N O T E
If the power liftgate switch/power liftgate
close switch/power liftgate button on
the transmitter is pressed or the electric
liftgate opener is operated while the
liftgate is opening/closing electrically, the
beep sound is heard and the liftgate stops.
Then, it reverses when any of the switches
(buttons) are pressed again.

Changing the power liftgate fully open
position
The power liftgate fully-open position can
be changed according to the height of a
garage.
When changing the position
1. Stop the liftgate at the desired position.
2. Press the power liftgate close switch
for about three seconds.
A beep sound is activated two times to
indicate that the position change has
been completed.

NOTE
Set the desired fully-open position of the
liftgate at the position where it is open
more than halfway. The position where it
is less than halfway open cannot be set.

T o r e s e t
1. Open the liftgate.
2. Press the power liftgate close switch
for about seven seconds.
A beep sound is activated three times
to indicated that the reset has been
completed.

Jam-safe equipment
While the power liftgate is opening/
closing electrically and the system detects
a person or an object in the liftgate's
path, the liftgate will move in the reverse
direction automatically and stops.
WARNING
Always check the area around the
power liftgate before opening/closing it:
Not checking for occupants and
objects around the power liftgate
before opening/closing it is dangerous.
The jam-safe equipment is designed
to prevent jamming in the event an
obstruction is in the liftgate's path. The
system may not detect certain objects
obstructing the liftgate depending
on the way they are positioned and
their shape. However, if the jam-safe
function detects an obstruction and
moves the liftgate in the reverse
direction, an occupant in the liftgate's
path could be seriously injured.

Towing
Trailer Towing Tips
 




y Verify that your Mazda maintains a near-normal attitude when a loaded or unloaded trailer
is connected. Do not drive if it has an abnormal front-up or front-down position. Inspect
for incorrect tongue load, worn suspension parts, and trailer overloading.
 


y Make sure the trailer is properly loaded and the cargo is secure to prevent it from shifting.



y Make sure the mirrors conform to all government regulations. If they do not, install
required rear view mirrors appropriate for towing purposes.

The three main causes of vehicle-trailer accidents are driver error, excessive speed, and
improper trailer loading.
Before driving
 




y Have your cooling and braking system checked by an Authorized Mazda Dealer.



y Before starting out, inspect the operation of all vehicle and trailer lights and all vehicle-
to-trailer connections. Stop and re-inspect all lights and connections after driving a short
distance.

Driving
 




y Your Mazda will handle differently with a trailer in tow, so practice turning, backing, and
stopping in a traf¿ c-free area.




y Take time to get accustomed to the extra weight and length.



y Allow more room between your vehicle and the one in front because braking distance
increases with a trailer. For each 16 km/h (10 mph) of speed, allow at least one vehicle
and trailer length between your Mazda and the vehicle ahead.
 


y Avoid jerky starts or sudden acceleration.



y Avoid sudden braking. It may cause loss of control and result in jackkni¿ ng, especially so
on wet or slippery roads.
 


y Shift the shift lever to the D position when towing a trailer in hilly terrain or when heavily
loaded.

The D position will allow operating the vehicle without frequent shifting.
Lane changes and turning
Avoid quick lane changes, sudden turns, and tight turns. Slow down before turning to avoid
the need of sudden braking.
A turning trailer will make a tighter arc than the tow vehicle. Compensate with turns that are
larger than normal.
