If a remote transmitter has been lost
and you would like to remove it
from the vehicle's memory, or you
would like to purchase additional
remote transmitters and have them
programmed to your vehicle:
²Takeallyour vehicle's
transmitters to your dealer for
programming, or
²Perform the programming
procedure yourself.
Programming remote transmitters
It is necessary to haveall(maximum of four Ð original and/or new) of
your remote transmitters available prior to beginning this procedure.
NOTE:This procedure must be completed within the specified times. If
not completed within the specified time period, reprogramming
procedures must be restarted from the beginning.
To program the transmitters yourself:
²Place the key in the ignition and
turn from 2 (LOCK) to 3 (OFF)
and cycle between 3 (OFF) and
4(ON) eight times in rapid
succession (within 10 seconds)
with the eighth turn ending in the
4 (ON) position. The doors will
lock/unlock to confirm that
programming mode has been
entered.
²Within 20 seconds, program a
remote transmitter by pressing any button on a transmitter. The doors
will lock/unlock to confirm that the remote transmitter has been
programmed. (If more than 20 seconds pass before pressing a remote
transmitter button, the programming mode will exit and the procedure

SECURILOCKYPASSIVE ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM
SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system is an engine immobilization
system. This system is designed to prevent the engine from being started
unless acoded keyis used.
NOTE:The SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system is not compatible
with non-Mazda aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems
may result in vehicle starting problems and a loss of security protection.
THEFT INDICATOR
The theft indicator is the flashing red indicator located on top of the
instrument panel.
²When the ignition is in the OFF position, the indicator will flash once
every 2 seconds to indicate the SecuriLockysystem is functioning as
a theft deterrent.
²When the ignition is in the ON position, the indicator will glow for 3
seconds to indicate normal system functionality.
If a problem occurs with the SecuriLockysystem, the indicator will flash
rapidly or glow steadily when the ignition is in the ON position. If this
occurs, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer for service.
Automatic arming
The vehicle is armed immediately
after switching the ignition to the 3
(OFF) position. The
THEFT
indicator in the instrument cluster
will flash every two seconds when
the vehicle is armed.
Automatic disarming
Switching the ignition to the 4 (ON) position with acoded keydisarms
the vehicle. The
THEFTindicator will illuminate for three seconds and
then go out. If the
THEFTindicator stays on for an extended period of
time or flashes rapidly, have the system serviced by your authorized
Mazda dealership.

Key information
Your vehicle is supplied withtwo coded keys.Only acoded keywill
start your vehicle. Spare coded keys can be purchased from your
authorized Mazda dealership. Your dealership can program your key or
you can ªdo it yourself.º Refer toProgramming spare keys.
The SecuriLockypassive anti-theft system is not compatible with
aftermarket remote start systems. Use of these systems may
result in vehicle starting problems and a loss of security
protection.
NOTE:Large metallic objects, electronic devices on the key chain that
can be used to purchase gasoline or similar items, or a second key on the
same key ring as thecoded keymay cause vehicle starting issues.
NOTE:If present, you need to keep these objects from touching the
coded keywhile starting the engine.
NOTE:These objects and devices cannot damage thecoded key,but
can cause a momentary issue if they are too close to the key during
engine start.
NOTE:If a problem occurs, turn ignition OFF and restart the engine
with all other objects on the key ring held away from the ignition key.
Check to make sure the encoded ignition key is an approved Mazda
encoded ignition key.
If your keys are lost or stolen you will need to do the following:
²Use your spare key to start the vehicle. or
²Have your vehicle towed to an authorized Mazda dealership. . The key
codes will need to be erased from your vehicle and new key codes will
need to be re-coded.
Replacingcoded keycan be very costly and you may want to store an
extra programmed key away from the vehicle in a safe place to prevent
an unforeseen inconvenience.
WARNING: If an unprogrammed key is used in the ignition it
will cause a ªno startº condition.
Programming spare keys
A maximum of eight keys can be coded to your vehicle. Only
SecuriLockykeys can be used. To program acoded keyyourself, you
will need two previously programmedcoded keys(keys that already
operate your vehicle's engine) and the new unprogrammed key(s) readily
accessible for timely implementation of each step in the procedure.

If two previously programmed coded keys are not available, you must
bring your vehicle to your dealership to have the spare coded key(s)
programmed.

ignition from 3 (OFF) to 4 (ON)
(maintain ignition in 4 (ON) for
at least one second).
2. Turn ignition to 3 (OFF) then 2

new unprogrammed key (new key/valet key) into the ignition and
turn the ignition from 3 (OFF) to 4 (ON) (maintain ignition in 4
(ON) for at least one second). This step will program your new key
to a coded key.
6. To program additional new unprogrammed key(s), repeat this
procedure from step 1.
If successful, the new coded key(s) will start the vehicle's engine and the
theft indicator will illuminate for three seconds and then go out.
If not successful, the new coded key(s) will not start the vehicle's engine

WARNING: Never adjust the driver's seat or seatback when the
vehicle is moving. Sudden braking or a collision could cause
serious injury. Adjust the seat only when the vehicle is stopped.

shoulder belt on the outside shoulder only. Never wear the
shoulder belt under the arm. 2) Never swing the safety belt
around your neck over the inside shoulder. 3) Never use a

The front outboard safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap
and shoulder belts. The front passenger outboard safety belt has two
types of locking modes described below:
Energy Management Feature
²This vehicle has a seat belt system with an energy management
feature at the front outboard seating positions to help further reduce
the risk of injury in the event of a head-on collision.
²This seat belt system has a retractor assembly that is designed to pay
out webbing in a controlled manner. This feature is designed to help
reduce the belt force acting on the occupant's chest.
Vehicle sensitive mode
The vehicle sensitive mode is the normal retractor mode, allowing free
shoulder belt length adjustment to your movements and locking in
response to vehicle movement. For example, if the driver brakes
suddenly or turns a corner sharply, or the vehicle receives an impact of
approximately 8 km/h (5 mph) or more, the combination safety belts will
lock to help reduce forward movement of the driver and passengers.
Automatic locking mode
In this mode, the shoulder belt is automatically pre-locked. The belt will
still retract to remove any slack in the shoulder belt.
The automatic locking mode is not available on the driver safety belt.
When to use the automatic locking mode
²Any timea child safety seat is installed in a passenger front seat.
Refer toSafety Restraints for Children,Safety Seats for Children,
orPassenger air bag On/Off switchlater in this chapter.

How to use the automatic locking mode
²Buckle the combination lap and
shoulder belt.
²Grasp the shoulder portion and
pull downward until the entire
belt is extracted.
²Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking
sound. This indicates the safety belt is now in the automatic locking
mode.
How to disengage the automatic locking mode
Disconnect the combination lap/shoulder belt and allow it to retract
completely to disengage the automatic locking mode and activate the
vehicle sensitive (emergency) locking mode.
