The convertible top may be constricted if it
is left retracted for a long period.

constricted, it may be difficult to hook the
top latch striker to the anchor.

Make sure the convertible top is securely
locked by pushing up on it. If it still sounds
loose (rattles) after being locked by the top
latch, have it inspected at an Authorized
Mazda Dealer.

coupler if it has been disconnected.
NOTE
If the coupler was not plugged in the rear
