STARTING THE ENGINE WITH
ACCELERATED WARM-UP SYSTEM (AWS)
The Mazda3 is equipped with SKYACTIV
combustion technology. This technology
includes AWS (Accelerated Warm-up
System) for optimal emission performance
during cold starting conditions.
While Carrying the Key…
• Start the engine by pushing the START/
STOP ENGINE button while pushing the
clutch pedal (M/ T) or the brake pedal (A / T).
What you will notice? On start-up, the
engine speed and sound are higher (1500
RPM) for less than 1 minute to quickly bring the
catalyst to efficient operating temperature. The RPM will
reduce to idle once the temperature is achieved. This
is normal engine operation under cold start conditions.
What this does? This heats up the catalytic
converter faster to reduce emissions and allows
Mazda to use an exhaust header on the engine
(to improve efficiency and horsepower).
• Shut the engine OFF by making sure the vehicle in park (A/T) and
• setting the parking brake, then push the START/STOP ENGINE button.
• Activate Accessories (ACC) by pushing the START/STOP
ENGINE button once without pushing the clutch or brake pedal.
• Turn the ignition to the ON position by pushing the START/STOP
ENGINE button twice without pushing the clutch or brake pedal.
NOTE: Yo u can drive the vehicle during AWS activation, no need to wait.
Emergency Engine Stop
Pushing and holding the START/STOP button or repeatedly pushing the
button while the engine is running will turn the engine OFF. Use only in case of
an emergency.
If the START/STOP ENGINE button indicator light flashes AMBER, this could
indicate a problem with the engine starting system. You may not be able to start
the engine or switch the ignition to ACC or ON. Have your vehicle inspec\
ted at an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
NOTE: The engine may not start if the key cannot be detected. The Key
Indicator Light may flash RED or “Key not detected” may be displayed if the key
is placed in the cup holder.
