipped)
Manual Shift Mode gives you the feel of driving a manual transmission by
allowing you to manually shift to control engine rpm and torque when more
control is desired.
To Use Manual Shift Mode:
• Shift the lever from D to M.
To Shift Up
To A Higher Gear:
• Pull the steering UP
switch (+) once or
tap the shift lever
back (+) once.
To Shift Down
To A Lower Gear:
• Pull the steering DOWN
switch (-) once or
tap the shift lever
forward (-) once.
(if equipped)
NOTE:
• If the SET button of the cruise control is pushed while in SPORT mode, SPORT
mode is switched off. SPORT mode cannot be turned on or off when cornering.
• When the ignition is switched off, SPORT mode is also switched off.
• Fuel consumption increases slightly when using SPORT mode.
NOTE: Steering Shift
Switches can be used in
“D” or “M”.
