Security System
Mazda cannot guarantee the immobilizer and the theft-deterrent system's operation if the system has been modified or if any add-on equipment has been installed.
Warnings and Cautions for Using the Immobilizer System
-
Radio equipment like this is governed by laws in the United States.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

To avoid damage to the key, do not:
-
Drop the key.
-
Get the key wet.
-
Expose the key to any kind of magnetic field.
-
Expose the key to high temperatures on places such as the dashboard, under direct sunlight.
-
-
If the engine does not start with the correct key, and the security indicator light keeps illuminating or flashing, the system may have a malfunction. Consult an Authorized Mazda Dealer.
Theft-Deterrent System
If the theft-deterrent system detects an inappropriate entry into the vehicle, which could result in the vehicle or its contents being stolen, the alarm alerts the surrounding area of an abnormality by sounding the horn and flashing the hazard warning lights.
The system will not function unless it's properly armed. So when you leave the vehicle, follow the arming procedure correctly.
