of the liftgate with a flathead
screwdriver.
Placing Cargo on the Cover:
Placing luggage or other cargo on top
of the luggage compartment cover is
dangerous. During sudden braking or
a collision, the cargo could become a
projectile that could hit and injure
someone. The vehicle has a light
weight luggage compartment cover to
keep the contents of your luggage
area out of sight; it will not retain
heavy objects that are not tied down in
an accident like a rollover. Tie down
all heavy objects, whether luggage or
cargo, using the tie down hooks.
Don’t place anything on top of the
cover.

luggage and cargo is secured before
driving.
Lever
After performing this emergency
measure, have the vehicle inspected at
an Authorized Mazda Dealer as soon
as possible.
CAUTION
Make sure the luggage compartment
cover is firmly secured. If it is not
firmly secured, it could unexpectedly
disengage resulting in injury.
