Knowing Your Mazda Doors and Locks NOTE l qPower Window Lock Switch With the lock switch in the unlocked position, all power windows on each door can be operated. With the lock switch in the locked position, only the driver's side power window can be operated. Locked position l Depending on driving conditions, a closing power window could stop and start opening when the window feels a shock that is similar to something blocking it. In the event the jam-safe function activates and the power window cannot be closed automatically, pull and hold the switch fully and the window will close. The jam-safe window function does not operate until the system is re-initialized. Engine-off power window operation The power window can be operated for about 40 seconds after the ignition switch is turned from the ON position to the ACC or LOCK position with all doors closed. If any door is opened, the power window will be inoperable. NOTE l Unlocked position l For engine-off operation of the power window, the switch must be held up firmly throughout window closure because the auto-closing function will be inoperable. The two-step down function is inoperable during engine-off operation. WARNING Unless a passenger needs to operate a power window, keep the power window lock switch in the locked position: Unintentional power window operation is dangerous. A person's hands, head, or neck could be caught by the window and result in serious injury. qOpening/Closing the Power Windows from Outside Both power windows can be opened or closed from outside the vehicle after the doors are closed. The power windows may be operated when the power window lock switch on the driver's door is in the lock or unlocked position. 3-38
