Before Driving
Security System
Modifi cation and Add-On
Equipment
Mazda cannot guarantee the immobilizer
and the theft-deterrent systems' operation
if the system has been modifi ed 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
The immobilizer system allows the
engine to start only with a key the system
recognises.
If someone attempts to start the engine
with an unrecognised 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
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
CAUTION
  Changes or modifi cations 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 fi eld.




 Expose the key to high
temperatures on places such as the
instrument panel or bonnet, under
direct sunlight.
 
 If the engine 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 Authorised Mazda
Repairer.

3–45
Before Driving
Security System
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
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
  Always keep a spare key in case one
is lost. If a key is lost, consult an
Authorised Mazda Repairer as soon
as possible.
  If you lose a key, an Authorised
Mazda Repairer will reset the
electronic codes of your remaining
keys and immobilizer system.
Bring all the remaining keys to an
Authorised Mazda Repairer 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
fl ash if the key is placed in an area
where it is diffi cult for the system
to detect the signal, such as on the
instrument panel 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 fl ashes 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
fl ashing, 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 Authorised
Mazda Repairer.
NOTE
  If the security indicator light fl ashes
continuously while you are driving,
do not shut off the engine. Go to an
Authorised Mazda Repairer and have
it checked. If the engine is shut off
while the indicator light is fl ashing,
you will not be able to restart it.
  Because the electronic codes are
reset when the immobilizer system
is repaired, the keys are needed.
Make sure to bring all the keys to an
Authorised Mazda Repairer so that
they can be programmed.

When Driving
Start/Stop Engine
ACC (Accessory)
Some electrical accessories will operate
and the indicator light (amber) illuminates.
In this position the steering wheel is
unlocked.
NOTE
The keyless entry system does not
function while the push button start has
been pressed to ACC, and the doors will
not lock/unlock even if they have been
locked manually.
O N
This is the normal running position after
the engine is started. The indicator light
(amber) turns off. (The indicator light
(amber) illuminates when the ignition
is switched ON and the engine is not
running.)
Some indicator lights/warning lights
should be inspected before the engine is
started (page 4-40 ).
NOTE
(SKYACTIV-G 1.5, MZR 1.6,
SKYACTIV-G 2.0)
When the push button start is pressed
to ON, the sound of the fuel pump
motor operating near the fuel tank can
be heard. This does not indicate an
abnormality.
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 expert repairer, we
recommend an Authorised Mazda
Repairer 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 4-9 .

(SKYACTIV-D 2.2) If the ambient temperature is lower
than about - 10 °C (14 °F), the
maximum engine speed may not
be attained for about three minutes
after the engine starts to protect the
engine.

depressing the clutch pedal within 3
seconds of the engine stopping.

 The clutch pedal is not released
completely after the engine stalled.
