CAUTION

l

Do not drive the vehicle with the
hardtop open halfway.

l

Do not perform the procedure in a
strong wind as it could cause an
unexpected accident.

l

Two adults are required to perform
the procedure, especially when
lifting up the hardtop. Do not do it
alone so as not to cause injury or
vehicle damage.

l

Some steps in the procedure require
using multiple tools at the same time
and a certain level of technical
expertise. In addition, holding your
body extended over the car can result
in muscle strains so Mazda
recommends having the hardtop
checked at an Authorized Mazda
Dealer.

NOTE

Use a suitable means of illumination,
such as a flashlight, to improve
visibility under the deck lid when
performing this task.

Before closing manually

1. Park on a level surface off the right-of-

way and firmly set the parking brake.

2. Put a vehicle with an automatic

transmission in Park (P), a manual
transmission in Reverse (R) or 1, and
turn off the engine.

3. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK

position while depressing the brake
pedal.

4. Turn on the hazard warning flasher if it

is needed.

WARNING

Verify that the ignition switch is in the
LOCK position before manually
operating the hardtop:
Manually retracting the hardtop with
the ignition switch not in the LOCK
position is dangerous as the retractor
motors could turn on suddenly and
cause injury resulting from hands or
fingers being pinched in the
mechanism.
