Power Windows
The ignition switch must be in the ON
position for the power windows to
operate.
WARNING
Make sure the opening is clear before
closing a window:
Closing power windows are
dangerous. A person's hands, head, or
even neck could be caught by the
window and result in serious injury or
even death.
This warning applies especially to
children.
Always lock all passenger power
windows with the power window lock
switch on the driver's side while
children are in the vehicle, and never
allow children to play with power
window switches:
Leaving the power window switches
unlocked while children are in the
vehicle is dangerous. Power window
switches that are not locked with the
power window lock switch would allow
children to operate power windows
unintentionally which could result in
serious injury if a child's hands, head
or neck becomes caught by the
window.
CAUTION
To prevent burning out the fuse and
damaging the power window system,
do not open or close more than three
windows at once.

NOTE
lThe two-step down function cannot
be canceled if the procedure is not
completed within the specified times,
or the procedure is changed along
the way. To redo the procedure, first
turn the ignition switch to the LOCK
position and proceed from the
beginning.
lIf you are unable to cancel the
function despite doing the
cancellation procedure, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Restoring the two-step down function
With the two-step down function in the
canceled state, repeat the previous
procedure for canceling the function on
each door switch and it will be restored.
NOTE
If you are unable to restore the function
despite doing the restore procedure,
consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Jam-safe window
If a person's hands, head or an object
blocks the window during the manual
closing operation or the auto-closing
operation, the window will stop and open
halfway.
WARNING
Make sure nothing blocks the window
just before it reaches the fully closed
position or while fully holding up the
power window switch:
Blocking the power window just
before it reaches the fully closed
position or while fully holding up the
power window switch is dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function
cannot prevent the window from
stopping. If fingers are caught, serious
injuries could occur.
NOTE
Depending on driving conditions, a
closing power window could stop and
start opening when the window feels a
shock that is similar to something
blocking it.
In the event the jam-safe function
activates and the power window cannot
be closed automatically using the auto-
opening method, pull and hold the
switch fully and the window will close.
Engine-off power window operation
The power window can be operated about
40 seconds after the ignition switch is
turned from the ON position to the ACC
or LOCK position with all doors closed. If
either front door is opened, the power
window will be inoperable.

Auto-Opening
Because nobody likes getting into a very
hot car, we have introduced a way to get a
head start on cooling it, even before you
put your seat belts on and insert your key
in the ignition. If you see the vehicle is in
a secure area, you can open the two front
windows as you approach the vehicle to
get the air moving before you even step
into the hot vehicle.
WARNING
Use the auto-window function only
when you can see the vehicle and it is
in a secure area:
Do not let children play with your
keys. If they open the window without
your knowing, the open windows are
an even bigger invitation to a thief
than leaving the doors unlocked.
The windows can be opened for
ventilating the cabin before getting in the
vehicle.

Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
WARNING
When removing the fuel cap, loosen
the cap slightly and wait for any
hissing to stop. Then remove it:
Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can
burn skin and eyes and cause illness if
ingested. Fuel spray is released when
there is pressure in the fuel tank and
the fuel cap is removed too quickly.
Before refueling, stop the engine, and
always keep sparks and flames away
from the filler neck:
Fuel vapor is dangerous. It could be
ignited by sparks or flames causing
serious burns and injuries.
Additionally, use of the incorrect fuel
filler cap or not using a fuel filler cap
may result in fuel leak, which could
result in serious burns or death in an
accident.
CAUTION
Always use only a genuine Mazda fuel
cap or an approved equivalent,
available at an Authorized Mazda
Dealer. The wrong cap can result in a
serious malfunction of the fuel and
emission control systems. It may also
cause the check engine light in the
instrument cluster to illuminate.

WARNING
Do not let passengers stand up or
extend part of the body through the
open moonroof while the vehicle is

―especially a child―could be caught
in it as it closes, causing serious injury
or even death.
