Fuel-Filler Lid and Cap
Fuel Spray:
Fuel spray is dangerous. Fuel can
burn skin and eyes and cause illness
when ingested. Fuel spray is released
when there is pressure in the fuel
tank and the fuel cap is removed too
quickly. When removing the fuel cap,
loosen the cap slightly and wait for
any hissing to stop. Then remove it.
Fuel Vapor:
Fuel vapor is dangerous. It could be
ignited by sparks or flames causing
serious burns and injuries. Before
refueling, stop the engine, and always
keep sparks and flames away from the
filler neck.
Always use only a genuine Mazda fuel
cap or an approved equivalent,
available at Authorized Mazda
Dealers. 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.

Security System
The theft-deterrent system is designed to
prevent your vehicle or its contents from
being stolen when all the doors, hood, and
trunk lid are locked.
If forcible entry is attempted, the system
sounds the horn and flashes the hazard
warning lights and headlights. It also
makes the starter inoperable.
The system won’t function unless it’s
properly armed. So when you leave the
vehicle, lock all the doors, close all the
windows, take your key, your transmitter,
and make sure the security indicator light
is flashing.

Operation
What turns it on:
•Forcing open a door, the hood or the
trunk lid.
•Unlocking the driver’s door with the
inside door-lock button or door-lock
switch.
•Opening a front or rear passenger’s
door , the hood or the trunk lid by
operating an inside door-lock button ,
the hood release handle or the trunk lid
release button.What it does:
•The horn sounds intermittently and the
hazard warning lights and headlights
flash.
•The starter is bypassed so that the
engine can’t be started.
•The alarm continues for about 3
minutes, then stops.
If the system is triggered again, the lights
and horn will activate and the starter will
not work until a door or the trunk lid is
unlocked with the key or with the
transmitter.

How to Arm the System
1. Remove the key from the ignition
switch.
2. Close the hood and the trunk lid. Then
close all doors and lock them from the
outside using the key in the door. If you
have the keyless entry system, press the
LOCK button on the transmitter.
3. The indicator light comes on for about
10 seconds. Then it flashes once every
3 seconds to indicate that the system is
fully armed. It continues to flash until
the theft-deterrent system is turned off.
Theft-Deterrent System
NOTE
The theft-deterrent system operates
without the keyless entry system
transmitter, as well.

Before Driving Your Mazda
Fuel and Engine Exhaust Precautions
Form No. 8Q47-EA-01F
Your vehicle is equipped with an emission control system (the catalytic converter is part of
this system) that enables your vehicle to comply with existing exhaust emissions
requirements.
Emission Control System
Parking Over Things That Burn:
Parking over or near anything inflammable, such as dry grass, is dangerous. Even
with the engine turned off, the exhaust system could ignite it because the exhaust
system gets very hot during normal use. A resulting fire could cause serious injury or
death. Never park over or near anything inflammable.
Ignoring the following precautions could cause lead to accumulate on the catalyst inside
the converter or cause the converter to get very hot. Either condition will damage the
converter and cause poor performance.
•USE ONLY UNLEADED FUEL.
•Don’t drive your Mazda with any sign of engine malfunction.
•Don’t coast with the ignition switch turned off.
•Don’t descend steep grades in gear with the ignition switch turned off.
•Don’t operate the engine at high idle for more than 5 minutes.
•Don’t tamper with the emission control system. All inspections and adjustments must
be made by a qualified technician.
•Don’t try to push-start or pull-start your vehicle.
NOTE
Under U.S. federal law, any modification to the original-equipment emission control
system before the first sale and registration of a vehicle is subject to penalties. In some
states, such modification made on a used vehicle is also subject to penalties.
