The sunroof can be opened or closed when operating the overhead tilt/slide switch at the front seats.
Do not let passengers stand up or extend part of the body through the open sunroof while the vehicle is moving:
Extending the head, arms, or other parts of the body through the sunroof is dangerous. The head or arms could hit something while the vehicle is moving. This could cause serious injury or death.
Never allow children to play with the tilt/slide switch:
The tilt/slide switch would allow children to operate the sunroof unintentionally, which could result in serious injury if a child's hands, head or neck becomes caught by the sunroof.
Make sure the opening is clear before closing the sunroof:
A closing sunroof is dangerous. The hands, head, or even neck of a person, especially a child, could be caught in it as it closes, causing serious injury or even death.
Do not sit on or put heavy items on the area where the sunroof opens and closes. Otherwise, the sunroof could be damaged.
Do not open or close the sunroof forcefully during freezing temperatures or snowfall. Otherwise, the sunroof could be damaged.
The sunshade does not tilt. To avoid damaging the sunshade, do not push it up.
Do not close the sunshade while the sunroof is opening. Trying to force the sunshade closed could damage it.
The sunroof can be opened or closed electrically only when the ignition is switched ON.
Before leaving the vehicle or washing your Mazda, make sure the sunroof is completely closed so that water does not get inside the cabin area.
After washing your Mazda or after it rains, wipe the water off the sunroof before operating it to avoid water penetration which could cause rust and water damage to your headliner.
Tilt Operation
The rear of the sunroof can be tilted open to provide more ventilation.
To fully tilt automatically, momentarily press the tilt/slide switch.
To stop tilting partway, press the tilt/slide switch.
To close to the desired position, press the tilt/slide switch in the forward direction.
When the sunroof is already slid open and you want to tilt it open, first close the sunroof and then do a tilt operation.
Slide Operation
To fully open automatically, momentarily press the tilt/slide switch in the backward direction.
To stop sliding partway, press the tilt/slide switch.
To close to the desired position, press the tilt/slide switch in the forward direction.
When the sunroof is already tilted open and you want to slide it open, first close the sunroof and then do a slide operation.
If the sunroof does not operate normally, do the following procedure:
Switch the ignition ON.
Press the tilt switch, to partially tilt open the rear of the sunroof.
Repeat Step 2. The rear of the sunroof tilts open to the fully open position, then closes a little.
If the reset procedure is performed while the sunroof is in the slide position (partially open) it will close before the rear tilt opens.
The sunshade can be opened and closed by hand.
The sunshade opens at the same time as the sunroof slides open, but it must be closed by hand.
