Modification and
Add-On Equipment
▼ Modification
and Add-On
Equipment
Mazda cannot guarantee the
immobilizer and the theft-deterrent
systems' operation if the system has
been modified or if any add-on
equipment has been installed.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the vehicle, do not
modify the system or install any add-on
equipment to the immobilizer and the
theft-deterrent systems or the vehicle.
Immobilizer System
▼ Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system allows the
engine to start only with a key the
system recognizes.

If someone attempts to start the
engine with an unrecognized key, the
engine will not start, thereby helping to
prevent vehicle theft.
If you have a problem with the
immobilizer system or the key, consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
CAUTION

Radio equipment like this is
governed by laws in the United
States.
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate
the equipment.
 To avoid damage to the key, do not:
 Drop the key.
 Get the key wet.
 Expose the key to any kind of
magnetic field.
 Expose the key to high
temperatures on places such as the
dashboard or hood, under direct
sunlight.
 If the engine does not start with the
correct key, and the security indicator
light keeps illuminating or flashing,
the system may have a malfunction.
Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

NOTE
The keys carry a unique electronic
code. For this reason, and to assure
your safety, obtaining a replacement
key requires some waiting time. They
are only available through an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Always keep a spare key in case one
is lost. If a key is lost, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
If you lose a key, an Authorized
Mazda Dealer will reset the
electronic codes of your remaining
keys and immobilizer system. Bring
all the remaining keys to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer to reset.
Starting the vehicle with a key that
has not been reset is not possible.
▼Operation
NOTE
The engine may not start and security
indicator light may illuminate or flash
if the key is placed in an area where
it is difficult for the system to detect
the signal, such as on the dashboard
or in the glove compartment. Move
the key to a location within the signal
range, switch the ignition
off, and
then restart the engine.
Signals from a TV or radio station, or
from a transceiver or mobile
telephone could interfere with your
immobilizer system. If you are using
the proper key and the engine fails to
start, check the security indicator
light.
Arming
The system is armed when the ignition
is switched from ON to off.
The security indicator light in the
instrument cluster flashes every 2
seconds until the system is disarmed.

Disarming
The system is disarmed when the
ignition is switched ON with the
correct programmed key. The security
indicator light illuminates for about 3
seconds and then turns off.
If the engine does not start with the
correct key, and the security indicator
light remains illuminated or flashing,
try the following:
Make sure the key is within the
operational range for signal
transmission. Switch the ignition off,
and then restart the engine. If the
engine does not start after 3 or more
tries, contact an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

abnormality.
Starting the Engine
▼Starting the Engine
WARNING
Radio waves from the key may affect
medical devices such as pacemakers:
Before using the key near people who
use medical devices, ask the medical
device manufacturer or your physician
if radio waves from the key will affect
the device.
NOTE
The key must be carried because the
key carries an immobilizer chip that
must communicate with the engine
controls at short range.
The engine can be started when the
push button start is pressed from off,
ACC, or ON.
The push button start system
functions (function which can start
the engine by only carrying the key)
can be deactivated to prevent any
possible adverse effect on a user
wearing a pacemaker or other
medical device. If the system is
deactivated, you will be unable to
start the engine by carrying the key.
Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer
for details. If the push button start
system functions have been
deactivated, you can start the engine
by following the procedure indicated
when the key battery goes dead.
Refer to Engine Start Function When
Key Battery is Dead on page 4-7.
After starting a cold engine, the
engine speed increases and a
whining sound from the engine
compartment can be heard.
