Moonroof
* Some models.
The moonroof can be opened or closed electrically only when the ignition switch is in the ON position.
WARNING:
Do not let passengers stand up or
extend part of their body through the
open moonroof while the vehicle is
moving:
Extending the head, arms, or other
parts of the body through the
moonroof 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 moonroof:
A closing moonroof 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.
NOTE:
Before washing your Mazda, make sure the
moonroof 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 moonroof before operating it to
avoid water penetration which could cause
rust and water damage to your headliner.
Tilt Operation
The rear of the moonroof can be tilted open to provide more ventilation.
To fully tilt automatically, momentarily press the rear of the tilt switch.
To stop tilting partway, press any part of the tilt or slide switch.
To close to the desired position, press the front of the tilt or slide switch.
Slide Operation
To fully open automatically, momentarily press the rear of the slide switch.
To stop sliding partway, press any part of the tilt or slide switch.
To close to the desired position, press the front of the tilt or slide switch.
Power Moonroof Re-set Procedure
If the battery is disconnected, the
moonroof may not operate correctly. The
moonroof will not operate correctly until
it is re-set.Carry out the following
procedure to re-set the moonroof and
resume operation:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON
position.
2. Press the rear of the tilt switch while the rear of the moonroof tilts open to the fully open position. The moonroof then closes a little.
NOTE:
If the re-set procedure is performed while the
moonroof is in the slide position (partially
open) it closes before the rear tilts opens.
Sunshade
The sunshade can be opened and closed by hand.
The sunshade opens automatically when the moonroof is opened, but must be closed by hand.
CAUTION:
The sunshade does not tilt. To
avoid damaging the sunshade, do
not push up on it.
Do not close the sunshade while
the moonroof is opening. Trying to
force the sunshade closed could
damage it.
