button start is switched off. The system does
not operate if the push button start is
switched to any position other than off.
lIf the key does not operate when pressing a

battery with a new one if the KEY indicator
light (green) flashes in the instrument
cluster. Replacing the battery about once a
year is recommended because the KEY
warning light/indicator light may not
illuminate or flash depending on the rate of
battery depletion.
lAdditional keys can be obtained at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer. Up to 6 keys can
be used with the keyless functions per
vehicle. Bring all keys to an Authorized
Mazda Dealer when additional keys are
