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 colorless, odorless, 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
ØWhen loading or unloading
luggage in the luggage
compartment, turn off the engine.
Otherwise, you could get burned
by the heat of the exhaust gas.
Ø Be 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.

After performing this emergency measure,
have the vehicle inspected at an Authorized
Mazda Dealer as soon as possible.
Manually closing the liftgate
Use both hands to push the liftgate down
until the lock snaps shut. Do not slam it.
Pull up on the liftgate to make sure it is
securely latched.
qPower Liftgateí
The power liftgate opens/closes
electrically by operating switches in the
vehicle or the buttons on the keyless entry
system transmitter.
Refer to Keyless Entry System on page
3-13.
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.
Always confirm the safety of the area
around the power liftgate before
operating it electrically. Not checking the area around the
liftgate for people before operating it
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.

If the power liftgate switch/power liftgate close
switch/power liftgate button on the transmitter
is pressed or the outside handle is operated
while the liftgate is opening/closing
electrically, the beep sound is heard and the
liftgate moves in the reverse direction
automatically. If this operation is repeated the

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.
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
changes to manual operation.
Sensor
NOTE
The jam-safe equipment does not activate
during easy closure operation when the power
liftgate is between the near-shut position and
fully closed position.
When the power liftgate is moving in the
open/close direction and an obstruction is
detected, the beep sound will be heard and
the liftgate moves in the reverse direction.
NOTE
If the system repeatedly detects an object
obstructing the power liftgate in the open/close
direction several times, the beep sound will be
heard and the system changes to manual
operation.

Power liftgate drop prevention
mechanism
The power liftgate drop prevention
mechanism activates if the system detects
weight such as that caused by a snow-
laden liftgate when it is opened
electrically. After the liftgate is fully
opened, the beep sound will be heard and
the liftgate closes automatically.
NOTE
lIf the power liftgate is snow-laden, remove
the snow before operating the liftgate.
lTrying to force the power liftgate closed
manually immediately after it has fully
opened automatically may activate the
liftgate drop prevention mechanism.
However, this does not indicate a
malfunction.
Liftgate easy closure
The Easy Closure system automatically
closes the liftgate completely from the
near-shut position.
This system also operates when the
liftgate is closed manually.
WARNING
When closing a liftgate, always keep
hands and fingers away from the
liftgate:Placing hands or fingers around a
liftgate is dangerous because the
liftgate closes automatically from the
near-shut position, which could
cause hands and fingers to be
pinched and injured. NOTE
lIf the liftgate handle is pulled while the
easy closure function is operating, the
liftgate can be opened.
lIf the liftgate is opened/closed repeatedly in
a short period of time, the easy closure
function may not operate. Wait for a while
and then try again.
