NOTE

To allow the passenger occupant
classification sensor to function
properly, do not place and sit on an
additional seat cushion on the
passenger's seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional
seat cushion could cause sensor
interference.

If a small child is seated on the
passenger's seat, the warning beep may
not operate.

Mexico

If the vehicle speed exceeds about 20
km/h (12 mph) with the driver or
passenger's seat belt unfastened, a warning
beep sounds continuously. If the seat belt
remains unfastened, the beep sound stops
once and then continues for about 90
seconds. The beep stops after the driver or
passenger's seat belt is fastened.
Until a seat belt is fastened or a given
period of time has elapsed, the beep sound
will not stop even if the vehicle speed falls
below 20 km/h (12 mph).

NOTE

Placing heavy items on the passenger's
seat may cause the passenger's seat belt
warning function to operate depending
on the weight of the item.

To allow the passenger seat weight
sensor to function properly, do not place
and sit on an additional seat cushion on
the passenger's seat. The sensor may not
function properly because the additional
seat cushion could cause sensor
interference.

If a small child is seated on the
passenger's seat, the warning beep may
not operate.

Retractable Hardtop Warning Beep

When operating the retractable hardtop
switch, the warning beep is activated when
the retractable hardtop operation begins
and when it is completed.
If there is a problem with the retractable
hardtop, the warning beep is activated
continuously while operating the switch. If
the warning beep is activated continuously
while operating the switch, have the
vehicle inspected at an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

Ignition Not Switched Off (STOP)
Warning Beep

If the driver's door is opened with the
ignition switched to ACC, a beep will be
heard continuously in the cabin to notify
the driver that the ignition has not been
switched OFF (STOP). Under this
condition, the keyless entry system will
not operate, the vehicle cannot be locked,
and the battery voltage will be depleted.

Key Removed from Vehicle Warning
Beep

Vehicles with advanced keyless function

If the key is taken out of the vehicle while
the ignition is not switched OFF and all
the doors are closed, the beep which
sounds outside of the vehicle will be heard
6 times, the beep which sounds inside the
vehicle will be heard 6 times, and the
KEY warning light (red) in the instrument
cluster flashes continuously to notify the
