Opening the Hood
1. With the vehicle parked, pull the
release handle to unlock the hood.
Make sure the fuel-filler cap is
tightened securely. The check engine
light may illuminate on when the cap
isn’t tightened securely. If the light
remains on (even after you have
tightened the cap securely, driven, and
restarted the engine several times), it
may indicate a different problem.
Contact an Authorized Mazda Dealer
as soon as possible.
CAUTION
Hood
Closed and Securely Locked Hood:
A hood that is not closed and securely
locked is dangerous as it could fly
open while the vehicle is moving and
block the driver’s vision which could
result in a serious accident. Always
check that the hood is closed and
securely locked.
