Introduction
nExtremely low or high temperatures may interfere with normal operationThe inside of the vehicle can become very hot or cold when it is parked for extended
periods in direct sunlight or in cold places with the engine turned off. The navigation system
may not operate normally under such circumstances. Turn off the navigation system until
the inside of the vehicle has cooled down or warmed up. If the system does not operate
thereafter, consult an Authorized Dealer, we recommend an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
This navigation system utilizes GPS* satellite signals, a speed sensor and gyrosensor to track
and display your vehicle’s current position, and to guide you from your starting point to your
destination along a calculated route.
* : GPS (Global Positioning System) is a position de tecting system utilizing the signals from GPS satellites
deployed by the U.S. Defense Department.
The beep sound and voice guidance related to the navigation system operation are not heard
while a Bluetooth Hands-Free is being used.
Screens displayed in this manual may differ from those on the actual display.
Direct sunlight or other outside light sources makes it difficult to view the images on the
display. For moonroof-equipped vehicles, close the sunshade to better view the display.

If necessary
GPS is a position detecting system utilizing the signals
from GPS satellites deployed by the U.S. Department of
Defense. The Mobile Navigation System uses input from
three or more satellites and calculates the vehicle position
based on the principle of triangulation.
The positioning accuracy of the system corresponds to the
error display of the GPS which is from about 30 to 200 meters
(98 to 656 ft)
.
l If you are using the system for the first time, or if you have not used it for some time, it takes
about 5 minutes (or about 2 minutes in open areas) to calculate your vehicle’s position.
nGPS signal reception is poor in the following places
lThe GPS satellites are controlled by the U.S. Defense Department, which may intentionally
lower positioning accuracy. In such cases, there may be vehicle position deviations.
l There may be vehicle position deviations for some time until GPS signals are received after
switching on the ignition.
This function compares your vehicle’s tracking data with the road data on the map
disc, applies dead reckoning to determine the road you are driving on, and displays
your vehicle on that road on the map.
l Intelligent map matching addresses the following problems to achieve high accuracy in
vehicle positioning.
Position Correction for Elevated RoadsPosition accuracy is improved by detecting if the vehicle is
running on or under an elevated road.
Position Correction for Parking GaragesPosition accuracy is improved by detecting if the vehicle is
driving in an elevated or underground parking garage.
High-precision GyrosensorA gyro detects turns with an accuracy of 0.05° per second.
Combined with a speed sensor, it enables the system to
display the current vehicle position even where GPS signals
may be blocked.
l Using a spare tire in place of the regular one may cause vehicle position deviations.
l Any difference between the direction which your vehicle actually travels and that shown on
the map is automatically eliminated by azimuth correction.

Troubleshooting
Note
There may be some problems due to operational errors or mistakes. Please read this manual
again and verify that there really is a problem before calling an Authorized Mazda Dealer to
ask for repair services.
No picturel
Check if a fuse has blown.
Consult an Expert Dealer, we recommend an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
l Check if the voltage level of the vehicle battery is low.
Recharge the battery or change batteries.
Display does
not open or
close
The vehicle
position is not
correct
lCheck if the vehicle position changed when ACC was set to
OFF.
When, for example, • The vehicle was transported by a ferry boat.
• The vehicle was rotated on a turn table in a parking lot.
• The vehicle was transported by a tow track or other such
vehicle. Drive the vehicle for a while where you are receiving
GPS signals.

7. If the PIN code matches the previously registered PIN code, the system returns to the
normal mode.
8. The parental lock is now released. At this time, mute is off and the sound can be heard.
Note
l If an PIN code is not input for ten seconds, the system returns to the previous screen.
l If the input PIN code does not match the registered PIN code, ‘Wrong PIN was input.
Please input the PIN again.’ is displayed for three seconds and the system returns to the
PIN code input screen.
nMaster Code
The Master Code is used to initialize or re-initialize the PIN code in the event that the code is
not set to ‘0000’ and/or the personalized PIN code is not known. The initialization process
resets the PIN code to ‘0000’. The master code can potentially defeat the intent of the
security of the parental lock if it is located by persons not authorized by the owner to access
certain channels.
SIRIUS Satellite Radio Master Code: ‘0913’
nError Signs
(1) Depending on the surrounding conditions (such as large trees, buildings, or tunnels) and
special weather conditions, the reception of SIRIUS radio waves may be decreased or
temporarily interrupted. ‘ACQUIRING SIGNAL’ may appear.
The ‘ACQUIRING SIGNAL’ message will clear after one of the following occurs:
1. When the , , , , , or on-screen button is pressed.
2. When the weather conditions have been improved.
(2) In case of an antenna malfunction, ‘ANTENNA FAIL’ is displayed. Check the satellite radio antenna (refer to the ‘Antenna’ in the owner’s manual.), antenna
cable and DLP antenna connector.
The ‘ANTENNA FAIL’ message will clear after the antenna connection failure has been
restored.
Note
If a broken DLP* unit is replaced with a new unit, cancel the license for the broken unit and
make sure to carry out new registration for the replaced unit. If the license for the broken unit
is not canceled, you will be charged a reception fee for both units.
