When the power switch is switched
to ACC or ON, the vehicle lock-out
prevention feature prevents you from
locking yourself out of the vehicle.
All doors, charge lid, and liftgate will
automatically unlock if they are
locked using the power door locks
with any door or the liftgate open.
The vehicle lock-out prevention
feature does not operate while the
power switch is switched off.
When all doors, charge lid, and
liftgate are locked using the power
door lock with any door or the
liftgate open, the closed doors,
charge lid, and liftgate are locked.
After that, when all doors and the
liftgate are closed, all doors and the
liftgate are locked. However, if the
key is inside the vehicle, all doors,
charge lid, and liftgate are
automatically unlocked.
(With the advanced keyless
function)
The beep sound is heard for about
10 seconds to notify the driver that
the key has been left in the vehicle.
(Without the advanced keyless
function)
The horn sound is heard twice to
notify the driver that the key has
been left in the vehicle.
(Door unlock (control) system with
collision detection)
This system automatically unlocks the
doors, charge lid, and liftgate in the
event the vehicle is involved in an
accident to allow passengers to get
out of the vehicle immediately and
prevent being trapped inside. While
the power switch is switched ON
and in the event the vehicle receives
an impact strong enough to in flate
the air bags, all the doors, charge lid,
and liftgate are automatically
unlocked after about 6 seconds have
elapsed from the time of the
accident.
The doors, charge lid, and liftgate
may not unlock depending on how
an impact is applied, the force of the
impact, and other conditions of the
accident.
If door-related systems or the battery
is malfunctioning, the doors, charge
lid, and liftgate may not unlock
depending on your vehicle type.
▼ Unlocking with Auxiliary Key
Only the driver's door can be unlocked
using the auxiliary key.
Refer to Keys on page 3-25.
Insert the auxiliary key while the

The front radar sensor includes a
function for detecting soiling of the
radar sensor's front surface and
informing the driver, however,
depending on the conditions, it may
require time to detect or it may not
detect plastic shopping bags, ice or
snow. If this occurs, the system may
not operate correctly, therefore
always keep the front radar sensor
clean.
If “Safety and Driver Support Systems

on the multi-information display of
the instrument cluster, clean the area
around the front radar sensor.
Do not install a grille guard.
If the front part of the vehicle has
been damaged in a vehicle accident,
the position of the front radar sensor
may have moved. Stop the system
immediately and always have the
vehicle inspected at an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
Do not use the front bumper to push
other vehicles or obstructions such
as when pulling out of a parking
space. Otherwise, the front radar
sensor could be hit and its position
deviated.
For repairs, replacement or paint
work around the front radar sensor,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Always use tires for all wheels that
are of the speci fied size, and the

When the power switch is switched OFF, the system status before it was turned off
is maintained. For example, if the power switch is switched OFF while the parking
sensor is activated, the system will be activated when the power switch is switched
ON the next time.
The system may not operate normally under the following conditions:
Mud, ice, or snow is adhering to the sensor area (Returns to normal operation
when removed).
The sensor area is frozen (Returns to normal operation when the ice is thawed).The sensor is covered by a hand.The sensor is excessively shocked.The vehicle is excessively tilted.Under extremely hot or cold weather conditions.The vehicle is driven on bumps, inclines, gravel, grating, or grass covered roads.Anything which generates ultrasonic wave s such as another vehicle's horn, the
engine sound of a motorcycle, the air brake sound of a large-sized vehicle, or
another vehicle's sensors approaches the vehicle.
The vehicle is driven in heavy rain or in road conditions causing water-splash.A commercially-available fender pole or an antenna for a radio transmitter is
installed to the vehicle.
The vehicle is moving towards a tall or square curbstone, or a steep grade.An obstruction is too close to the sensor.The vehicle is moving towards an uneven wall or stairs.There are multiple obstructions.The vehicle is driven in a place with low ceilings.Obstructions under the bumper cannot be detected. Obstructions which are
lower than the sensor or thin may not be detected even though they were
detected once.
The following types of obstructions may not be detected:
Thin objects such as wire, rope or polesThings which absorb sonic waves easily such as cotton or snowAngular shaped objectsVery tall objects, and those which are wide at the topSmall, short objectsAlways have the system inspected at an Authorized Mazda Dealer if any shock is
applied to the bumpers, even in a minor accident. If the sensors are deviated, they
cannot detect obstructions.
The system may have a malfunction if a sound is not activated or the detection
indication is not displayed even when th e parking sensor OFF switch is pressed
