WARNING
Do not leave the key in your vehicle
with children and keep them in a place
where your children will not ¿ 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 ¿ 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.
 
 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 ¿ eld.




 Place heavy objects on the key.



 Put the key in an ultrasonic
cleaner.
 


 Put any magnetized objects close
to the key.

CAUTION
Changes or modi¿ cations not expressly
approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE
  The keyless entry system operation
may vary due to local conditions.
  The keyless entry system is fully
operational (door/liftgate lock/
unlock) when the ignition is switched
off. The system does not operate
if the ignition is switched to any
position other than off.
  If the key does not operate when
pressing a button or the operational
range becomes too small, the
battery may be weak. To install a
new battery, refer to Key Battery
Replacement (page 6-37 ).

 Battery life is about one year.
Replace the battery with a new one
if the KEY indicator light (green)
À ashes in the instrument cluster.
Replacing the battery about once
a year is recommended because
the KEY warning light/indicator
light may not illuminate or À ash
depending on the rate of battery
depletion.
  Additional keys can be obtained at
an Authorised Mazda Repairer. Up to
6 keys can be used with the keyless
functions per vehicle. Bring all keys
to an Authorised Mazda Repairer
