Trunk Lid
WA R N I N G
Never allow a person to ride in the trunk:
Allowing a person to ride in the trunk is
dangerous. The person in the trunk could
be seriously injured or killed during sudden
braking or a collision.
Do not drive with the trunk lid open:
Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle is
dangerous. An open trunk lid in a moving
vehicle will cause exhaust gas to be drawn
into the cabin. This gas contains CO
(carbon monoxide), which is colorless,
odorless, and highly poisonous, and it can
cause loss of consciousness and death.
Moreover, an open trunk lid could cause
occupants to fall out in an accident.
CAUTION
Before opening the trunk lid, remove any
snow and ice accumulation on it.
Otherwise, the trunk lid could close
under the weight of the snow and ice
resulting in injury.
 Be careful when opening/closing the
trunk lid during strong winds. If a strong
gust blows against the trunk lid, it could
close suddenly resulting in injury.
 Fully open the trunk lid and make sure
that it stays open. If the trunk lid is only
opened partially, it could slam shut by
vibration or wind gusts resulting in
injury.
When loading or unloading luggage in
the trunk, turn off the engine. Otherwise,
you could get burned by the heat of the
exhaust gas.

Inside Trunk ReleaseLever
*
Your vehicle is equipped with an inside
trunk release lever that provides a means
of escape for children and adults in the
event they become locked inside the trunk.

No matter how careful adults might be
with keys and locki ng their cars, parents
should be aware that children may be
tempted to play around vehicles and use
the trunk as a hiding place.

Adults are advised to familiarize
themselves with the operation and location
of the inside trunk release lever so that all
children can be told about it in an
appropriate way, keeping in mind that
most vehicles do not have such levers.
WA R N I N G
Close the trunk lid, be sure the seat backs
are latched and do not allow children to
play inside the vehicle:
Leaving the trunk lid open or leaving
children in the vehicle with the keys is
dangerous. Children could open the trunk
lid and climb inside resulting in possible
injury or death from heat exposure.
Always keep the car from being a tempting
place to play by latching the rear seats,
doors and the trunk, and keeping the keys
where children can not play with them:
Leaving children or animals unattended in
a parked vehicle is dangerous. Babies left
sleeping and children who lock themselves
in cars or trunks can die very quickly from
heat prostration. Do not leave your
children or pets alone in a car at any time.
Do not leave the car, the rear folding seats
or the trunk unlocked.
▼ Opening the Trunk Lid from the
Inside
Slide the inside trunk release lever in the
direction of the arrow. The lever is made
of material that will
glow for hours in the
darkness of the trunk following a brief
exposure to ambient light.

The inside trunk release lever is located on
the inside of the trunk lid.

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.
CAUTION
Always use only a ge nuine Mazda 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.
(U.S.A. and Canada)
It may also cause the check engine light in
the instrument cluster to illuminate.
▼ Refueling
Before refueling, close all the doors,
windows, and the trunk lid, and switch the
ignition OFF.
1. To open the fuel-filler lid, pull the
remote fuel-filler lid release.
