M o d i¿ cation and Add-On
Equipment
Mazda cannot guarantee the immobilizer
and the theft-deterrent systems' operation
if the system has been modi¿ ed or if any
add-on equipment has been installed.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to the vehicle, do
not modify the system or install any
add-on equipment to the immobilizer
and the theft-deterrent systems or the
vehicle.

Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system allows the
engine to start only with a key the system
recognizes.

If someone attempts to start the engine
with an unrecognized key, the engine
will not start, thereby helping to prevent
vehicle theft.
If you have a problem with the
immobilizer system or the key, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
CAUTION
 


¾ Radio equipment like this is governed by
laws in the United States.
  Changes or modifi cations not expressly
approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
 


¾ To avoid damage to the key, do not: 



¾ Drop the key.



¾ Get the key wet.



¾ Expose the key to any kind of
magnetic fi eld.
 


¾ Expose the key to high temperatures
on places such as the dashboard or
hood, under direct sunlight.
 


¾ If the engine does not start with the
correct key, and the security indicator
light keeps illuminating or fl ashing, the
system may have a malfunction. Consult
an Authorized Mazda Dealer.

Security System
N O T E
 


y The keys carry a unique electronic code.
For this reason, and to assure your
safety, obtaining a replacement key
requires some waiting time. They are
only available through an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
 


y Always keep a spare key in case one
is lost. If a key is lost, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
 


y If you lose a key, an Authorized Mazda
Dealer will reset the electronic codes of
your remaining keys and immobilizer
system. Bring all the remaining keys to
an Authorized Mazda Dealer to reset.
  Starting the vehicle with a key that has
not been reset is not possible.

Operation
N O T E
 


y The engine may not start and security
indicator light may illuminate or À ash
if the key is placed in an area where it
is dif¿ cult for the system to detect the
signal, such as on the dashboard or in
the glove compartment. Move the key
to a location within the signal range,
switch the ignition off, and then restart
the engine.
 


y Signals from a TV or radio station, or
from a transceiver or mobile telephone
could interfere with your immobilizer
system. If you are using the proper key
and the engine fails to start, check the
security indicator light.

Arming
The system is armed when the ignition is
switched from ON to off.
The security indicator light in the
instrument cluster À ashes every 2 seconds
until the system is disarmed.



Disarming
The system is disarmed when the
ignition is switched ON with the correct
programmed key. The security indicator
light illuminates for about 3 seconds and
then turns off. If the engine does not start
with the correct key, and the security
indicator light remains illuminated or
À ashing, try the following:
Make sure the key is within the
operational range for signal transmission.
Switch the ignition off, and then restart the
engine. If the engine does not start after
3 or more tries, contact an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.
N O T E
 


y If the security indicator light À ashes
continuously while you are driving,
do not shut off the engine. Go to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer and have it
checked. If the engine is shut off while
the indicator light is À ashing, you will
not be able to restart it.
 


y Because the electronic codes are
reset when the immobilizer system
is repaired, the keys are needed.
Make sure to bring all the keys to an
Authorized Mazda Dealer so that they
can be programmed.

Start/Stop Engine
N O T E
 


y The key must be carried because the key
carries an immobilizer chip that must
communicate with the engine controls at
short range.
 


y The engine can be started when the
push button start is pressed from off,
ACC, or ON.
 


y The push button start system functions
(function which can start the engine
by only carrying the key) can be
deactivated to prevent any possible
adverse effect on a user wearing a
pacemaker or other medical device. If
the system is deactivated, you will be
unable to start the engine by carrying
the key. Consult an Authorized Mazda
Dealer for details. If the push button
start system functions have been
deactivated, you can start the engine by
following the procedure indicated when
the key battery goes dead.
  Refer to Engine Start Function When
Key Battery is Dead on page 4-8 .
 


y After starting a cold engine, the engine
speed increases and a whining sound
from the engine compartment can be
heard.
  This is for improved exhaust gas
puri¿ cation and does not indicate any
parts defect.
 


y Engine-starting is controlled by the
spark ignition system.
  This system meets all Canadian
Interference-Causing Equipment
Standard requirements regulating the
impulse electrical ¿ eld strength of radio
noise.

1. Make sure you are carrying the key.
2. Occupants should fasten their seat
belts.
3. Make sure the parking brake is on. 4. Continue to press the brake pedal
¿ rmly until the engine has completely
started.
5. Put the vehicle in park (P). If you must
restart the engine while the vehicle is
moving, shift into neutral (N).
N O T E
The starter will not operate if the selector
lever is not in P or N and the brake pedal
is not depressed suf¿ ciently.

6. Verify that the KEY indicator light
(green) (if equipped) in the instrument
cluster and the push button start
indicator light (green) illuminate.

y When the engine is force-started, the
KEY warning light (red) (if equipped)
remains illuminated and the push button
start indicator light (amber) remains

(green) (if equipped) and the push
button start indicator light (green) do
not illuminate.

7. Press the push button start after both
the KEY indicator light (green) (if
equipped) in the instrument cluster and
the push button start indicator light
(green) illuminate.
N O T E
 


y After starting the engine, the push
button start indicator light (amber)
turns off and the ignition switches to the
ON position.
 


y After pressing the push button start and
before the engine starts, the operation
sound of the fuel pump motor from near
the fuel tank can be heard, however, this
does not indicate a malfunction.

8. After starting the engine, let it idle for
about ten seconds.
N O T E
 


y Whether the engine is cold or warm, it
should be started without the use of the
accelerator.
 


y If the engine does not start the ¿ rst
time, refer to Starting a Flooded Engine
under Emergency Starting. If the engine
still does not start, have your vehicle
inspected by an Authorized Mazda
Dealer (page 7-23 ).

Engine Start Function When Key
Battery is Dead
CAUTION
When starting the engine by holding
the transmitter over the push button
start due to a dead key battery or a
malfunctioning key, be careful not
to allow the following, otherwise the
signal from the key will not be received
correctly and the engine may not start.
 


¾ Metal parts of other keys or metal
objects touch the key.
 

 


¾ Spare keys or keys for other vehicles
equipped with an immobilizer
system touch or come near the key.
 

 


¾ Devices for electronic purchases,
or security passage touch or come
near the key.
