WARNING
Always adjust the audio while the
vehicle is stopped:
Do not adjust the audio control
switches while driving the vehicle.
Adjusting the audio while driving
the vehicle is dangerous as it could
distract your attention from the vehicle
operation which could lead to a serious
accident.
Even if the audio control switches are
equipped on the steering wheel, learn
to use the switches without looking
down at them so that you can keep your
maximum attention on the road while
driving the vehicle.
CAUTION
For the purposes of safe driving, adjust
the audio volume to a level that allows
you to hear sounds outside of the vehicle
including car horns and particularly
emergency vehicle sirens.
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.

FM Station
40—50km
(25—30 miles)
Signals from an FM transmitter are similar
to beams of light because they do not
bend around corners, but they do reÀ ect.
Unlike AM signals, FM signals cannot
travel beyond the horizon. Therefore, FM
stations cannot be received at the great
distances possible with AM reception.

AM wave FM wave
FM wave
100—200 km (60—120 miles) Ionosphere

Atmospheric conditions can also affect
FM reception. High humidity will cause
poor reception. However, cloudy days may
provide better reception than clear days.
Multipath noise
Since FM signals can be reÀ ected by
obstructions, it is possible to receive both
the direct signal and the reÀ ected signal
at the same time. This causes a slight
delay in reception and may be heard as a
broken sound or a distortion. This problem
may also be encountered when in close
proximity to the transmitter.

Flutter/Skip noise
Signals from an FM transmitter move in
straight lines and become weak in valleys
between tall buildings, mountains, and
other obstacles. When a vehicle passes
through such an area, the reception
conditions may change suddenly, resulting
in annoying noise.


Weak signal noise
In suburban areas, broadcast signals
become weak because of distance from the
transmitter. Reception in such fringe areas
is characterised by sound breakup.

Strong signal noise
This occurs very close to a transmitter
tower. The broadcast signals are extremely
strong, so the result is noise and sound
breakup at the radio receiver.


Station drift noise
When a vehicle reaches the area of two
strong stations broadcasting at similar
frequencies, the original station may be
temporarily lost and the second station
picked up. At this time there will be some
noise from this disturbance.

NOTE
  Playback may not be possible
depending on the type and condition
of the USB À ash memory even if the
audio ¿ le complies with the standard.

  The order of the music data stored
in the device may differ from the
playback order.
  To prevent loss or damage of stored

back up your data.
  If a device exceeds the maximum
electric current value of 1,000 mA,
it may not operate or recharge when
connected.
  Do not pull out the USB device while
in the USB mode (only pull it out
while in FM/AM radio or CD mode).
  The device will not operate if the

Operating Tips for iPod
This unit supports playback of music ¿ les
recorded to an iPod.


* iPod is a trademark of Apple Inc.,
registered in the U.S. and other
countries.

The iPod may not be compatible
depending on the model or OS version. In
this case, an error message is displayed.
CAUTION
  Remove the iPod when it is not in
use. Because the iPod is not designed
to withstand excessive changes
in temperature inside the cabin, it
could be damaged or the battery
may deteriorate due to the excessive
temperature or humidity inside the
cabin if it is left in the vehicle.
  If data in the iPod is lost while it is
connected to the unit, Mazda cannot
guarantee recovery of any lost data.
  If the iPod battery is deteriorated, the
iPod may not recharge and playback
may not be possible when it is
connected to the unit.
  For details on using the iPod, refer to
the iPod instruction manual.
  When connecting the iPod to a USB
port, all commands are made from
the audio unit. iPod control is not
possible.
NOTE
The audio unit cannot display images or
videos stored in an iPod.

If Trouble Arises
Warning/Indicator Lights and Warning Sounds
*Some models.
NOTE
  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.
  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.
  When a small child sits on the front
passenger seat, it is possible that the
warning beep will not operate.
Rear seat
*
The warning beep only sounds if a seat
belt is unfastened after being fastened.
Ignition Not Switched Off (STOP)
Warning Beep
If the driver's door is opened with the
ignition switched to ACC, a beep will
be heard continuously in the cabin to
notify the driver that the ignition has not
been switched OFF (STOP). Under this
condition, the keyless entry system will
not operate, the vehicle cannot be locked,
and the battery voltage will be depleted.
Key Removed from Vehicle
Warning Beep
Vehicles with advanced keyless function
If the key is taken out of the vehicle while
the ignition is not switched OFF and
all the doors are closed, the beep which
sounds outside of the vehicle will be heard
6 times, the beep which sounds inside
the vehicle will be heard 6 times, and the
KEY warning light (red) in the instrument
cluster À ashes continuously to notify
the driver that the ignition has not been
switched OFF.
Vehicles without advanced keyless
function
If the key is taken out of the vehicle while
the ignition is not switched OFF and all
the doors are closed, a beep will be heard
in the cabin 6 times and the KEY warning
light (red) in the instrument cluster turns
on continuously to notify the driver that
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 the
door open or ajar, or the ignition is not
switched OFF with a key being carried, a
beep will be heard outside for about
2 seconds to notify the driver that the door
or liftgate/boot lid cannot be locked.

Cell Phones
Cell Phones Warning
WARNING
Please comply with the legal regulations concerning the use of communication
equipment in vehicles in your country:
Use of any electrical devices such as cell phones, computers, portable radios, vehicle
navigation or other devices by the driver while the vehicle is moving is dangerous.
Dialing a number on a cell phone while driving also ties-up the driver's hands. Use of
these devices will cause the driver to be distracted and could lead to a serious accident.
If a passenger is unable to use the device, pull off the right-of-way to a safe area before
use. If use of a cell phone is necessary despite this warning, use a hands-free system
to at least leave the hands free to drive the vehicle. Never use a cell phone or other
electrical devices while the vehicle is moving and, instead, concentrate on the full-time
job of driving.
