WARNING
Never allow a person to ride in the
luggage compartment:
Allowing a person to ride in the
luggage compartment is dangerous.
The person in the luggage
compartment could be seriously
injured or killed during sudden braking
or a collision.
Do not drive with the liftgate open:
Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle is
dangerous. An open liftgate in a
moving vehicle will cause exhaust gas
to be drawn into the cabin. This gas
contains CO (carbon monoxide),
which is colourless, odourless, and
highly poisonous, and it can cause loss
of consciousness and death. Moreover,
an open liftgate could cause occupants
to fall out in an accident.
Do not stack or leave loaded luggage
unsecured in the luggage
compartment:
Otherwise, the luggage may move or
collapse, resulting in injury or an
accident. In addition, do not load
luggage higher than the seatbacks. It
may affect the side or rear field of view.
CAUTION
¾Before opening the liftgate, remove
any snow and ice accumulation on it.
Otherwise, the liftgate could close
under the weight of the snow and ice
resulting in injury.
Before Driving
Doors and Locks

¾Be careful when opening/closing the
liftgate during strong winds. If a
strong gust blows against the liftgate,
it could close suddenly resulting in
injury.
¾Fully open the liftgate and make sure
that it stays open. If the liftgate is
only opened partially, it could slam
shut by vibration or wind gusts
resulting in injury.
¾When loading or unloading luggage
in the luggage compartment, turn off
the engine. Otherwise, you could get
burned by the heat of the exhaust
gas.
¾Be careful not to apply excessive
force to the damper stay on the
liftgate such as by putting your hand
on the stay. Otherwise, the damper
stay may bend and affect the liftgate
operation.
1. Damper stay
¾Do not modify or replace the liftgate
damper stay. Consult an expert
repairer (we recommend an
Authorised Mazda Repairer) if a
liftgate damper stay is deformed or
damaged for reasons such as a
collision or if there is some other
problem.

WARNING
Be sure to watch the power liftgate as
it opens or closes, and make sure that
it closes completely:
Opening or closing the power liftgate
while not watching it move is
dangerous. Because of unseen
obstacles and the jam-safe feature, a
liftgate may not close completely and,
if left unnoticed, could result in serious
injury or death if an occupant were to
fall out of the vehicle.
Always be sure that the area around
the liftgate is clear before activating it.
Before Driving
Doors and Locks

Always confirm the safety of the area
around the power liftgate before
operating it electrically.
Not checking the area around the

using the power liftgate switch or the
button on the keyless entry system is
dangerous. A person could become
caught between the liftgate and an
obstruction while it is opening
electrically or between the liftgate and
vehicle while it is closing electrically,
resulting in an accident and serious
injury.
Never allow children to operate the
power liftgate system:
Allowing children to operate the
power liftgate switch and the keyless
entry system is dangerous. Children are
not aware of the dangers of people
getting
fingers and hands caught in a
moving liftgate. If someone's neck,
head or hands get caught in a closing
door, it could result in death or serious
injury.
CAUTION
¾When closing the power liftgate,
make sure there are no foreign
objects around the striker. If foreign
objects are obstructing the striker,
the liftgate may not close properly.

operation. The power liftgate may
open/close unexpectedly depending
on its position which could result in
injury.

close electrically if the vehicle is
parked on an incline, or there is
strong wind, or the liftgate is laden
with snow.

WARNING
Always check the area around the
power liftgate before opening/closing
it:
Not checking for occupants and
objects around the power liftgate
before opening/closing it is
dangerous. The jam-safe equipment is
designed to prevent jamming in the
event an obstruction is in the liftgate's
path. The system may not detect
certain objects obstructing the liftgate
depending on the way they are
positioned and their shape. However,
if the jam-safe function detects an
obstruction and moves the liftgate in
the reverse direction, an occupant in
the liftgate's path could be seriously
injured.
CAUTION
Sensors are installed on both ends of
the power liftgate. Be careful not to
allow the sensors to be scratched or
damaged by sharp objects, otherwise
the liftgate may no longer open/close
automatically. In addition, if the sensor
is damaged while the liftgate is closing
automatically, the system will stop.
