Push-Starting
Do not push-start your Mazda.
WARNING:
Never tow a vehicle to start it:
Towing a vehicle to start it is
dangerous. The vehicle being towed
could surge forward when its engine
starts, causing the two vehicles to
collide. The occupants could be
injured.
CAUTION:
Do not push-start a vehicle that has
a manual transmission. It can
damage the emission control system.
NOTE:
You can't start a vehicle with an automatic
transmission by pushing it.
