Emergency Operation for Starting
the Engine

If the KEY warning light (red) illuminates,
or the push button start indicator light
(amber) flashes, this could indicate that
the engine may not start using the usual
starting method (for vehicles with a type
A/type B instrument cluster (page 7-28),
messages are displayed in the instrument
cluster). Have your vehicle inspected at an

Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon as
possible. If this occurs, the engine can be
force-started. Press and hold the push
button start until the engine starts. Other
procedures necessary for starting the
engine such as having the key in the cabin,
and depressing the brake pedal are
required.
