Mazda 2: Liftgate/Boot Lid

Mazda2 Owners Manual

WARNING

Never allow a person to ride in the luggage compartment/boot: Allowing a person to ride in the luggage compartment/boot is dangerous. The person in the luggage compartment/boot could be seriously injured or killed during sudden braking or a collision.

Do not drive with the liftgate/boot lid open: Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle is dangerous. An open liftgate/boot lid in a moving vehicle will cause exhaust gas to be drawn into the cabin. This gas contains CO (carbon monoxide), which is colourless, odourless, and highly poisonous, and it can cause loss of consciousness and death. Moreover, an open liftgate/boot lid could cause occupants to fall out in an accident.

Do not stack or leave loaded luggage unsecured in the luggage compartment: Otherwise, the luggage may move or collapse, resulting in injury or an accident. In addition, do not load luggage higher than the seatbacks. It may affect the side or rear fi eld of view.

CAUTION

  • Before opening the liftgate/boot lid, remove any snow and ice accumulation on it. Otherwise, the liftgate/boot lid could close under the weight of the snow and ice resulting in injury.
  • Be careful when opening/closing the liftgate/boot lid during strong winds. If a strong gust blows against the liftgate/boot lid, it could close suddenly resulting in injury.
  • Fully open the liftgate/boot lid and make sure that it stays open. If the liftgate/boot lid is only opened partially, it could slam shut by vibration or wind gusts resulting in injury.
  • When loading or unloading luggage in the luggage compartment/boot, turn off the engine. Otherwise, you could get burned by the heat of the exhaust gas.
  • Be careful not to apply excessive force to the damper stay on the liftgate such as by putting your hand on the stay. Otherwise, the damper stay may bend and affect the liftgate operation.

Luggage Compartment

Luggage compartment cover (Hatchback)*

WARNING

Do not place anything on top of 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 such as a rollover. Tie down all heavy objects, whether luggage or cargo, using the tie down hooks.

Make sure luggage and cargo are secured before driving: Not securing cargo while driving is dangerous as it could move or be crushed during sudden braking or a collision and cause injury.

CAUTION

Make sure the luggage compartment cover is fi rmly secured. If it is not fi rmly secured, it could unexpectedly disengage resulting in injury.

The luggage compartment can be accessed by opening the liftgate when the straps are attached to the sides of the liftgate.
