•  Turn the key (or push-to-start button) to the ignition position and wait until the L.E.D. inside

  After the vehicle is in the ignition position, and the Mazda logo 

is present (dim), put the vehicle in reverse to activate the camera. Wait until ‘Please Check 
Surroundings For Safety” is shown on the radio display, then put the vehicle in the park 
position. This process should take within 30 seconds.

position, disconnect the interface, check all connections, reconnect the interface, and then try again.
