Mazda CX-5 Manual page 115

NOTE
The jam-safe equipment does not activate
during easy closure operation when the
power liftgate is between the near-shut
position and fully closed position.
When the power liftgate is moving in the
open/close direction and an obstruction is
detected, the beep sound will be heard and
the liftgate moves in the reverse direction
and stops.
Liftgate easy closure
The Easy Closure system automatically
closes the liftgate completely from the
near-shut position.
This system also operates when the liftgate
is closed manually.
WARNING
When closing a liftgate, always keep hands
and fingers away from the liftgate:
Placing hands or fingers around a liftgate is
dangerous because the liftgate closes
automatically from the near-shut position,
which could cause hands and fingers to be
pinched and injured.
NOTE
If the electric liftgate opener is pressed

while the easy closure function is
operating, the liftgate can be opened.
If the liftgate is opened/closed

repeatedly in a short period of time, the
easy closure function may not operate.
Wait for about 2 seconds and then try
again.

▼ Luggage Compartment Cover
Luggage Compartment Cover
Use the luggage compartment cover to
conceal cargo or luggage. The luggage
compartment cover can be stored under
the luggage board.
WARNING
Do not place anything on top of the
luggage compartment cover:
Placing luggage or other cargo on top of
the luggage compartment cover is
dangerous. During sudden braking or a
collision, the cargo could become a
projectile that could hit and injure
someone.
CAUTION
Make sure the luggage compartment cover
is firmly secured. If it is not firmly secured, it
could unexpectedly disengage resulting in
injury.
NOTE
If you attempt to open the liftgate under

cold weather conditions with the
luggage compartment cover attached,
the damper function may not operate
normally and the liftgate may be
difficult to raise. The liftgate can be
opened more easily under cold weather
conditions if the luggage compartment
cover is not attached.
