qMaintenance
If you have a problem with the
immobilizer system or the key, consult an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
NOTE
The keys carry a unique electronic
l
code. For this reason, and to assure
your safety, obtaining replacement
key requires some waiting time.
They are only available through an
Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Always keep a spare key, in case one
l
is lost. If a key is lost, contact an
Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible.
If you lose a key, an Authorized
l
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.
qModification and Add-On
Equipment
Mazda cannot guarantee the immobilizer
system's operation if the system has been
modified or if any add-on equipment has
been installed to it.
CAUTION
To avoid damage to your vehicle, do
not modify the system or install any
add-on equipment to it.

Security System

Theft-Deterrent System

The optional theft-deterrent system is
designed to prevent your vehicle or its
contents from being stolen when all the
doors, hood, and liftgate are locked.
If forcible entry is attempted, the system
sounds the horn and flashes the hazard
warning lights.
NOTE
The theft-deterrent system operates
l
with the key or the keyless entry
system transmitter.
The system will not function unless
l
it is properly armed. To properly
secure the vehicle, always make sure
all the windows are completely
closed and all doors and the liftgate
are locked before leaving the vehicle.
Make sure the security indicator light
is flashing. Remember to take your
key and transmitter.
qOperation
System triggering conditions
The horn sounds intermittently and the
hazard warning lights flash for about 3
minutes when the system is triggered by
any one of the following:
Forcing open a door, the hood or the
l
liftgate.
Opening a door or the hood by
l
operating an inside door-lock knob or
the hood release handle.
If the system is triggered again, the lights
and horn will activate until a door or the
liftgate is unlocked with the key or with
the transmitter.
