Mazda 3 Owners Manual: Operational Range
The system operates only when the driver is in the vehicle or within operational range while the key is being carried.

- Starting the engine may be possible even if the key is outside of the vehicle and extremely close to a door and window, however, always start the engine from the driver's seat.
- If the vehicle is started and the key is not in the vehicle, the vehicle will not restart after it is shut off and the ignition is switched to off.
- The luggage compartment/trunk is out of the assured operational range, however, if the key (transmitter) is operable the engine will start.
