How to Start an Axela When the Key Fob Battery Dies?
2 Answers
When the Axela's key fob battery dies, you need to place the key in the designated key fob recognition area and then press the start button to ignite the engine. Vehicles equipped with push-button start systems have a specific key fob recognition spot inside the cabin. When the key fob battery is depleted, placing it in this designated area allows the vehicle to start normally. The Axela is an automobile produced by Changan Mazda, representing the third model featuring the new-generation "Skyactiv" technology and the "KODO: Soul of Motion" design philosophy. Regarding dimensions, the Axela measures 4582mm in length, 1795mm in width, and 1458mm in height.
The other day my car key suddenly ran out of battery, which was really frustrating. Fortunately, the Mazda Axela has an emergency start function, and you just need to remember three steps: first, use the small latch on the back of the key to take out the mechanical key and open the door; after sitting in the driver's seat, press the dead remote key firmly against the start button, making sure there’s no gap; finally, press the start button while holding the brake to start the car. Remember to replace the button battery as soon as possible—the CR2035 model available at supermarkets will work. There’s also an emergency start symbol below the steering wheel, which can be a lifesaver in critical moments. It’s best to keep a spare battery in the glove box—I once relied on this during winter.
