Do not use the seat warmer even when
taking a short nap in the vehicle:
The seat may be heated excessively and
cause a low-temperature burn.
Do not place heavy objects with sharp
projections on the seat, or insert needles or
pins into it:
This could cause the seat to become
excessively heated and result in injury from
a minor burn.
CAUTION
Do not use organic solvents to clean the
seat. It may damage the seat surface and
the heater.
NOTE
•If the ignition is switched off while the
seat warmer is operating (High, Mid or
Low) and then switched ON again, the
seat warmer will automatically operate
at the temperature set before switching
off the ignition.
•Use the seat warmer when the engine is
running. Leaving the seat warmer on for
long periods with the engine not running
could cause the battery power to be
depleted.
•The temperature of the seat warmer
cannot be adjusted beyond High, Mid
and Low because the seat warmer is
controlled by a thermostat.
▼Driving Position Memory*
The desired driving position can be called
up after programming the position.
The following driving positions can be
programmed.
•Driver’s seat position (seat slide, height
adjustment, front edge of seat bottom,

Rear Seat
▼ Split Folding the Seatbacks
By lowering the rear seatbacks the luggage
compartment space can be expanded.
WA R N I N G
Do not drive the vehicle with occupants on
folded down seatbacks or in the luggage
compartment.
Putting occupants in the luggage
compartment is dangerous because seat
belts cannot be fastened which could lead
to serious injury or death during sudden
braking or a collision.
Do not allow children to play inside the
vehicle with the seatbacks lowered.
Allowing children to play in the vehicle
with the seatbacks folded down is
dangerous. If a child enters the luggage
compartment and the seatbacks were
raised back up, the child may become
trapped in the luggage compartment
which could lead to an accident.
Tightly secure cargo in the luggage
compartment when it is transported with
the seatbacks folded down.
Driving without tightly securing cargo and
luggage is dangerous as it could move and
become an obstruction to driving during
emergency braking or a collision resulting
in an unexpected accident.

children and keep them in a place where
your children will not find or play with
them:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the key is
dangerous. This could result in someone
being badly injured or even killed. Children
may find these keys to be an interesting toy
to play with and could cause the power
windows or other controls to operate, or
even make the vehicle move.

function correctly under the following
conditions:
 The key is carried with communication
devices such as cellular phones.
 The key contacts or is covered by a
metal object.
 The key is near electronic devices such
as personal computers.
 Non-Mazda genuine electronic
equipment is installed in the vehicle.
 There is equipment which discharges
radio waves near the vehicle.
 The key (transmitter) may consume
battery power excessively if it receives
