NOTE
• The keys carry a unique electronic

They are only available through an

• Always keep a replacement key, in
case one is lost. If a key is lost,
contact an Authorized Mazda

• If you lose a key, an Authorized
Mazda Dealer will reset the
electronic codes of your remaining
keys and immobilizer system.
Starting the vehicle with a key that
has not been reset is not possible.
