3 - Before Driving | Doors and Locks
NOTE
* The vehicle lock-out prevention feature prevents you from locking yourself out of the vehicle.
(European models)
All doors and the liftgate/boot lid will automatically unlock if they are locked using the power door locks with any door open.
If all the doors are closed even though the liftgate/boot lid is open, all the doors will lock.
(Except European models)
All doors and the liftgate/boot lid will automatically unlock if they are locked using the power door locks
with any door or the liftgate open.
* (Door unlock (control) system with collision detection)
This system automatically unlocks the doors and the liftgate/boot lid in the event the vehicle is involved in an accident to allow passengers to get out of the vehicle immediately and prevent being trapped inside.
While the ignition is switched ON and in the event the vehicle receives an impact strong enough to inflate the air bags, all the doors and the liftgate/boot lid are automatically unlocked after about 6 seconds have elapsed from the time of the accident.
The doors and the liftgate/boot lid may not unlock depending on how an impact is applied, the force of the impact, and other conditions of the accident. If door-related systems or the battery is malfunctioning, the doors and the liftgate/boot lid will not unlock.
Locking, Unlocking with Key
All doors and the liftgate/boot lid lock automatically when the driver's door is locked using the key.
They all unlock when the driver's door is unlocked using the key. Turn the key toward the front to lock, toward the back to unlock.
Double Locking System *
The double locking system is designed to prevent someone who has broken into your vehicle from opening the door from the inside.
If you have any problems with the double locking system, consult an expert repairer, we recommend an Authorised Mazda Repairer.
