Mazda 3 Owners Manual: Auto Lock/Unlock Function

• When the vehicle speed exceeds 20 km/h (12 mph), all doors and the liftgate lock automatically.

These functions can also be disabled so that they do not operate.

Auto lock/unlock function setting change using door-lock switch

The doors and the liftgate can be set to lock or unlock automatically by selecting any one of the functions from the following table and using the driver's doorlock switch on the interior door panel.
