▼ Modi
fication and Add-On
Equipment
Mazda cannot guarantee the
immobilizer system's 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 system
or the vehicle.
Immobilizer System
▼ Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system allows the EV
system to start only with a key the
system recognizes.
If someone attempts to start the EV
system with an unrecognized key, the
EV system 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 modi fications 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, under direct sunlight.
If the EV system does not start with
the correct key, and the security
indicator light keeps illuminating or
fl ashing, 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 security validation, this
will add some delays in supplying a
replacement key. 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.

location within the signal range,
switch the power switch o ff, and
then restart the EV system.
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 EV system
fails to start, check the security
indicator light.
