Immobilizer System
The immobilizer system allows the engine
to start only with a key the system
recognises.
If someone attempts to start the engine
with an unrecognised key, the engine will
not start, thereby helping to prevent the
theft of your vehicle.
If you have a problem with the
immobilizer system or the key, consult an
Authorised Mazda Repairer.
CAUTION
l
Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could
void the user's authority to operate
the equipment.
l
To avoid damage to the key, do not:
l
Drop the key.
l
Get the key wet.
l
Expose the key to any kind of
magnetic field.
l
Expose the key to high
temperatures on places such as the
instrument panel or bonnet, under
direct sunlight.
l
If the engine does not start with the
correct key, and the security
indicator light keeps illuminating or
flashing, the system may have a
malfunction. Consult an Authorised
Mazda Repairer.
CAUTION
When starting the engine do not allow
the following, as the engine may not
start due to the electronic signal from
the ignition key not being transmitted
correctly.
l
A key ring rests on the key grip.
l
Metal parts of other keys or metal
objects touch the key grip.
l
Spare keys or keys for other vehicles
equipped with an immobilizer
system touch or come near the key.
