Mazda CX-3: Automatic Transaxle / Shift-Lock System
The shift-lock system prevents shifting out
of P unless the brake pedal is depressed.
To shift from P:
- Depress and hold the brake pedal.
- Start the engine.
- Press and hold the lock-release button.
- Move the selector lever.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched to ACC or
the ignition is switched off, the selector
lever cannot be shifted from P position.
The ignition cannot be switched to OFF
if the selector lever is not in P position.
Shift-Lock Override
If the selector lever will not move from P
using the proper shift procedure, continue
to hold down the brake pedal.
- Remove the shift-lock override cover
using a cloth-wrapped flat head
screwdriver.
- Insert a screwdriver and push it down.
- Press and hold the lock-release button.
- Move the selector lever.
Take the vehicle to an Authorized Mazda
Dealer to have the system checked.
Various Lockouts:
- Indicates that you must
depress the brake pedal and hold in the lock-release
button to shift (The ignition must be switched ON)...
The shift position indication in the
instrument cluster illuminates.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights.
The selector lever must be in P or N
position to operate the starter...
Other information:
The manual shift mode gives you the feel
of driving a manual transaxle vehicle by
allowing you to operate the selector lever
manually. This allows you to control
engine rpm and torque to the drive wheels
much like a manual transaxle when more
control is desired...
If the windows become covered with an
oily, greasy, or waxy film, clean them with
glass cleaner. Follow the directions on the
container.
CAUTION
Do not scrape or scratch the inside of the
window glass. It could damage the
thermal filaments.
When washing the inside of the window
glass, use a soft cloth dampened in
lukewarm water, gently wiping the
thermal filaments...
