Mazda 3 Owners Manual: Moonroof
The moonroof can be opened or closed electrically only when the ignition is switched ON.
| WARNING
Do not let passengers stand up or
extend part of the 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 tilt/slide switch.
To stop tilting partway, press the tilt/slide switch.
To close to the desired position, press the tilt/slide switch in the forward direction.
Slide Operation
To fully open automatically, momentarily press the tilt/slide switch in the backward direction.
To stop sliding partway, press the tilt/slide switch.
To close to the desired position, press the tilt/slide switch in the forward direction.
Power Moonroof Reset Procedure
If the battery is disconnected, the moonroof will not operate. The moonroof will not operate correctly until it is reset.
Carry out the following procedure to reset the moonroof and resume operation:
- Switch the ignition ON.
- Press the tilt switch, to partially tilt open the rear of the moonroof.
- Repeat Step 2. The rear of the moonroof tilts open to the fully open position, then closes a little.
NOTE If the reset procedure is performed while the moonroof is in the slide position (partially open) it will close before the rear tilt 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.
