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.

Close Warning

 


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 stop tilting partway, press the tilt/slide switch.

To close to the desired position, press the tilt/slide switch in the forward direction.

To fully open automatically, momentarily press the tilt/slide switch in the backward direction.

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:

  1. Switch the ignition ON.

  2. Press the tilt switch, to partially tilt open the rear of the sunroof.

  3. 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.

Close Note

Sunshade

The sunshade can be opened and closed by hand.

 

The sunshade opens automatically when the sunroof is opened, but must be closed by hand.

 


  • The sunshade does not tilt. To avoid damaging the sunshade, do not push up on it.

  • Do not close the sunshade while the sunroof is opening. Trying to force the sunshade closed could damage it.
