Trunk Light
The trunk light is on when the lid is open
and off when it’s closed. Your vehicle is equipped with a trunk
release handle that provides a means of
escape for children and adults in the event
they become locked inside the trunk.
No matter how careful adults might be
with keys and locking their cars, parents
should be aware that children may be
tempted to play around vehicles and use
the trunk as a hiding place.
Adults are advised to familiarize
themselves with the operation and
location of the release handle so that all
children can be told about it in an
appropriate way, keeping in mind that
most vehicles don’t have such handles.
NOTE
To prevent the battery from being
discharged, do not leave the trunk open
for a long period when the engine is
not running.

Opening the Trunk Lid from the
Inside
Pull the illuminated "T" shaped handle.
The handle is made of material that will
glow for hours in the darkness of the trunk
following a brief exposure to ambient
light.
The "T" shaped handle is located on the
inside of the trunk lid.Open Trunk Lid and Children:
Leaving the trunk lid open or leaving
children in the vehicle with the keys is
dangerous. Children could open the
trunk lid and climb inside resulting in
possible injury or death from heat
exposure. Close the trunk lid and do
not allow children to play inside the
vehicle.
Unattended Children and Pets:
Leaving children or animals
unattended in a parked vehicle is
dangerous. Babies left sleeping and
kids who lock themselves in cars or
trunks can die very quickly from heat
prostration. Don’t leave your children
or pets alone in a car at any time.
Don’t leave the car, the trunk
unlocked. Always keep the car from
being a tempting place to play by
locking doors and the trunk, and
keeping the keys where children won’t
play with them.

WARNING
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.
