Windows
Power Windows
The ignition must be switched ON for the power windows to operate.
Make sure the opening is clear before closing a window:
Closing a power window is dangerous. A person's hands, head, or even neck could be caught by the window and result in serious injury or even death. This warning applies especially to children.
Never allow children to play with power window switches:
Power window switches that are not locked with the power window lock switch would allow children to operate power windows unintentionally, which could result in serious injury if a child's hands, head or neck becomes caught by the window.
To prevent burning out the fuse and damaging the power window system, do not open or close more than three windows at once.
-
A power window may no longer open/close if you continue to press the switch after fully opening/closing the power window. If the power window does not open/close, wait a moment and then operate the switch again.
-
When driving with only one of the rear windows open, your ears might experience a resonating sound. However, this does not indicate a problem. The sound can be reduced by slightly opening a front window or by changing the size of the rear window opening.
Operating the Power Windows (Type A)
-
Each passenger window can be operated with each door switch when the power window lock switch on the driver's door is in the unlocked position (Search).
-
Each passenger window can also be operated using the master control switches on the driver's door.
Normal opening/closing
To open the window to the desired position, lightly hold down the switch.
To close the window to the desired position, lightly pull up the switch.
Auto-opening/closing
To fully open the window automatically, press the switch completely down.
To fully close the window automatically, pull the switch completely up.
To stop the window partway, pull or press the switch in the opposite direction and then release it.
Power window system initialization procedure
If the battery was disconnected during vehicle maintenance, or for other reasons (such as a switch continues to be operated after the window is fully open/closed), the window will not fully open and close automatically.
Resetting of the automatic function can be performed using the master control switches or each passenger door switch.
The power window auto function reset procedure can be done on all door switches. The power window auto function will only resume on the power window that has been reset.
-
Switch the ignition ON.
-
Make sure that the power window lock switch located on the driver's door is not depressed.
-
Press the switch and fully open the window.
-
Pull up the switch to fully close the window and continue holding the switch for about 2 seconds after the window fully closed.
-
Repeat Steps 3-4 for the front passenger power window while seated in the front passenger seat.
-
Repeat Steps 3-4 for both the left and right rear power windows while seated in the rear seat.
-
Make sure that the power windows operate correctly using the door switches.
After the system has been re-initialized, each passenger window can be fully opened or closed automatically using the master control switches.
Jam-safe window
If a person's hands, head or an object blocks the window during the manual closing operation or the auto-closing operation, the window will stop and open halfway.
Make sure nothing blocks the window just before it reaches the fully closed position or while fully holding up the power window switch:
Blocking the power window just before it reaches the fully closed position or while fully holding up the power window switch is dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function cannot prevent the window from closing all the way. If fingers are caught, serious injuries could occur.
-
Depending on driving conditions, a closing power window could stop and start opening when the window feels a shock that is similar to something blocking it.
In the event the jam-safe function activates and the power window cannot be closed automatically, pull and hold the switch fully and the window will close.
-
The jam-safe window function does not operate until the system has been reset.
Engine-off power window operation
The power window can be operated for about 40 seconds after the ignition is switched from ON to off with all doors closed. If any door is opened, the power window will stop operating.
For engine-off operation of the power window, the switch must be held up firmly throughout window closure because the auto-closing function will be inoperable.

Normal opening/closing
To open the window to the desired position, lightly hold down the switch.
To close the window to the desired position, lightly pull up the switch.
Auto-opening/closing

To fully close the window automatically, pull the switch completely up, then release. The window will fully close automatically.
To stop the window partway, pull or press the switch in the opposite direction and then release it.

(Without door-lock switch/outer mirror folding switch)
(Type A)
When the power window lock switch is in the locked position, the light on each power window switch, except for the driver's power window switch, turns off. The light may be difficult to see depending on the surrounding brightness.
Sunroof (Some Models)
The sunroof can be opened or closed electrically only when the ignition is switched ON.
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.
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.
Before 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 fully close automatically, momentarily press the tilt/slide switch in the forward direction.
To stop tilting partway, press the tilt/slide switch.
Slide Operation
To fully open automatically, momentarily press the tilt/slide switch in the backward direction.
To fully close automatically, momentarily press the tilt/slide switch in the forward direction.
To stop sliding partway, press the tilt/slide switch.
Power Sunroof Reset Procedure
If the battery is disconnected, the sunroof will not operate. The sunroof will not operate correctly until it is reset. Carry out the following procedure to reset the sunroof and resume operation:
-
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.
Jam-safe Sunroof
If a person's hands, head or an object blocks the sunroof while it is closing, the sunroof will stop and move in the open direction.
Make sure nothing blocks the sunroof just before it reaches the fully closed position:
Blocking the sunroof just before it reaches the closed position is dangerous.
In this case, the jam-safe function cannot prevent the sunroof from closing. If fingers are caught, serious injuries could occur.
-
Depending on driving conditions, a closing sunroof could stop and start opening when the sunroof feels a shock that is similar to something blocking it.
-
The sunroof's jam-safe function does not work until initialization is finished.
Sunshade
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.
-
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.
