Master key Valet key
Here's what the keys are used for:
Lock Operates Master key Valet key
Ignition switch and steering column lock Yes Yes
Driver's door Yes Yes
Glove box Yes No
Trunk lid Yes No
If you must leave your vehicle with another person, such as a parking attendant, protect
items by locking the glove box, and trunk lid with the master key. Keep that key and give
the other person only the valet key.
A code number is stamped on the plate attached to the key set; detach this plate and store it
in a safe place (not in the vehicle) for use if you need to make a replacement key.
Also write down the code number and keep it in another safe and handy place, but not in
the vehicle.
If your key is lost, consult your Authorized Mazda Dealer with the code number ready.
