Changing the power liftgate fully open
position
The power liftgate fully-open position can
be changed according to the height of a
garage.
When changing the position
1. Stop the liftgate at the desired position.
2. Press the power liftgate close switch for about three seconds.
A beep sound is activated two times to
indicate that the position change has
been completed.
NOTE
Set the desired fully-open position of the
liftgate at the position where it is open
more than halfway. The position where it
is less than halfway open cannot be set.
To reset
1. Open the liftgate.
2. Press the power liftgate close switchfor about seven seconds.
A beep sound is activated three times
to indicated that the reset has been
completed.
NOTE
After about 3 seconds have elapsed since
the switch was pressed, a beep sound is
activated 2 times to indicate that the
liftgate fully-open position has changed.
Continuously press the switch for about 7
seconds to complete the reset.
Jam-safe equipment
While the power liftgate is opening/
closing electrically and the system detects
a person or an object in the liftgate's path,
the liftgate will move in the reverse
direction automatically and stops.
WA R N I N G
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.

Fuel and Engine Exhaust Precautions
▼Fuel Requirements (SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5)
Vehicles with catalytic converters or oxygen sensors must use O
NLY UNLEADED FUEL,
which will reduce exhaust emissions and keep spark plug fouling to a minimum.

Your Mazda will perform best with fuel listed in the table.

Fuel and Emission
3-29
2017-6-7 7:51:19 Form No. CX-5 8FY4-EE-17E+L_Edition2

Fuel with a lower rating will negatively affect the emission co ntrol system performance and
could also cause engine knocking and serious engine damage.

CAUTION
 USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL.
Leaded fuel is harmful to the catalytic co nverter and oxygen sensors and will lead to
deterioration of the emission control system and or failures.
 The use of E10 fuel with 10 % ethanol in Euro pe is safe for your vehicle. Damage to your
vehicle may occur when ethanol exceeds this recommendation.
 Never add fuel system additives, otherwise the emission control system could be damaged.
Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer for details.
NOTE
(Premium unleaded fuel (within E85))
To maintain good engine startability and performance, the following points must be
observed.
•Refuelling using the same-type fuel is recommended.
•Add 16 L (4.2 US gal, 3.5 Imp gal) or more of fuel when refuelling.
•Drive the vehicle 10 km (6.2 mile) or more just after refuelling to allow the vehicle's
engine control system to learn the ethanol concentration accurately.
▼ Fuel Requirements
(SKYACTIV-D 2.2)
The vehicle will operate efficiently on diesel fuel with specif ication EN590 or the
equivalent.
CAUTION
 Never use fuel other than specification EN590 or the equivalent for your vehicle. Use of
petrol or paraffin in diesel engines will result in engine damage.
 Never add fuel system additives. Otherwise, the emission control system could be damaged.
Consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer for details.
NOTE
When refuelling, always add at least 10 L (2.6 US gal, 2.2 Imp gal) of fuel.

Theft-Deterrent System*
If the theft-deterrent system detects an
inappropriate entry in to the vehicle or the
intrusion sensor detects movement in the
vehicle which could result in the vehicle
(with the intrusion sensor) or its contents
being stolen, the alarm alerts the
surrounding area of an abnormality by
sounding the siren/horn and flashing the
hazard warning lights.

The system will not function unless it's
properly armed. So when you leave the
vehicle, follow the arming procedure
correctly.
Intrusion sensor
*
The intrusion s ensor uses ultrasonic waves
to detect movement inside the vehicle and
to raise an alert of an intrusion into the
vehicle.

The intrusion s ensor detects certain kinds
of movement inside the vehicle, however,
it may also respond to phenomenon
outside the vehicle such as vibrations, loud
noise, wind, and air currents.
CAUTION
In order for the intrusion sensor to operate
appropriately, be aware of the following:
 Do not hang clothing or objects from a
head restraint or a coat hook.
 Return the extension sunvisors to their
original positions.
 Do not blind the intrusion sensor by
covering it or placing objects over it.
 Do not allow the intrusion sensor to get
soiled or wipe it with a liquid.
Do not shock or cause an impact to the
intrusion sensor or the intrusion sensor
bezel.
 Do not install seats that are not Mazda
genuine products.
 To prevent obstruction of intrusion
sensor, do not place objects or cargo
near the intrusion sensor that are higher
than the head restraints.
