Door Locks
▼Door Locks
WA R N I N G
Always take all children and pets with you
or leave a responsible person with them:
Leaving a child or a pet unattended in a
parked vehicle is dangerous. In hot
weather, temperatures inside a vehicle can
become high enough to cause brain
damage or even death.
Do not leave the key in your vehicle with
children and keep them in a place where
your children will not find 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.
Keep all doors locked when driving:
Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle are
dangerous. Passengers can fall out if a
door is accidentally opened and can more
easily be thrown out in an accident.
Always close all the windows and
moonroof, lock the doors, fuel-filler lid, and
liftgate and take the key with you when
leaving your vehicle unattended:
Leaving your vehicle unlocked is dangerous
as children could lock themselves in a hot
vehicle, which could result in death. Also, a
vehicle left unlocked becomes an easy
target for thieves and intruders.
After closing the doors and the liftgate/
trunk lid, always verify that they are
securely closed:
Doors and the liftgate/trunk lid not
securely closed are dangerous, if the vehicle
is driven with a door and the liftgate/trunk
lid not securely closed, the door and the
liftgate/trunk lid could open unexpectedly
resulting in an accident.
Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before opening a door and the
liftgate/trunk lid:
Suddenly opening a door and the liftgate/
trunk lid is dangerous. A passing vehicle or
a pedestrian could be hit and cause an
accident.
CAUTION

Always confirm the conditions around
the vehicle before opening/closing the
doors and the liftgate/trunk lid and use
caution during strong winds or when
parked on an incline. Not being aware of
the conditions around the vehicle is
dangerous because fingers could get
caught in the door and the liftgate/trunk
lid or a passing pedestrian could be hit,
resulting in an unexpected accident or
injury.
NOTE
Always stop the engine and lock the
doors. In addition, to prevent theft of
valuables, do not leave them inside the
cabin.

are locked automatically when the
advanced key is out of the operational
range. Also, the hazard warning lights
flash once. (Even if the driver is in the
operational range, all the doors and
liftgate are locked automatically after
about 30 seconds.) If you are out of the
operational range before the doors and
the liftgate are completely closed or
another key is left in the vehicle, the
walk-away auto lock function will not
work. Always make sure that all doors
and the liftgate are closed and locked
before leaving the vehicle. The
walk-away auto lock function does not
close the power windows.
(Auto re-lock function)
After unlocking with the touch sensor,
all the doors and liftgate will
automatically lock if any of the
following operations are not performed
within about 60 seconds. If your vehicle

▼Emission Control System
This vehicle is equi
pped with an emission
control system (the catalytic converter is
part of this system) that enables the
vehicle to comply with existing exhaust
emissions requirements.
WA R N I N G
Never park over or near anything
flammable:
Parking over or near anything flammable,
such as dry grass, is dangerous. Even with
the engine turned off, the exhaust system
remains very hot after normal use and
could ignite anything flammable. A
resulting fire could cause serious injury or
death.
CAUTION
Ignoring the following precautions could
cause lead to accumulate on the catalyst
inside the converter or cause the converter
to get very hot. Either condition will
damage the converter and cause poor
performance.
 USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL.
 Do not drive your Mazda with any sign of
engine malfunction.
 Do not coast with the ignition switched
off.
 Do not descend steep grades in gear with
the ignition switched off.
 Do not operate the engine at high idle for
more than 2 minutes.
 Do not tamper with the emission control
system. All inspections and adjustments
must be made by a qualified technician.
Do not push-start or pull-start this
vehicle.
NOTE
Under U.S. federal law, any
modification to the original-equipment
emission control system before the first
sale and registration of a vehicle is
subject to penalties. In some states, such
modification made on a used vehicle is
also subject to penalties.
While the engine is off, the sound of a
valve opening and closing can be heard
at the rear of the vehicle, however this
does not indicate an abnormality. The
vehicle has a self-checking device and it
operates while the engine is off.
▼ Engine Exhaust (Carbon monoxide)
WA R N I N G
Do not drive your vehicle if you smell
exhaust gas inside the vehicle:
Engine exhaust gas is dangerous. This gas
contains carbon monoxide (CO), which is
colorless, odorless, and poisonous. When
inhaled, it can cause loss of consciousness
and death. If you smell exhaust gas inside
the vehicle, keep all windows fully open
and contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer
immediately.

Do not run the engine when inside an
enclosed area:
Running the engine inside an enclosed
area, such as a garage, is dangerous.
Exhaust gas, which contains poisonous
carbon monoxide, could easily enter the
cabin. Loss of consciousness or even death
could occur.
Open the windows or adjust the heating or
cooling system to draw fresh air when
idling the engine:
Exhaust gas is dangerous. When the vehicle
is stopped with the windows closed and the
engine running for a long time even in an
open area, exhaust gas, which contains
poisonous carbon monoxide, could enter
the cabin. Loss of consciousness or even
death could occur.
Clear snow from underneath and around
your vehicle, particularly the tail pipe,
before starting the engine:
Running the engine when a vehicle is
stopped in deep snow is dangerous. The
exhaust pipe could be blocked by the snow,
allowing exhaust gas to enter the cabin.
Because exhaust gas contains poisonous
carbon monoxide, it could cause loss of
consciousness or even death to occupants
in the cabin.Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
▼Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
WA R N I N G
When removing the fuel-filler cap, loosen
the cap slightly and wait for any hissing to
stop, then remove it:
Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can burn skin
and eyes and cause illness if ingested. Fuel
spray is released when there is pressure in
the fuel tank and the
fuel-filler cap is
removed too quickly.
Before refueling, stop the engine, and
always keep sparks and flames away from
the filler neck:
Fuel vapor is dangerous. It could be ignited
by sparks or flames causing serious burns
and injuries.
Additionally, use of the incorrect fuel-filler
cap or not using a fuel-filler cap may result
in a fuel leak, which could result in serious
burns or death in an accident.
Do not continue refueling after the fuel
pump nozzle shuts off automatically:
Continuing to add fuel after the fuel pump
nozzle has shut off automatically is
dangerous because overfilling the fuel tank
may cause fuel overflow or leakage. Fuel
overflow and leakage could damage the
vehicle and if the fuel ignites it could cause
a fire and explosion resulting in serious
injury or death.

fuel-filler cap or an approved equivalent,
available at an Authorized Mazda
Dealer. The wrong cap can result in a
serious malfunction of the fuel and
emission control systems.
It may also cause the check engine light
in the instrument cluster to illuminate.
 When using an automatic car wash or a
high water pressure car wash, lock the
driver's door. Otherwise, the fuel lid may
open unexpectedly and could be
damaged.
